Benson Simmonds Acting Lesson 3 - for auditions and on set - get the x-factor

[basketer429]

Thank you so much for the great work!!!

[politowic]

I was thinking about your substitute technique, and it works awesomely. Instead of saying my line, I would imagine what I would normally say with the proper emotions, and then add the lines with these emotions. Very nice!

[LeaFayeM]

He just improved my acting in 3 videos than anyones every taught me. I wish he was my teacher!!

[wgamador]

YouTube rules and Benson Simmonds kicks massive acting ass.

[rizlas2]

he looks like Edaward Norton's brother :)

[ZooRiot]

What??? No way. More like Kevin Spacey's TWIN.

[rizlas2]

observe his mannerisms, not his looks...and you will find a lot of similarities ;)

[aussiejohnr]

You should put your training videos on DVD! you will make a fortune its Fantastic

[fernandogeorge]

God Bless you for posting these videos man!

[parisprada777]

Bentzion,this is awsome,how about make a few more of these,like on the subjects of that workshop you did a while ago with the chemistry?

[hollywoodshopaholic]

These videos are such an inspiration!

Will you do a lesson on how to find the right physical gestures and mannerisms to express your character's personality?

[hairyhoff]

KHALAL!

it would be really interesting to know what substitutions you used for each obstacle

[tchilipampam]

Will you add some new lessons soon ?

Your advices are a great help for me...

I will have to add you on my actor's cv as a teacher ;-)

[heatingengineer]

When using Moment Before, how do you viscerally recreate that moment before? I know you have to use your senses, but what if you can't remember what that past moment "smelt, felt, like" etc??

[applaudordie]

You just have to search for a time with your substitution that feels stronger. We all have times that we had intense arguments with a loved one or times when we really needed them but they weern't there or the disappointment when they didn't come through for us or..just allow yourself to remember the past event that you still have intense feelings about.

[Guetta09]

you really know your stuff man, nice work!

good luck in LA hope to see you in the big screens some day...your great!

[kthedreamalive]

you rock dude!!!!

[shadowkittygrim]

these vids helped me so much. thank you!!

[camalus666]

Benson, you fucking rock! Miss you in Montreal, your video is almost like having you for a private coaching in my own home! What a fabulous artist, instructor and human being, you are. Love to work with you again!!

Dawn Ford one of your biggest fans!

[yahyavideos]

Watched all three. Great stuff!

[sweetdecember76]

you're right girly girl, he's just as cute in this video. He really scared me in his audition. Good actors can be completely different in different roles and he's so different in his audition at the end of this video. He said it was an audition that got him a part in a movie.

do you know which movie?

[girlygirl28live]

he's just as cute in this video! scary cool audition at the end!

[trickhenry]

great work!!!!!

[trickhenry]
