The first example of directing actors showed clips from movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona by Woody Allen, who is famous for just casting the right actor for the role and saying almost nothing to them before or during the shooting. And he gets amazing performances from the performers!
There's a hilarious parody of this in Altman's The Player, w Richard E Grant fiercely pitching his "vision" to Tim Robbins, w Dean Stockwell acting as the "referee" lol
I think you can be all of these whitout issue. Not sure that i agree on these classifications but i i where to accept them for the sake of argument i feel there is at least alot of crossover between them.
Interesting, In my experience most Directors invoke all these aspects and everything in between. Whatever the approach, the Director is the head creative leader and makes the final decision. When Directors don't, the film collapses
Been a Director for a decade and always thought of myself as an "Actor's Director" but when you did your description, I feel I'm more of a "Collaborative Director." I emphasis on team work. A trusting collaborator.
@@NostalgiNorden although he starred in theatre work, he didnt really 'come from the theatre' in the same way wed talk about someone like daniel day lewis
Great input. But I strongly disagree on the "directing actors is the most important job". A good film is more than just a performance of an actor. It's the directors most important job to know how important each and every department is and how to use all of these tools in coherence to tell the story with everything at their disposal. Hitchcocks films for example aren't great, because he could direct actors well. He most importantly knew what to show in the viewer at what time in what way and angle to provoke a certain thought, emotion or perception. I think this craft gets lost in todays world and leads to the flood of boring and less than average movies.
I agree in most of what you say, but watch a technically well made film with amateur acting. I would rather watch a below par technically poor film with natural acting, than a wooden acting team with great visuals.

"They use a lot of wide shots to show the grandeur of their vision" got me laughing way harder than it should have xD

I’ve been directing for 13 years.. I feel like I dabble in all of these areas
That was a really interesting summary. Thanks.
Me resultó muy útil y aprendí más que cualquier otro, gracias
My two main priorities are the ACTION and PERFORMANCES.

Interesting. Thank you for this overview.
Excellent

This was really useful
Thank you 😊
Really good video but a quick note, Spielberg does NOT rehearse.
Nice!
often "Actor's Directors" come from a stage background. Their work tends to be a bit more play-like in nature.
Tarantino comes from the theater but he is a very visual director.

This dude has a strong neck
And I am a Autocratical, Technical and Actor's director haha
Then there’s Scorsese, who’s all the above.
...So when are you going to tell us: HOW DO YOU DIRECT ACTORS?
