Best one and most real and believable of all.... is the older man - grey hair - Hawaiian shirt:) He was the very best... Everyone else was overacting and pushing it. But not him - he was cool, calm and collected and super funny:) I could see him on Film and would totally cast him ... He's the Winner in my book:)
I do a lot of monologues in my self tapes. I also audition commercials a lot. In the community some people might down it but it's good to get strong monologues.
Hey Jasmine! Thanks for the interest... it is an original piece that I wrote/collaborated on with the studio owner, Clay Banks. Hope you liked it and thanks again! -- Joe
Hello, Avelon! And, thanks for checking out our channel! We're super stoked that you're enjoying the performances. The Vampire Monologue was a custom piece written specifically for that actor and that contest. It's since been performed by many other actors and is also available to you if you'd like to take it on. It can be easily modified to fit whichever actor's individual characteristics. For example, it wasn't originally written with a Latino. This actor added some tidbits to fit his personality. Hope this helps!
Think of it more as honing the craft - strengthening the instrument - brightening the bulb. Anyone can call themselves an actor... however, putting what's inside on the line to see what it really is, is all a part of development.
@@claybanksstudiointernation3046 I kind of feel like you said a lot and not very much at the same time here. But yeah... I think we might have a slightly different approach to acting in Sweden. "Different" doesn't necessarily need to mean "better", but as you can probably tell, I personally can become a little sceptical when I perceive something to be overly competetive. I don't know if I would necessarily call competing a way of strengthening the craft. To me, it can also be a way of ruining it sometimes.
I’m glad u talk about the daily grind and how LONG and ARDUOUS the process is. It’s insane bc it’s ONE MINUTE! Insane! I never would have guessed that comedy is where u feel weak. That’s me. Give me Drama & Tragedy 🎭 and I can live there, but u really want to scare and sadden me, give me a comedic monologue assignment.
this video is exactly what i was looking for. i signed up for the auditions my school just posted up and have been shitting my pants since lol. i just started school two weeks ago and have no acting experience whatsoever but figured why not at least try. til now all i found was people doing self tapes or monologues with people reading back to them. this all came last minute, my audition is in 36 hours and i just got signed up so i'm scrambling to figure out how to do this. this video was super helpful and honestly really boosted my confidence going into this because i have a single person dialogue thing like this ready to go that i've practiced and feel pretty good about but there's like no directions about what to do listed and trying to email teachers last minute to ask for help preparing isn't solid going into the weekend with them not around, so i'm assuming based on what it says this is the format it will be done in. thanks for posting this up, these were great examples and many of them i really enjoyed, especially the old guy "i don't have herpes, but it's ok if you do" LMAO
glad to see you're trying acting, Ik its nerve racking at first. trust me it takes a while to shake them but its something everyone deals with. how'd your audition go? wishing the best
Same position but in uni and they told me to prepare something and I don’t know where to go. Also we are bilingual so I am searching in two languages 🥲
