  1. "If any of the work, that any of us do, contributes to the stretching of culture, the stretching of boundaries of empathy that’s expected of an audience… that’s the holy grail."

    —Riz Ahmed

  2. "Everyone forgets comedians are actors. There's no question about it. A Robin Williams cannot say the same line every night for 40 weeks and make it sound fresh unless he's doing an acting job."

    —Joan Rivers

  3. "It is up to us to give ourselves recognition. If we wait for it to come from others, we feel resentful when it doesn't, and when it does, we may well reject it."

    —Spencer Tracy

    —Ian Mckellen

  5. "I think when you're just counting on your voice, you actually need double the energy. I find myself acting out the scenes and being very physical while I'm recording because I think you can tell when someone is just sitting on a stool."

    —Judy Greer

  7. "For me, our job as artists is to serve the story, serve the director, and serve the fellow actors. And if you do that, by osmosis you’re serving yourself because you’ll get the best out of yourself."

  9. "The camera does not like acting. The camera is only interested in filming behaviour. So you damn well learn your lines until you know them inside out, while standing on your head!"

  11. Working material with an #acting #coaching client, we found an inner, lower, layer going on with the character's feelings and exploring that gave them a new life and liveliness to what the character is saying. Stronger foundation makes a stronger character.

  15. Worked with an #acting #coaching client on techniques to help one react and be (as opposed to get in one's head and have pressure twist things). Borrowed some from Meisner and my own creation, found some depth (and more) organically; real reactions can make things fun.

  26. Got to hear #acting #coaching client's voice almost quaver just as they hit a key piece in the material because they got more specific with it, and the depth there was beautiful to encounter. Specificity almost always beat vague generality. #ActingCoach #ActingCoaching #actors #voice #specificity

  36. Working with an #acting #coaching client on refining and discovering different vocal qualities, and they spoke with a voice neither of us knew they could do. So cool to see them finding new stuff like that, new tools. Great to hear.

  38. Explored with an #acting #coaching client their character's physicality directly. With more specifics, the relationship to the other characters and what happens was clarified. Really cool to experience.

  40. Gave an #acting #coaching client an immediate visual thing to focus on at a moment in an audition scene that was talking about past events. The present tense vitality that lent was really cool to see and hear them discovering. Excited for their #audition.

  42. Had an #acting #coaching client play with a certain line a handful of times, in a row. Then their character started using a new resonance on the line, their vocal technique opened up for the rest of the speech too. Good to hear them discovering new nuance.

  44. Worked with an #acting #coaching client on a pitched #scene, intense feelings, and found how to have the character revealing their vulnerability even if the other character might weaponize it, and then began to explore how these two willful people might connect. Very cool to build.

  45. Worked with an #acting #coaching client on material that isn't very optimistic on the page, but when I ask them to fight for a happy ending with the words, it gained an immediacy, they had a spontaneity I never expected and couldn't take my eyes off of. Counterpoint can be so cool.

  46. The sheer power of #imagination...seeing an #acting #coaching client breathe life into an #audition #role, where I really feel like I'm seeing just part of the character's life, ironically because they're totally present, was really good to witness. I think they'll have a good time #auditioning.
