i know this is probably a very common question, but...?

Question

i never used to have trouble with this, but now....whatever. im all of a sudden having trouble getting into it, like during rehearsals for the play im in, im always very concious when im acting that there are people that are watching me, and i think about them and look at them a lot. i never had this problem so i dont know how to fix it?!?! how do i fix it?

Answer 1

I think this happens from time to time with a lot of actors. I, for one, have had this problem from time to time because of my inherant shyness and lack of self-confidence occasionally.

What has helped me in the past is to completely immerese myself in character study. I do an exhaustive fleshing out of my character's background, motivations, subtxt for lines, pauses, action verbs relating to what I am trying to do to the other character in a scene etc.

These things make the character work through me instead of making me feel as if I am "playing" at acting. When I am onstage, it is like I am not there anymore. So, I don't worry about anyone else--they don't exist past the fourth wall.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

It nearly only a average frame response. I could'nt freak over it. I as soon as hada early morn flight and nonetheless had mornin rainy picket. The tsa agent man kinda brushed my picket while he felt round in my briefs. He gave the impression extra embarassed than me. I recall his face received all pink and his fingers have been kinda tremblin. He kinda appologized however I simply blew it off and boarded my flight.

Answer 3

start acting. it is an adolescent syndrome. you are maturing and you are aware of it and you assume everyone else is also. they may be but they are not that interested in you. they would be more interested in your character if you stopped worring about yourself and started being the character.

Answer 4

Immerse yourself in your character.
