I forgot i was watching a performance and felt like a fly on the wall. They did great, they really did so well to feel and play off each other's emotions. Great job
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to set this up! Really appreciate the critique as well along. Definitely one of the most fun scenes I've gotten to do.
Totaly genuine scene! Like it was from real circumstances! Both parts formidable! Wow! 💯🙋 Hoooray! For Meisner and of course those involved in the scene excellent teachers too!
There are many things you can do to memorize your lines. Some actors like Anthony Hopkins reads the entire script 100 times, some read the script 3 to 4 times before they go to bed and 3 to 4 times when they wake up in the morning, some actors listen to their dialogue in the car while driving. You just have to find what works best for you.
I would have done the guys scene with a bit of humour too! Stumbling on the jacket hitting head on the door ouch! Then a bit rolling eyes cause its a bit akward then do the rest of that superb scene which those two did
I always see an issue with this type of coaching/teaching/acting and filming it. It works for theater, but for film, it's too much. There is a gigantic difference with what works for theater and film. Their acting is good. I would love this in a theater, but we are watching a filmed version and there is zero subtlety. Too much. And I see this in all of the this schools performed scene work. My advice is to shoot this from further away, like if we were in a theater, otherwise get the students to dial it back if we are going to see 3/4 shots or closer. Not that I'm an expert, it's just my opinion.

@@thehoudeschoolofacting5472 Yes, and their theater performances vs their film performances are vastly different. Keep the subtlety for film. "Do" less. Try stillness. Meisner is a fantastic acting technique. The actors in your classes are acting for the stage, but you are filming it. The wider the shot is, the better their performances look. Ask any film actor about how they dial it back for close-ups and medium close-ups.
Ughhhhhh, nothing against the actors they were phenomenal but all the dude had to do was write his email and walk away, stupid man! The actor was great because I felt so annoyed and mad at his character
I felt his goal was to actually have a relationship with her and was trying to make that happen with his continued engagement. I thought it was well done. (I sense you’re being sarcastic)
He'd already written his phone number and email down and left it on her dresser. He was genuinely confused by her behaviour and genuinely asking her why. Watch it a second time and you can see he wasn't trying to be a dick. It just looks like that from her POV. Very clever writing and amazing performances.

They had my full attention. I observed how well they were listening to each other making real connections. Great job!
Thank you! We are so glad you enjoyed the scene as much as us!
this scene is so incredibly well done, I was pulled in at every moment and choice these actors made.

Cause its not about acting! Its about delivering a scene from real life!
I would have done the guys scene with a bit of humour too! Stumbling on the jacket hitting head on the door ouch! Then a bit rolling eyes cause its a bit akward then do the rest of that superb scene which those two did
That’s the beautiful thing about acting. Everyone has their own point of view and own way of approaching a scene.
Oooh wow 😳😳
