On this episode of the podcast, we spoke with Ryan Lemmon.

Ryan is earning his BA in Acting from Florida State, although he’s been interested in acting since high school.

Our discussion explored how acting has helped Ryan become more in touch with his own personal views and identity. Even though he takes on new characters regularly, Ryan believes we all have an essence that makes us who we are. However, our essence can adapt to new situations and change for the better.

Ryan enjoys exploring a character’s insecurities. He likes getting into the nitty gritty of a character’s life, and especially enjoys it when a show openly explores those heavy themes. At the end of the day, Ryan feels that the most important goal in acting is making someone feel something.

If he’s done that, he’s done his job.
