CHAPTER 2: BEST STEPS TO BECOME AN ACTOR/ ACTRESS

 CHAPTER 2: BEST STEPS TO BECOME AN ACTOR/ ACTRESS

Normally, there are various full forms of actor...So what does actor mean???

Few claim that Actor's full form is:

A: ACTION                               A: ACTING                          
C: COLLABORATION           C: CONCENTRATION        
T: TONE                                    T: TIMING
O: ORATION                            O: OBSERVATION
R: RHYTHM                             R: REHEARSAL

Well, apart from this everyone has their own definition. Bharat's planet definition of ACTOR is somewhat different & unique from others: 

A: ATTENTIVE (IN EMOTIONS, ROMANCE & POSITIVE-NEGATIVE SHADES)
C: COOPERATIVE (IN TANDEM WITH THE CREW AS WELL AS THE SCRIPT)
T: TENDENCY & TECHNIQUE (WITH PROPER APPLICATION & TIMING)
O: OBSERVER WITH PERFECT DELIVERY (HIS DICTION & SPEECH QUALITY)
R: RESULT-ORIENTED (WITH THOROUGH PRACTICE & PROPER RHYTHM)
 
                                               ---------------------------------

For an ACTRESS our planet's definition is

A: ATTENTIVE (IN EMOTIONS, ROMANCE & POSITIVE-NEGATIVE SHADES)
C: COOPERATIVE (IN TANDEM WITH THE CREW AS WELL AS THE SCRIPT)
T: TENDENCY & TECHNIQUE (WITH PROPER APPLICATION & TIMING)
R: RESULT-ORIENTED (WITH THOROUGH PRACTICE & PROPER RHYTHM)
E: ELEGANT (STYLISH TO FIT INTO ANY ROLE FROM RUSTIC TO URBAN)
S: SCRUTINY (TO ANALYSE THE CHARACTER & DELIVER ACCURATELY)
S: SENTIMENTAL (THOROUGHLY ABSORBING SENTIMENTS AS PER SITUATION)

                                        ---------------------------------------------------

If these traits are missing in you, you have to develop those in your personality. This can be achieved or developed only through practice. 

THE MAIN IMPORTANT INGREDIENTS IN AN ACTOR/ACTRESS ARE:

• An actor/actress should be confident & ready to grab any role whether it is positive or negative. 

There are several instances where the actors have agreed to play a negative role & have gone to become superstars. The main thing inside it is to get under the skin of the character & don't fear about being considered as a villain forever. Your perfect acting would be judged by the audience who in reality makes you the star...

• Certain things which the actor/ actress needs to know:-

a) Driving

Most of the movies involve the protagonist to be driving the vehicle himself or herself whether there is a chase sequence or role of a driver

b) Dancing

As Bollywood movies full of fun with songs & dance, it is an important ingredient for an actor/actress (although not necessary) to know dancing.  

Nowadays, there are many forms of dancing like: Bollywood, Classical, Contemporary, Hip-hop, Lyrical Hip-hop, Locking-Popping, House,  Jive, Salsa, Ballet, Ball-dance, Jazz, Belly dance, Zumba & Gymnastic. ,Ultimately, lots of different forms are also coming in vogue. You can prepare for that in various dancing schools with the specialist choreographers

c) Horse-riding

In most of the movies, actors are offered role of horse-riding. It is necessary to get the training of that, although it is also provided on the set by the production houses

d) Action (Fight Training)

Mostly movies are action oriented where male/female protagonists as well as antagonists have to perform action as per the script

This is necessity for the actor although production houses hire action directors who train the actors. In most difficult scenes, stuntmen perform such scenes as duplicates. So not much to worry about action. Anyhow, early prepared is better prepared.

Okay folks!!! Tomorrow, we would come with 9 expressions of acting called as "Nau Ras"

Good bye & see you soon
