I'm curious, what are a few tips for doing an American accent? For context, I've got a Suffolk/Essex accent. You don't have to get very specific, just a few pointers as I'm wanting to broaden my accent range.
hello? how do actresses do heavy mouth breathing speaking say after foot chase or while heavy make out scene. breathing through mouth? what about female singer breathing heavily mouth after performing live? do you experiment tantrically too? id love to see you live q&a ask you some breathing questions. like if you do full cardio hiit workout can you have coregasm during recovery mouth breathing but would you faint cause breathing making you lightheaded?
Always keep an element of control, I don’t want any actors fainting (!) I’m fascinated about using breath in performance both for theatre and TV. I don’t currently do live q&a’s but it’s something I’ll think about for the future.
@@TheDramaCoach what about the kissing scenes? like in Romance? do you find breathing arousing sexy? can you show how to get out of breath and calm it down
I have my grade six exam this week and am stuck on the questions specifically, do you know how long i have to talk about the three objectives for and any other tips? this was very helpfull
I am glad this was helpful. Be prepared to speak with detail (but don’t waffle! examiners want concise answers but may well prompt / ask for more). And do t panic if they do or don’t ask further questions…sometimes they are honestly interested. I really hope it goes well for you. Good luck!
I often think the breathing question can be hard for grade 6 students…make sure you can explain how you use your breath. And how / when / why you change it to create your character/objective.
A good question. No not directly, but they will play a part. Normally with Stanislavski’s system you start from the inside out (rather than outside in) Like with emotional memory for example. (Although Stan did talk about doing some outside to in work in his later work - so if you pull the right expression / body language it can create the inner feeling). Hope this helps? I have quite a few videos on Stanislavski….

Why was it called "Alienation Effect" when it bridged the gap between the stage and the stalls? Surely calling an audience to assertive action is a way to bring them together with the play itself rather than alienating them?
This is such a great question - ‘alienation effect’ is one of many translations of verfremdungseffekt. I think ‘strange making’ or ‘making strange’ work a little better. But imo none of the translations perfectly describe the technique. It’s fascinating to think about and so much more than it’s literal translation 👍🏻
Thanks for your comment. At the beginning of the game we usually say ‘concentration, concentration, concentration let’s begin!’ Then we are using our own name, the word ‘to’ then the name of the next person. For example ‘Lisa to Lacey’. I hope that helps?
@user-kr1do3pz8r that’s great to hear - and nice to use each other’s names, this is my favourite way to play. Alternatively you can each have a number (sit / stand in a circle) and call on the number instead 👍🏻

I'm 49, and have just completed my first term at drama school as a very mature student!! We've started covering the basics of Laban - which I'd never even heard of before let alone participated in😮. Thank you for giving such a clear, concise overview on each of the concepts. X
Thank you for your lovely comment and best of luck with the rest of your training. Good for you going to drama school at 49 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 that’s amazing & empowering 🤩 I’m sure you’ll smash the rest of it ✨
It’s often a director’s choice to use a split stage or split scene. My students use it in their devised work quite a bit. I’ve used it in Bouncers and Shakers, Blood Brothers, Grease, Aladdin, Spring Awakening. Hope this helps?
These guys demonstrate it (it’s in their own work rather than a published play) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ume-7YCUA5U.htmlsi=QxBrQl8JjhcxCWX1
Wow, my earlier comment seemed to have disappeared. Trying again. I just wanted to share there are two mispronunciations in this reading. No offence meant to the speaker. Viewers can check for themselves if these corrections are true. The word is "affrighted" which has no "n". It should be read as it sounds, and not spoken with an "n" as in "affrightened" which is modern English. That is a common misreading. "downgyved" is pronounced with a soft "j" as in "jived", not hard "g". This can be confirmed if you listen to MyShakespeare pronunciation or Oxford dictionary entry for this word. Shakespeare drama coaching is a specialised area, to know how to spell, say and read Early Modern English.
No offence taken - we are all trying our best to spark a love of Shakespeare - I always encourage students to do their own research on top of any learning. There have been no complaints with their LAMDA exam pronunciation to date. Thanks for your comment - it’s really useful to have here. Keep up the good work 🤩
I believe they are referring to a scene within the anime where they stop time and so everybody is frozen still. Bit of a confusing comment but I believe that's what they meant@@TheDramaCoach
