Acting. (Good and Bad)

Acting. There's 2 type of acting in this world; Good acting and Bad acting.

So what makes a good actor?
There are many things that a good actor needs; First off, you need to be believable. Would you enjoy a film with actors whose acting isn't believable. You need to be patient; Rehearsal is for you to make mistakes, you're not going to be perfect straight away so you need to be patient for your acting to develop. The most important thing of all, for a good actor, is to enjoy the piece of theatre you are performing; to make it believeable, you have to show that you can connect with the piece, that you enjoy it and understand it. If you're not enjoying what you're doing, the audience will see that so they won't enjoy it either. Voice shows, not only confidence, but which status they are.

So what makes a bad actor?
Bad acting is proof of lack of imagination, practice and passion; Imagination is the thing that brings your piece to life. Without imagination, it will lack the fundamental tool to connect with the audience which will prevent the piece from developing well. Practice is 100% needed to succeed in acting; you will need to dedicate time for it but, if you practice enough, it will be proven successful in your good acting. Finally, passion is needed just as much as the other characteristics; you need  to be passionate, in acting and in, what you're doing for the characters to be brought to life, in the best way as you can. You also need to be aware of the other actors and make sure you listen to the other actors; it will flow better in this way.

In my acting, I think I will need to create an emotional bond between the character and I, for my charater to develop and become more naturalistic. I am happy to give up my time for rehearsals so I can do the best I can for the play. I believe that I can improve by doing both of these things and by showing my passion for acting in my work.

In order to connect with my character, I believe that I will have to find out background information such as, where they live, how they talk, what they're apperence is and family life. I believe that learning more about family life will help me understand where the character has come from and how they have been brought up so I will understand why they act as they do and why they have the other characteristics.
