How do they the directors make children cry in movies just asking?

Answer 1

My friend was telling me she saw an interview with a bollywood director who had to get a 3 year old girl to cry. He started yelling at her, saying not so nice things then turned the camera on..... Not the most pleasant way but it worked. Hopefully he bought her candy or something afterwards.

Answer 2

Most of the time there is a lot of waiting around for this to happen. Either the parents know how to make the child do this. Or if they are a little older the child actors are normally a bit more mature so they understand what they have to do for to pleasethe directors and so that the children can get paid.

Answer 3

I don't know, but my child just has a natural knack for the fake dramatic cry. She has always been able to make herself cry. She is only five, by the way. If I didn't think she would end up like all of these other messed up child actors/actresses when she grew up, I swear I would take her to an audition or something. It is the D@mndest thing that I have ever seen! Sometimes she is just pretending/playing, and I freak out and think that she is hurt or something. She laughs at me and says,"Silly mommy, i was just playing!" Maybe a lot of other kids just have the same "gift" that mine does! LOL!

Answer 4

I've heard with infants and toddlers they use to pinch their leg. I'm not sure if every company does the same thing. Older kids, 7,8,9 will hire only kids that can cry on cue. It's part of their interview for the part. Fake tears can be added.

Answer 5

Kids are good at acting, they're naturals at it.

Dakota Fanning: "When someone asked her how she was able to cry on cue for the camera, she replied that she thought about her goldfish who had died."

Answer 6

I heard that they give them a toy and then take it away from them. Or candy, something like that. They don't hurt them though if that's what you are worried about. Once they get old enough, they can make themselves cry.

Answer 7

I was thinking that when I was watching Y&R and the baby was crying, I thought are they pinching that baby? or how are they making her cry on cue?

Answer 8

Oh, I basically theory "eternal Sunshine of the Spotless options" replaced into basically magnificent. I also loved "Inception," "wrestle club," and "the autumn." BQ: "eternal Sunshine" - Clementine. "Inception" - Arthur. "wrestle club" - Brad Pitt's Tyler. everyone who clothing like that and urinates in soup is very impressive (contained in the context of the action picture in ordinary words, for sure!). "the autumn" - The pink Bandit. BQ2: As for videos, try "Lone superstar" and "The Spanish Prisoner." you may want to not be sorry! even as it comprises television, I continually propose "activities evening," "Six ft below," "Treme," and the unique uk version of "Shameless." For books, inspect "A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy To ole.
