How are actors wearing sunglasses filmed without showing the camera in the reflection?

Posted on December 25, 2011 by admin

I’ve been watching Burn Notice a lot recently and every episode features many close up shots of actors with sunglasses. But every time I look at the reflection, I never see any film gear. Obviously, if the glasses are shot at an angle, nothing will show, but many of the close up shots involve the actors turning their faces from one side to the other. Do they edit the reflections out?

They use a polarizing filter on the camera’s lens.

How do actors possess such an amazing control over their body language?

Posted on December 2, 2011 by admin

I always wonder how the actors and actresses can exert such an amazing control over the body language. Can any one give me a elaborated response.

Acting is not acting at all, it’s reacting. Amazing body language comes from reacting honestly. Actors that simply act are always wooden and never believable. They consciously think about what they need to do with their body. If you just saw a snake, you would not be thinking about how to hold your body or where to put your hands.

Do you think actors should limit how many bio pics they do?

Posted on November 14, 2011 by admin

even when the stories aren’t really similar?

I was sitting on the computer daydreaming about what historical people I’d play if I was an actor and if I got the opportunity, and then I started thinking, are too many bio pics bad for actors? Like you play a boxer and then a criminal and then a pimp and then a political figure and then a comedian or something like that… you know? Anyways what do you think? Should actors try to limit how many real people the portray?

BQ: If you could, what historical person would you play? Based on how interesting you think they are, how they/you look and other stuff like that? Give more than one if you want.

BQ2: Has anyone seen Moneyball, Drive or 50/50? Give me your opinions on them if you have. I really enjoyed Drive..

No offense, but that’s a stupid statment. If you pull off all of those roles, your a extremely versatile and probably a phenomonal actor.

BQ: The rapper Cage. I don’t look like him but his life is extremely interesting, albeit horrible.

BQ2: I reviewed Drive on here already so I’ll just say it’s my second favorite film of the year. I’ve yet to see the other two but hopefully that’ll change soon.
