Alfred Hitchcock once said “Cinema is life with all boring things cut“.
In an age when more people watch TV and movies than read books, actors and storytellers have a fantastic opportunity to socially and emotionally educate their audiences through the stories they tell.
They can, through the characters they portray, hold a mirror to life ; and doesn’t it make sense that their stories will be far more effective and entertaining if the audience accepts them as the characters they portray?
Aren’t they better storytellers if they can blur the line between playing the part and spontaneously living it?
Savi White is an actor always looking forward to meeting new people to collaborate with on interesting projects, and to paraphrase Robert Altman : “Film making is a chance to live many lifetimes“.
Isn’t that what they as actors try so hard to do ?
