All I know is that the camera doesn’t like acting. The camera likes behavior. It’s okay to act on stage, otherwise no one can hear you or see you, but the camera doesn’t like acting very much. It will see it, so you have to be well motivated. What comes out comes out in front of the camera because you are motivated. You have to understand the series of gestures, mannerisms, voices – the wishes and dreams that make your character. You have to be very conscious.
