 1800's Homeless man (National AT&T commercial)
|
But it is not enough to just be able to act, expecially for homeless characters, one must learn what it is like to be homeless.
On the screen in the past homeless men looked like actors who didn't shave for a day. Thats not real. I have learned to grow my beard and mat my hair in realistic visual looks of a true man of the streets.
Along with this I have spent countless hours living with and learning from men that have not lived in a home for many years. I have taken what I gleened from them and have formed a character that not only looks real but acts real. Whether it be a crazy, goofy portrayal or a deep thinking pilisophical street person, I have mastered the realism of them. |
