Episode Transcript

(00:11):
Hey guys, this is Amy. Lyndon I started this podcast
for you because I am here to help Empower you because you are
enough. I am here to help you get to the
next level in your career. And most of the times, it has
everything to do with what you think about yourself.
I am a booking coach celebrity booking coach 54, plus Network,

(00:35):
series regulars, and Emmy winnerand image in Winter.
And thousands of people working around the globe, all because of
this technique that I created, Ireally want to help you.
So I do believe that if you keeplistening, you might pick up
some gem that I am dropping downand it will change the course of

(00:56):
your entire career. If you get to a place where you
stay in the place of where your characters coming from in your
world that you're creating, nothing's going to bother you.
So every time you fall out from your script, you didn't plug up

(01:17):
the holes. So, if you don't understand
something in a script, don't toss it off to just one line.
So, big deal, I sort of understand it.
That one line could be the pointto the whole script.
And it usually is the one line. You keep tripping on the one

(01:38):
line. You can't remember.
Is usually the keyline. I don't know why that is.
It just is, It's usually the point to the whole scene.
So you can structurally understand it, then you can play
it. But if you can't understand it,

(02:00):
your journey is going to be longer.
Most of your time needs to be spent understanding it, and then
relating to it. Those two things understanding
it and then relating to it, but you guys, you're running it,
you're running it, you're running it.
The more you run it, the less it's inside of you, the great.

(02:24):
Great actors. The ones that you want to be, I
know you want to be Have a greatmarination process.
But you go. Oh my God.
They're fully the character. I believe every actor can play
every character. If you allow yourself to do it,

(02:46):
I really do believe that I'm a weather and industries going to
buy you as it. That's a completely different
thing but I do believe you couldplay every character.
The great actors do. And the way they do that is that
they understand it. And they relate it back to them.

(03:10):
But the character has to come first.
And the more that you can put the character first and what's
the journey that this person is going on?
And you could say to yourself, Icould understand that journey.
I can understand that Journey, then if it's connected, there it
is. Then you're the person It really

(03:33):
is that simple. Everybody else makes it really
complicated. so the marination process just really sitting and
sectioning out restraint, Beginning middle and section it
out. Sit with the beginning by itself

(03:53):
until it really bleeds into you.If you keep running it and
running it and running it and running it, you're going to
flatten out everything that you that you worked on.
You want to have great transitions?
Strong feelings. Connected feelings.
That's what you want. So you work the beginning by

(04:14):
itself, you marinated on it, andyou see all the changes, all the
transition is changing, thought,change in Emotion, shift in
energy, at all. It is and mark them.
Your script should be so marked up your sort of Denzel
Washington script. He has like, no white on the

(04:35):
scriptural writing, and writing,and writing, and writing, and
writing, don't write to do homework, right?
When things hit you. You don't want to forget the
button, it's pushing because sometimes it comes in and goes
out really quickly. The worst thing that could
happen to you is, if you get a real big emotional reaction to
an emotional script when you first read it, because then you

(04:58):
think, oh, this is going to be easy.
That's a superficial reaction. It's usually the the human
reacted like being a writer writing something and thinking
that you're going to be able to act it, it's not in there.
It's not in there so it's real logical guys.

(05:21):
If you feel like you're falling out of a scene, it's because you
were never really in there to begin with.
So how could you fall out of a scene that you are never really
fully invested in? That's why you fell out.
They train you to be juicy. Juicy, juicy, juicy juicy
actors. And that comes from you knowing

(05:44):
yourself. Knowing where your vehicle is
and where it lives inside of you.
Where is grief? An actor is a walking talking,
emotional vehicle for the writer.
You are a conduit. You are a channel.

(06:06):
You find out what the writer needs.
And then you funnel it through you.
And since there's only one, you stop worrying about standing
out. There's only one you you already
stood out, just when you were born, they stood up.
So don't worry about it. Worry about swinging through

(06:30):
worry about showing up. Worry about being so strong.
So powerful, people only want tobe in business with powerful
people. If you play the weakest
character, I want you too strongto be the strongest, most
powerful weakest character. And if you pay a playing a power

(06:51):
character, don't move our people, don't move.
I'm obsessed with Apple TV. I just can't believe.
I haven't any watch it from the beginning when they first came
out. You know if they call themselves
a network or streaming service but their tastes and product is

(07:11):
so far superior. I've been watching Joel Kinnaman
and his first season of all mankind.
Beauty of people, not movie, youknow, all of their pain.
You can feel it in her face and the way they speak, you don't
need to move to explain that. If you want to do television

(07:34):
acting. And I'm not talking about quirky
characters, or playing a drug dealer, or somebody that's like
a heroin addict. I'm talking about just regular
TV, just watch them, they don't move.
And you know what? They don't move because they
don't have to what they're really saying and what they're
really feeling they know. So why don't they need to move

(07:58):
to prove it? They just now.
