I can't tell from that angle, but having directed quite a few actors over years, there's a big difference in actors who've went to the workshops and internalized the process. It just shows, for the better and you can spot them rather quickly. Namely, you can tell they (for the better part) react 'naturally' making the character far more believable. Take what you will from this, but that has been my experience.
- eszed 2y agoThat makes sense. Someone else down-thread says Meisner isn't something they'd use after the beginner stage. I think, by that point in my career, I'd internalized enough of those lessons in other ways that it was kinda pointless for me. If I were still teaching I might give it a go with a beginner class - though I doubt I could teach it with conviction, so I'd probably call in someone else for a day. Like I say, I've noticed the same thing you have, so there's clearly something there. I've just never "got it", so it kinda fascinates me.
