      Clint used to work on TV shows where they shot a lot of footage a day and if you "wasted time" with reshoots you'd never get anything done.

    This makes me think about when Claudia Cardinale (an Italian actress) describe the set managed by Luchino Visconti as the polar opposite from the one of Federico Fellini. The former was like sacred place to which only few people had access and everything had to play out meticulously in accordance to planning, from design details to lines. The latter was apparently a mayhem where the director let everybody do his thing (practically no script just as libbing) and the scene somehow emerged organically from that inspired chaos.

    As an actor (theatre) I don't mind getting a line reading IF I ASK FOR IT. When I direct, I hate giving them because I want the actor to figure it out themselves. I only ever do it if they ask, or if we're running out of time in the rehearsal.

    • @jeremyevantaylor1724
      @jeremyevantaylor1724 4 роки тому +3

      I agree 100%. I acted once in a PSA where the director gave line readings as his only way if giving direction. That was frustrating. But I think they have their place as a last resort when you are running out of time and need to move on to the next scene. As a director, line readings are especially helpful when working with non-actors who aren't skilled yet at taking direction and haven't learned to be pretentious about line readings yet. As an actor, asking for a line reading after you've done a bunch of takes already and still aren't giving the director what they want, especially on a corporate gig with dialogue that isn't how real people talk, can be a life saver. A line reading doesn't immediately disable you into a parrot unless you believe it will. You should be able to go in the direction of the inflections they just gave you and still make them your own.

    • @dialecticalmonist3405
      @dialecticalmonist3405 4 роки тому +2

      As a writer, there are times where you know the line has to be said a certain way because you designed the pacing of the scene a certain way and you can't express that with words.

    • @KevinWidesouls
      @KevinWidesouls 4 роки тому +1

      North American UA-camr It goes both ways. In Michael’s story, it sounds like it was the directors fault for giving vague, unhelpful directions. Probably wasn’t a good director. In other situations, it’ll be the actors fault (intentional or not) if they don’t execute the director’s vision. Line readings suck, and actors who have an issue with a great director trying to execute his or her vision suck too.
      It’s also about rapport. Scorsese has rapport with his leads because they’re the same people over and over again, so it makes sense that a smaller role (like Michael) would fall into place a lot easier and view it as a productive environment. A legendary director working with legendary actors? Of course that’s a great environment.

      I agree.
      When you write a screenplay, there are times a line HAS to be read a certain way, or else it misses the entire idea.
      There are so many things dependent on so many other things. So many personalities and egos, and no "official right way" to do things in art, unlike with engineering.
      Everybody might think their way is the best. That's why directing can be so difficult.

    I'm a Voice Actor and from time to time I do voices for video games. Usually, the VO Director has a very particular concept for the lines. If I'm not hitting the lines just right they'll read it to me the way they had in mind. I think it's great when that happens because it makes my job easier and we get to move on to the next scene/character that much faster. It's the same for Radio Spots and even some Kickstarter videos I've narrated. If the client wants things done in a certain way so be it! My job is to provide the read in that way.
    One day I had to be an amped up Sportscaster, an Evil King and a Young Warrior back to back to back...who the hell wants to spend all day hoping to get things right when you can just have the Director read the line how they want it and then match that performance?! The other 99.9% of the lines are being read how I see fit...who cares that the Director actually did their damn job and got the performance out of me that was required for the gig?? What a weird thing to complain about...

      If a writer or director has a very specific vision for a scene, it should probably be followed, assuming you trust them.
      The writer should EXPLAIN the way he envisions the scene to play out and WHY he thinks it needs to be done that way.
      On the flip side, a scene can be improved if the actors get into it and really feel the moment. They can make it better than what the writer or director had planned.
      It's a give and take and there are no right answers.

      Dude it's fine to mimic the director for generic video game roles where most likely your voice is stylized, hyped up and cartoony anyways, as your lines are likely gonna be 3 second sound bytes some NPC shouts. But if you are doing a serious film, trying to copy your directors voice would be bad because he's not an actor, he can't act as well as you can, it would just feel totally unnatural and stilted.

      Modern Hollywood is not about making films it is about activism and giving voice to the producers ideologies.
      Nothing more than that. Most people can sense that something was wrong with Star Wars but could not put their finger on it but if you look at it and aware of the ideologies present in Hollywood you can see why the films are turning out so bad.
      They are going to destroy the next generation of Marvel films in the name of ideology.

      Scorsese is all about the atmosphere. He doesn't tinker around with the pacing and lets the actors make it look more authentic.
      Tarantino is all about pacing and timing. Everything depends on WHEN things are delivered. It looks less authentic and has a comic book quality, but that's what most of his movies are trying to be anyway.

    • @denisemilfort4581

      A line reading is when the director tells you exactly how to say it. For example I can say go to bed like in a sweet way or any or go f yourself, telling the actor exactly how to say the line when it's supposed to be up to their interpretation and the director's job to direct them if they're not delivering.

      The best directors weren’t really that great actors, if they acted at all. At least I don’t think so. Clint Eastwood was a good actor and is a pretty good director, but isn’t one of the best.
      There are also legendary great directors that notoriously suck at acting; Quentin Tarantino comes to mind.
