“My metaphor for acting in movies - not on stage because it's completely different on stage - is to put colors on an easel for the director to paint his own painting with in the editing room, long after I've left. You buy me for red and black, so I better give you really great red and black, but if I can give you purple, pink, green and brown too, I will.” IfsGivingLongI CanDifferentLeftBlackRoomsActingStageColorPaintingDirectorsRedGreenPaintMetaphorBrownEditingReally GreatPurpleActing In MoviesRed And Black Author:Scott Glenn

“For so many years, I've been an actor acting in other people's movies, and in 'Unstoppable,' I'm producing it, and I have an opportunity to create some of that excitement with style and form and different color templates and things like that.

“Performance capture is a genre of acting which is not going to go away, it's going to proliferate more and more. I'm passionate about it, and I love it.

“Music is like color or acting or whatever. It's really something I think about from the beginning. Not that I always know exactly what I'm going to use, but I don't see it as something like, "Let's find some songs now!" after we have a finished film.” ThinkingKnowsUseFilmSongActingColorMusic IsFinished Author:Noah Baumbach
“I often say of my background: "That and a Metrocard will get me downtown." Honestly, I think the upshot of my training in acting and writing is that I've been trained to be adventurous. There are so many moments in conservatory where I was encouraged to push the envelope and color outside the lines. I think that sense of bravery flavors what I do. It allows me to take chances that I might not otherwise take.” ThinkingWritingMomentsMightLinesChanceActingColorTrainingBraveryHonestlyBackgroundsFlavorTake A ChanceAdventurousEnvelopesDowntownConservatory Author:Steven C.

“Sure, being good at your job is really important, but in acting, so much of the decision's already made the minute you walk in the room because they're like, 'His hair's good or she's got the right skin color' or whatever. It's so random, but it's so physically oriented.” MadeImportantJobsDecisionWalksRoomsActingMinutesColorHairSkinsBe GoodSkin Color Author:Rashida Jones
“The type of acting that I'm interested in, that I aspire to, is where I try and drag a lot of myself into whatever character it is. They can be very different types of characters, but at the heart of it, I always wanted to be a very, very believable and rooted in reality. One of the ways of doing that is to root it as much as you can in your own experiences and then tint those with different hues, different colors to give the different characters their way.” WayGivingTryingHeartDifferentCharacterRealityWantedActingColorTypeRootsRootedDragAspireHueBelievableDifferent CharactersDifferent Colors Author:Tobias Menzies
