Personal Achievement

What do you personally want to get out of the whole A2 prelim experience?

Personally, I would like to gain a much greater understanding of the logistical side of a professional shoot. This includes the approach to setting up and keeping to a schedule and the coordination of your actors and props. I am also particularly fascinated about the technical aspect of a professional shoot. This refers to the operation of the cameras and lighting.


Is it a challenge for you or within your comfort zone?

The majority of this experience has been within my comfort zone thus far. However, the idea of lip synching has always been something that has never appealed to me. Due to previous acting experience I am comfortable with acting in front of audiences, but I have learnt that acting in front of a camera is a completely different ball game. 


Have to achieved/learnt anything so far?

I would confidently say that I have learnt how to lip synch properly. I have also learnt the importance of physically exaggerated articulation when acting in front of a camera, especially when lip synching. In addition, I have learnt that acting in front of a camera requires much more attention to subtle details as the audience with have more time to analyse the physical and therefore emotional aspect of performances.
