- Comment on What are the best examples of a director going "all out" to get the best out of their actors? 2 weeks ago:
These types of tricks are gimmicks and often don’t necessarily create “great” scenes, and instead reduce morale, create resentment and may have a detriment on the whole production. Not to mention the victim of these is often women and often in sexually violent scenarios.
Actors, especially trained ones, already have a process - whether its Meisner, Method, Laban, M. Chekov, etc to deal with stakes, emotion, vulnerability etc and it would behoove directors to at least partially understand that more than trying to invent their own on the hoof.
We don’t hit a Foley artist with a metal bar to make them understand how to make the sound better, we don’t stab the fight choreographer to make them understand knives better, we don’t shoot the LX tech into the sun to understand the difference between INT and EXT, why do it to actors?

there are a lot of studies in humor. There’s things like commedia dell’Arte, or Ecole Gaulier, The Seven Causes of Laughter, there’s hundreds of books on improv, joke writing, sitcom writing, stand up.
I’ve made a few comments around Lemmy diving into some of the theory behind it, but people get kinda tetchy when you get technical about it.

that is precisely what SERP and sales prospecting marketing is. Except paid SERP placement and plaintext email displayed in a browser or email client rather than a text editor.
- Comment on I learned so much 2 weeks ago:
yeah but we all, unfortunately, need jobs, and jobs are at companies, and companies make money from sales, sales happen on a market, and you need marketing so people know it exists.
- Comment on I learned so much 2 weeks ago:
you laugh until your STEM-only software engineer tries to write marketing copy, he circumnavigated the marketing department and sent the ads at a conference straight to the contact without getting it approved.

I was tempted to deep dive and find exactly the timeline but then I realized I should actually not do that as that would be a pointless exercise.
- Comment on Bugs me when audiobook series do this 3 weeks ago:
yeah I’m saying it’s likely he had another gig or the pay wasn’t right, they cheaped out then realized their mistake.
- Comment on Bugs me when audiobook series do this 3 weeks ago:
Actors have lives too. It’s likely they booked a better gig or were unavailable for other commitments, or the company didn’t want to put up a fair pay to bring them back.
