BuzzFeed Videoshoot Acting Tips for You!
- Before the Shoot: Research your character and practice their lines as much as possible. Spend time with the script to understand your personality’s motivations, wants, and needs. Make sure you are fully aware of the context in which your scenes take place so that you can better inform your acting choices.
- During the Shoot: Listen carefully to directions from the director, cinematographer, and other crew members for guidance on how best to deliver a scene.

It can help inform future performances and give insight into areas for improvement.
