It's very common for actors to feel like their natural reactions aren't enough, so they improve the moment by making it bigger. The goal is to listen, let it land, and let it happen organically. Acting is mind to mind, and you want to use your scene partner to induce you to speak. Another great acting tip in this video includes flushing out every line and knowing why you're saying what you're saying. Character and Scene analysis is a huge part of this class and very important during preparation.

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁: The Heller Approach is a unique Non-Method acting technique suitable for all levels, from the beginner looking for an effective approach to start an acting career, to the seasoned professional actor, who finds acting no longer enjoyable, complex, mentally draining, and confusing. The Heller Approach Acting Studio, located in Los Angeles, CA, which was founded by an actor, director, and acting teacher, Brad Heller, is currently rated as one of the top acting schools in Los Angeles. We teach students at our theater in Hollywood and also on Zoom to students all over the globe. The Heller Approach provides you a simple structure and a fun way to learn acting, completely effective, without needing to indulge in "The Method" type personal experiences that can be extremely exhausting and traumatic. Furthermore, this acting technique will help you learn how to analyze a scene, cold read, audition, evoke emotion, act in various movie genres like drama and comedy, and create the most believable, entertaining characters in a way that is conducive to the fast-paced entertainment industry.

The Heller Approach is an acting technique taught exclusively by Brad Heller, who coached actors for 5 years at UCLA before opening his own studio in 1995. Heller's teachings are based on the works of his former teacher and mentor, Don Richardson, an original member of the legendary Group Theatre, which was the nucleus of acting in the United States. Richardson's fellow students were Sanford Meisner, Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, and Uta Hagen. Don was one of the Group Theatre students who said, "The Method is NOT what acting is about." Don's acting technique became a rescue for Brad Heller because despite having a degree in theater from one of the world's finest theater programs, Boston University School of Theater Arts, and trying multiple acting techniques, Brad could not enjoy the process of acting. Combining Don Richardson's acting technique with the knowledge of anxiety from Dr. Eda Gorbis and lessons from his mentor Academy Award winner Seth Winston, and more, the Heller Approach has become trusted by thousands of students globally.
