Los Angeles Acting blog by David August. Wednesday, August 27, 2014. If a Film Falls In the Forest. But no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? Maybe, but it certainly won't entertain anyone, nor get anyone paid, and certainly won't lead to more work for everyone who worked on it like it could have. 5 steps of film:. Most of our acting lives are in the third, maybe bits of rehearsal in the second, or. And that is not good. If you won't do the 5th, don't do any of it. Better to quit. That has be...

Los Angeles Acting blog by David August. Wednesday, April 08, 2015. When Words Don't Work. Sometimes it's easy to get lost in the lines.
