Still Monologue - Dark teen

At various times throughout Still, a worship event held April 25, 2008, we showed monologues depicting youth in different "life stages." Unpopular, popular, busy Christian, non-Christian not wanting to change, and a somewhat dark teen.

This is the dark monologue (one of two that were videotaped prior to the event).

you're almost there... but you don't sound natural enough. you sound like you're acting, which isn't what you should want. that's the ONLY thing i think you should need to work on :)

You sound like you're acting. You don't sound natural. I think you have potential, but you need work.

Hey guys, I'm just toying around with acting to see if I even like it or have some potential to eventually take classes. If you have time, it would be lovely if you could check out my channel and give me some reviews so I can work on my skills before I decide to take any classes. Thank you!

I agree with what most are saying about this video, you sound too much like you're acting, put yourself in the situation, maybe that will help. (Although, obviously, this isn't an experienced answer...)

Ur performance was alright, but there r a few things I would work one:

1. Inflection: you kind of have the same voice the whole time(plus this is dark teen, speak sadder)

2. Facial/body expressions: you had the same face on the whole time. Also move around, and use some gesture here and there

Thats pretty much it, keep workn at it. B)

god u beatiful, can i call you.

[pupluv322]

it okay but you kind of have the same facial expression the whole time and your voice doesnt have highs or lows so every line sounds almost exactly the same. Also, you had the same position the whole time which didn't make the piece as strong as it should have been so maybe you could use more movement to make it more natural :) if you work on it i bet this monologue and your acting could be much stronger, so just keep at it ;)

PLZ check my vid!

sounds forced. facial movement seems alright but the expression isnt in the eyes.
