they both break eye contact, it's the expression she holds that marks the difference. The one on the left looks away because she's annoyed, it's like she's rolling her eyes. The one on the right is getting nervous, she looks away to deflect, like "what are you talking about?".
Look at how in the one where she's pretending not to care she side glance to someone like she's checking for approval from the group and the micro expressions of anger that leak through, where the other one she doesn't even meet his eyes, she even rolls her's, her shoulders are light and head up high, she really doesn't care. It's sooo good, she's amazing, love it!!!🤩
The easiest identifier between the two is the one who doesn’t care keeps their head held high. They aren’t belittled by you, they see themselves as better because they know the way you see them won’t change them. Someone who does care hangs their head a little lower, because they’re truly taking in every word you say, allowing it to affect them. Maybe an eye roll to make it less obvious, but it’s still there.
The one on the left has her head tilted up and her eyes moving down to look at the person that’s yelling at her, saying that she feels more superior and really just doesn’t care. Plus her expression seems almost lazed meaning she’s probably not even listening very well. However, the one on the right has their head stilled, straight (sometimes looking down), and only ever moves now and then as she looks around uncomfortably and her expression aloof. You can see the harsher the words get, the more she begins to look frustrated with her furrowed brows and her lips curving down into some kind of frown. You can tell she’s focusing a lot on the conversation with how much she’s absolutely staring down at the person yelling at her. I don’t know why I typed this but yeah that’s my takeaway :)
Body language and facial expressions largely don't apply, since they vary between individuals and tend to not apply to neurodivergent people the same way
I really really love the subtle expressions you make while acting! You don't over exaggerate but you don't underperform ❤️ I'm interested in acting / directing and I really enjoy watching your videos (I even binge watched all your shorts 😅) hope you'll have more views and traction soon cause you deserve it!! 🥰
the 1st one looks like they are barely paying attention showing that they dont care but the second one rlly takes the words in and listens u can tell by her face shes hurt your acting is amazingggg
As someone with a condition that makes reading social cues/subtleties difficult for me, I really wish this trend existed when I was growing up. You're helping a very niche subset of the ND community and you don't even know it. For that, I thank you.
I'd say be careful not to take this as gospel, body language can vary a lot from person to person. Someone with the first presentation could just be better at keeping a straight face, while someone with the second could be selling their acting even more.
You act at a professional cinematic level. The minimal mimics and the conveying feelings by just the small expression changes are amazing and on so point 👏
the one on the right swallowed before she spoke, and also never blinked in the fear she was going to cry. swallowing before speaking either means guilt, or that you’re about to cry.
The swallow at the end , the brow furrowing and the smile slightly dropping are really good indicators that the one on the right is letting those words get to her I LOVE HOW MUCH DETAIL YOU PUT INTO THOSE EXPRESSIONS SO SATISFYING ❤️❤️❤️
u should do one with “only cares about her looks”- like she only rlly listened to skinny and pretty so she looks down and smiles from the compliment. she doesnt wait for him to stop talking, its more like thinking or dazed about her achievement of being pretty. then after he talks, she finally says the words at the end.
I somehow relate to the one on the right. When ppl insult me I pretend it doesn't hurt me at all but in reality, I feel like all those bottled up emotions will explode on the spot
The left was exactly how a former toxic friend of mine reacted when I said pretty much exactly what was said in the audio. She was terrible towards our entire group, and I had enough. But she didn’t care. Not one bit. It hurt, but god am I happy to be out of that. You captured that demeanour of not caring one bit for others perfectly.
Yard I love how you thought this through like the 2nd one actually cares because they’re making EFFORT for those facial expressions so they’re actually listening
I love your content! It looks like you have an enlarged thyroid and may want to go to the dr to check it out. My friend was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at 23.
The second one's the one who's likely to be saying "i have anger issues" and misbehaving with the first one, who actually has anger issues but they won't show it cause they just don't care
Please get your thyroid checked. It looks like you might have a mild thyroid goiter. I could be wrong, but I didn't want to just give a like and scroll on without saying something.
These shorts are so smart to make, you want to rewatch it twice so you can see the acting of each side, which makes reels boost up for have over 100% watch time. Also very good acting and examples.
