I am an actor. This teacher is wonderful.
Brilliant, I also really appreciate the lengths, the producers went to bring parts of the talk into the forframe. appreciate that.
*Best video i've ever seen about acting lessons!! The student's performances were incredible. It's just i couldn't hear them and the audience very well.*

Yyeess!! Totally agree. 26:10 Ken discussed my problem perfectly and so of course I subscribed and can thrive again.
incredible! so so happy to get to see this!
I stumbled across this video by accident and started watching it as a way to procrastinate more than anything but now I'm really glad I did because even though I'm only about half an hour into the video I already feel like I can learn so much from the lecture! And I'm not even an acting student... I do theatre studies at uni and am currently very lost what I actually want to do with the things I've learned in the past few years and whilst watching this probably won't help me answer that question it does wonders in terms of boosting confidence and, if anything else, helped me to once again realise that working at a theatre one way or another is and always will be what I want to do with my life. So, thank you so much for uploading this!

@@william2154I am! I finished my bachelor’s degree in theatre studies and also did a master’s degree in arts management and now I’m working in the PR/marketing department of a fairly big theatre. So far so good 😌
This is such a gift.
Lovely. Thanks for posting this.
This is thoroughly insightful actually, & I find it integral that it’s a perennial accessory in concealing the art of acting regularly, I benefit from it profoundly.
Man united play superbly well together . This is comedy gold
Thank you so much for uploding this
I paused the video just to write this! I am learning so much from this amazing man and his students. I'm inspired! I'm becoming insightful to unlimited but, within reason, to infinite possibilities. It's a good thing to play to and with the audience. I'm learning to play to the audience with my energy so they have a good time. I'm learning to bring the correct energy into a scene! I'm learning to be curious and how many questions I have for the director. Time to click >
Beautiful! 👌
Thanks for this!
gosh only if this had subtitles. i love this! thank you for this
Very helpful 🙏🏽🙌🏾
Thank you SOOOOO much for uploading this talk! I have taken two pages of notes and lots of ideas for my KS3 and KS4 students. I especially loved the focus on the eyes, and on the other person (the two go together I think) You see, I had to teach IGCSE Drama wearing covid masks...talk of challenge, effort and growth mindset! I think we should ALWAYS teach at first with nose-and-mouth masks, so that it all goes into the eyes. My students got As and A*s, and I think it is because the energy of their acting was in the heart (the eyes being the mirror thru which we see that belief). THANK YOU!

Even pranksters need acting technique! 🎭👌
All great acting teachers overlap all techniques ever taught. Different terminology but the synthesis of all good teachers intercects and is welcomed.
Hello, my friend is going to be a drama coach for age uk. Any tips you can help her with or could she have a conversation with you?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
a lot of Michael Chekov techniques used but not credited here...
Hiya, what’s the name of the play at 1:35:49 ? I’m auditioning for acting school next week and want to perform that monologue

Hi! Did you ever find out what play it was? I was wondering as well!

*Did the students learn a script by heart or did they just talk spontaneously?!*

they were mostly pieces of script they’d memorised but the one about the fundraiser was spontaneous talking

@1:04:05 sensational transformation.
“Why waste your life aspiring to mediocrity?” Beautiful
I have tremendous compassion for these students. This teacher is very, very British. Notice that he critiques and criticizes the students and gives them very little praise. It's a terrible way to encourage bravery in anyone.
Vis ways to come through a door- Il y a toute une gamme, toute une science, tout un style des coups de pieds au cul!
Nope!....movement does not help any actress or actors to be better actors. #Facts

Essentially, allowing movement while acting is a natural part of acting as one progresses?
