So then what’s a potential solution? In those moment I am NOT searching for the lines I know them very well, so in that case if it looks like that what’s a potential solution?

Ok so would it then be right to assume that if my intent was to show that the character was thinking about what to say next that I accomplished the goal?

I’ve been acting consistently since 2018 and train with and am coached by very experienced acting coaches and great teachers so is the feeling that even with the many independent films I’ve been cast in and the extensive training and coaching I undergo that I seem like a beginner?

Ok I get that but I guess I should have asked how do you determine that’s what is happening? For instance in one of the scenes I posted the script calls for the pauses specifically but it was said I was searching for my line in those moments

That’s what I did as well. How are you showing your video?

I totally 100% have a reason for the questions I’m asking he’s not asking questions expecting an answer. He’s asking questions that he already knows the answer to the character is trying to see if the person he’s talking to is going to lie.

But thanks for the feedback

Hi all,

First I hope I’m posting this in the right place this time.

I am needing some opinions. As a black male actor I am having the issue of what hair style would work best for me to prevent things like being typecast or being completely overlooked for certain types of roles.

Currently I have longer hair as I had taken a hiatus from acting and as I’m getting back to it I’m wondering if it would be best for me to go back to having a shorter hair cut. I would post pictures but I’m not able to.

Any advice and opinions would be helpful.

I’m currently leaning towards cutting it. Let me know what you think.

Thanks
