Hi cheeky monkeys!
Did you have any favourite theatre games? What acting techniques did you study in the acting schools?
I'm quite obsessed with movement, mainly locomotion and gestures. Have you done any study on animal movements in drama classes?
Seen some gameodens being shared around and smeg it, George I LOVE your facial expressions! (Jayden I still love your Twitch streams, lemme love George with this 🤫)
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast with more requests!
"J: Tan! Once again, wow! This is becoming, just, yeah, I-I can’t even, I can’t even put it into words, but, anyway let’s go!
J: “Hi cheeky monkeys. Did you have any theatre games? What acting techniques did you study in the acting schools?”
G: Um, I, the earliest kind of theatre game I remember is “splat!” Which is a great one and “Zip, Zap, Boing!” That’s always a big energy booster. Um, and in terms of acting techniques? Uh, one that I think is, uh, particularly great for screen acting is the “Meisner Technique.”
G: Um, you also said, you’re “quite obsessed with movement. Mainly locomotion and gestures. Have you done any study of animal movements in drama classes or anything alternative?”
J: Oh! When I did a short film in 2013 {"Mohammed"], I was feeling really nervous, uh, because it was my first time on camera, and our director, Mustapha Kseibati, made me walk around the room like an eagle. And at the time, I didn’t know why he was doing it, but I realised it was just to bring me out of my shell, and d’you know what? There was something quite primal about it, and I think it brought out like a fire within me and it was great. Um, “I’ve seen some Gameodens being shared around in and smeg it, George—“
G: Amazing, thank you so much, Tan, for all of these things. We’re so grateful. Um, and, uh, every—like we said—every time it’s like you’re a Dead Boy Detective super fan. So props to you. Take care, Tan!"
