Acting with Consistency - http://www.maggieflaniganstudio.com/meisner-technique/acting-consistency/ Why Actors Struggle with Consistency - Maggie Flanigan Studio - Call 9177891599 Charlie Sandlan teaches in the acting programs at the Maggie Flanigan Studio. In this video, Charlie discusses why many actors have trouble being consistent in their acting. Maybe you can relate to this as an actor. You do a scene may be in a play or class, or perhaps you're on set, and something magical happens. You're out of your head. You're on your spontaneous impulses. You're fully emotionally alive. Something happened, and the director calls cut. You walk off stage, and you feel like you've been hit by a Mack truck. Then you say yourself, "How can I do that again?" and you don't know how. It's lost in the ether. That could be very frustrating, because you've got a sense of what it feels like to be present, but you don't know how to do it. The reason why you don't know how to do that consistently is because you don't have craft or a real technique that gives you a way of working, that's going to support you every single time you grab material, whether going in for an audition, you're going into rehearsal, going on set. You need to learn how to craft. It is essential. I think that the Meisner technique that was created by Sandy Meisner in 1930s is the most brilliant way to instill actors with fundamental skill. You've got to be able to get the attention off of yourself onto the other person or onto what you're doing. You've got to know how to listen, how to hear intently, how to go from anticipated moment to unanticipated moment. You need to be able to be surprised in every moment about what's being said to you, about what's happening to you at the moment, being played upon and changed by a notion of being. You need to know how to answer some particular questions. You need to know how to respond and pin down very individually and personally with the previous circumstances what the acting relationship is, what's your objective. You need to know how to do actions. Those all ultimately need to be second nature. Then you need an instrument that is open and pliable, that's capable of processing emotion that will allow your empathy, your humanity, your vulnerability to be able to operate. When you have that instilled in you, when you have a craft, when you have something that is just second nature to how you work as an artist, then those fleeting moments of being alive on stage or camera become consistent.
