Quote examples
Andrea Riseborough
English Actress
I always do a lot of work around characters to make them real people because, oftentimes, they really are a sliver of a person. Even with truly wonderful writers, women characters are there to emote, and they're often incredibly chaste or worthy. Or they're a 'different type of woman', which is the worst.
Quote examples
Anita Hassanandani Reddy
Indian Actress
Gutur Gu' is a silent comedy, which I had never done. I wanted to do something out of the box. It's exciting, tough, and fun. Dialogues are very important for actors, and to emote without them took some getting used to. It's giving me scope to learn a lot.
Quote examples
Matthew Quick
American Writer
I'm an incredibly emotional person, but I always feel bad about that. The work is therapy... I need to emote wildly while I write. I weep. I'll laugh, get excited, and get up and pace. I try to take the emotional journey with the characters.
Quote examples
Maura Tierney
American Actress
What appealed to me was that the focus of 'North Atlantic' was more about performance rather than emoting, because I was at a point in life where it was nice not to have to emote all over the place.
Quote examples
Bipasha Basu
Indian Actress
I am so enriched because so much has happened in my life. The way I can express myself is because of the life I have led. It's only when you experience life can you emote it.
Quote examples
Ayesha Takia
Indian Actress
I wouldn't say portraying a character in a film like 'Wanted' was easy. But it was fairly easier than playing a role where one is expected to emote more depth on screen.

All over the world, actors and actresses are chosen for their performing skills. Not how they look or what they wear. It is all about how they act, how they emote.

I am a product of theatre and whatever I learned there helped me emote in front of the camera.
