OMG, Jo. I don't know what happened, but within the first 30 seconds of watching your video, a weird idea swarmed the back of my mind, which is related to this main topic in your video presentation, and I quite honestly believe it would work for anyone trying to make sure the character they're playing is as believable as possible... 😊 Hint: it's not reinventing the wheel in our pursuit of beauty and all glowing perfection in our craft - it's been used by the greatest actors, that I'm certain about...
@@TheDailyMemesShow In the work we do we don't believe in techniques, methods or tricks. Those can keep you away from your presence and freedom. The way to be present is to reconnect with your true self and undo your social conditioning. How present and free do you currently feel when you act?
Thank you for sharing your point of view! It's true that acting is the art of being alive in the present moment (like in meditation). Are you an actor?
Hmm that is a bit too simply put… Meditation aids awareness of our senses which just covers one of the many areas of great acting. Yes it helps to strengthen your focus muscles but it’s purposeless if you don’t live to identify with your surroundings from a non self serving perspective. Meditation is detaching from your thoughts, acting is simultaneously attaching to your thoughts and being present.
I personaly feel this day by day as I learn acting through my personal experience doing small characters in web series tv shows and movies I learn meditation and acting are same and it's all about being in present thanku so much

Thank you Jo Kelly, I can understand if what is Being present, not just at the moment of being a character but in my own life. Such as right now, listening to you explain this and realizing my emotions for being at my own current job, feeling anxious, guilty and regretful for coming to work tipsy and sneaking out to get another drink. now as you said( I’m conditioned to think I have an issue, which I know I do. However, acknowledging it and feeling it, therefore being present) so now me realizing it, helps me understand. Understand how right at this moment I am using something else to release me from that mental and emotional prison where I am holding became my thoughts and how I actually feel. Or how I feel rather illiterate just stating all of this. Hoping this is a step forward and not backwards on how my addiction is doing so slowly. However, I understand.
I'm sorry you're going through that challenging situation in your life.

This makes so much sense and explains why so many older child actors push. Pushed to push by stage moms, agents, directors... They are trying so hard to please, be cute, sweet, etc. Forced to be in-authentic.... Yuck;(
Thank you for your knowledge. I took many notes. I will say, at first it was difficult for me to learn to disappear. It was definitely not easy due to my mental programs and obstacles. However, recently, I read the book: the subtle art of not giving a fuck by Mark Manson, and that helped a lot. I had to stop giving a fuck about being liked or what the other person may be thinking and just “listen” and “counteract”. This video validated me (:

I use these techniques when making a presentation or in meetings. Think of each line as a play in a football game (plays take about 6-8 seconds each). I have a script for each meeting. Then executive. Move on. Break everything into segments. I'm not actor, but it works in business too.

The problem comes Jo when someone like a director says to you..."hmm I don't think that's right! Or I think they would be more like this or less like that. So it just reinforces the problem.

There is literally no difference between great acting and the extreme point of meditation. Acting is meditation
Thank you for sharing your point of view! It's true that acting is the art of being alive in the present moment (like in meditation). Are you an actor?
@@JoKelly I am beginner actor. But I do read a lot on acting and listen to different opinions people have on acting.
Hmm that is a bit too simply put… Meditation aids awareness of our senses which just covers one of the many areas of great acting.
