“Then to deliver the message to the audience is our mission. I tried to imagine, if they killed my family, daughters, I would do anything to protect my family.

“For some reason, talking is easy for me. Practice does make perfect; I've been doing it for a while.

“I love my situation as a spectator. The actors are only a little bit ahead of the audience. The audience discovers the episode when it's screened, but we actors only discover the episode when we get the script, two weeks ahead of shooting. Until then, we know nothing of the evolution of our characters.” KnowsLittlesTwoCharacterActorsBitsSituationAudienceWeekEvolutionLittle BitScriptsShootingEpisodesSpectatorsTwo Weeks Author:Richard Sammel
“Our job, as actors, is to just try to be as accurate and as mindful of what the audience is going through and receiving and processing. If it's a situation where the character should look a little bit out of control or do something stupid, it's your job to act into that, in a believable way.” IfsWayShouldTryingLooksLittlesCharacterJobsActorsBitsSituationAudienceStupidLittle BitReceivingAccurateProcessingBelievable Author:Jason Bateman
“In the theater the audience is generally riveted to a single angle of observation. The movie director, though, can rapidly shift from objective to subjective--and to any number of subjective points of view--and in so doing seem to pull the audience directly inside the frame of his picture, giving the spectator the sense of experiencing an action from the viewpoint of a participant. Identification of the viewer with the film character, then, can be much more intimate than the analogous situation in the theater.” GivingCharacterSeemsActionFilmViewsNumbersSituationAudienceDirectorsTheaterPoint Of ViewObjectivesObservationCinemaIntimateAngleViewersSubjectiveSpectatorsParticipantsViewpointsIdentificationMovie Director Author:Ed Murray
“The accidents are things that audiences always remember most, I've found on my own movies. The things that they like the most are the things that were just by accident.

“If you can get an audience to identify themselves with a character, they will subconsciously feel that their own lives are in danger. People tend to pay attention in situations like that.

“I know it's going to sound like a cliché, but the key of successful playing a role is to sort of keep it real and earnest and react the way that one would react in those situations.

“For me, when I see movies where I kind of know who the characters are and what the situation is, I get bored. To me, it's, "How do I tell a story that will keep the audience engaged?"

“Excellent flatterers welcome attentive audiences; mighty potentates enjoy public praise. In the most pleasing situation, a flatterer would genuinely admire the flatteree, please that person, please other present company, be pleased to stagger rivals, and get something out of it: applause, promotion, a favor, reciprocal praise. Flattery is as social as a banquet.” PersonsSocialEnjoyCompanySituationAudiencePleasePraiseFavorsAdmireWelcomeExcellentFlatteryPromotionRivalsApplauseBanquetsReciprocalFlatterer Book:In Praise of Flattery Source: In Praise of Flattery
“There are times I'm completely uncomfortable with my works being performed publicly, and I haven't attended certain concerts because the prospect is akin to having a diary read on stage.

“I love when there's an obstacle to overcome, even for the audience to actually empathize with that character. I find that interesting, and then, how to work around that and make them relatable.
