Actors Performance

The special effects, even though a lot of the time are amazing and we love them, we do not consider how actors take it. We do not always like the movie as we do not like the actors or their performance. We do not however tend to give it a second thought as to why this may be. Actors’ work is really hard. Depending on what kind of movies/programs they act in, they may be required to perform in front of a green screen for long hours. It may be that before the shoot they have to spend hours and hours in a chair while people draw thousands of dots on their face and body. This is of course if they are to do any motion capture. The actor would then have to be in a room lit only by artificial lighting in front of a green screen for hours. It is not an easy job. Actors are pushed beyond their limits, working unacceptable amounts of hours for a few hours of our amusement. A lot of the time, if they are not as popular, they are not even appreciated enough which seems like a huge waste of time and effort.
