Jeff explains why substitution, like many old school methods, ends up disempowering the actor.

Jeff addresses the tricky business of delivering the written script as though it was what you were going to say anyway. It's a simple change in perspective and easier than you think.

Jeff continues to chip away at traditional training nonsense and presents a solid case for the freedom and power you achieve in using The Real Life Actor approach. Word, indeed.

The actor's quest to conjure the appropriate feelings when needed is far easier than you think. Ultimately, it's lightening fast and super easy. Just like in real life.

Jeff dispels the myth of that final moment when we, "get into character." It's just another bullshit belief that suckers actors into getting far too deep into their heads.

Once again, Jeff uses a recent training session with one of his students to offer a great example of the best way to approach and own your scene.

Here is a great example taken from a recent Skype lesson with a student. The things actors worry about and shouldn't and the things actors don't think about and should.

Those classes that challenge the actor's commitment by seeing who will make out the hardest and tell their deepest darkest secrets. It's a bullshit lure to keep you in the class. How is this getting you to improve as an actor?

Jeff offers up some great insight as to what we're really after when we share tragic stories. He also answers questions from Carla in Paris and Kieren in the UK.

That dreaded feeling of inhibition when you're acting. Jeff goes over what an actor is actually experiencing and what to do about it.
