Watching hundreds of films a year gives a person special insight on the craft of filmmaking and acting. Earlier this year I took an acting class taught by an incredible actor named Glenn Morshower. I also studied acting in high school and college. I have started posting my recent adventures in the on-camera business and am sharing my thoughts, failures and successes as a newbie. You can find me as a top Twitter account for #actorslife and #actingtips

Acting Tip #2: Know where your character has been right before you start a new scene. He/She didn’t just drop in #actorslife #actingtips — Liz Casanova (@PulpReel) August 10, 2015
Acting Tip #3: In an audition, don’t get out of character so quickly after you finished your scene. Let it resonate #actorslife #actingtips

Acting Tip #4: Take a movement class. Or yoga. Feel comfortable in your own skin. Even if your character is awkward. #actingtips #actorslife — Liz Casanova (@PulpReel) August 20, 2015
Acting Tip #5: Respect everyone on set. Being an a**hole doesn’t make you a better actor. Just makes you an a**hole #actorslife #actingtips
