He said: “When it comes to reading plays, practising monologues, scripts and so on, choose the one you like”. I found the answer to my question from a British actor that lives and works in New York for many years now. I have been asking myself for a good while: what is a good practice script? So what are some good scripts to practice acting?įind a script that you connect with at an emotional level, that one that you can say “all this is about me”. If you will keep practising daily, the difference between your first and last video one will make all the hard work worth it.

So recording yourself and pulling out the videos from the archive one year later can be quite motivating. Practising your craft at times can be repetitive and dull, linear. You will feel it when you get it right, to quote Brando: “When it’s right is right, you can feel it in your bones”.
Instead, get your phone ready and record your second “cold” read.Īnd then after working with the script for a while, record your second reading session and so on.īut I would like to urge you NOT to use the recordings as a guide to correct your mistakes.ĭon’t forget we don’t practice acting in front of the mirror, and the camera is exactly that. That is the only way we can teach ourselves to spot a good piece of material for our next audition.īy practising daily you will get better at script analysis, delivery, and character analysis.įind a script you connect with from the list below, and print it out so you can make plenty of notes on it, but don’t start analysing it yet. The difference between a character and a bad one, a good dialogue or monologue and so on.Īnd the only way to do that is to read a lot of scripts, take out monologues or dialogues from them and practice. We need to be able to know the difference between a good script and a badly written one. Why should I practice acting with scripts? He also mentioned in an interview that he tries to learn a poem a week, which I want to challenge myself to also do. I would also add that a good idea would be to find a partner to practice with after a while.īefore I go any further I would like to quote Sir Anthony Hopkins who said in one of his interviews: “Learning lines keep my brain going.”

Same for us, find a good play or movie script that you connect with and practice it every day until you feel like you are ready to play it in front of the camera.
Whether you are starting or you are already a working actor, you might not always have the opportunity to be a part of a play or a film, so what do you do then?Įveryday practice is necessary for us actors, like the boxers, are practising the same punch combination every single day. While many factors make a great actor, such as voice, imagination, good observation skills, a natural ability to be a team player etc.īut the regular practice remains one of the greatest, most accessible and often overlooked tools from an actor’s toolbox. Have you ever thought about what makes a great actor great?
