Reminiscing about the days of university where I would eagerly read books, listen to CD's and watch such monotonous acting technique instructional videos with eagerness, naive seriousness and complete concentration.
I do hope the JOKES are clear!
Do come and say hi on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/beaujensen

I love you for watching,

Much love and smile always,

Script:
Acting master class
As an actor, one must remember not to always rely on ones face to portray the demanded emotions that are called upon in the profession. Your body is an immaculate and powerful instrument that can emulate and radiate said emotions with intensity and conviction. So, first, to harness the ability and train the tool that will allow us to convey the required emotions, let us first don our neutral mask.
Smashing, now, Try out these...
Astonishment
Neglect
Delight
Regret
Envy
Worry
Rage
Yearning
Adoration
Nervousness
You can even use this method with various styles. Take the emotion 'joy' for instance. Depict this using the following techniques...
Stanislavski
Brecht
Dada
Tarintino
Simpsonite

Once you've mastered the basic bodily functions, you can then go on to reacting, rather than acting, with more layered and complex emotions with your, now, very expressive body...
How would you respond to these phrases...
Government cuts £81 million from budget (Scrap Trident)
Thatcher admitted to hospital... but it's only for flu
Wayne Rooney on 1/4million a week
How do you feel about getting Wagner in the office x-factor sweepstake?
Wonderful.
Now, how about trying to get into a completely different personas altogether
For instance
A womans
A seahorses
A Chilean Miners
A black mans...
Not like that, well that's quite enough for today. Do tune in to the next edition. Where we touch on the ethics of type casting for characters with disabilities in the theatre, in 'To see, or not to see'. Good day.
