"In order to continue In This profession You have to be very stubborn"
Visiting Puerto Vallarta on the anniversary of 21 ½ Eureka! Arts and Production, actor stage combat specialist, talks about the profession of being an actor.
Puerto Vallarta
how you developed as an actor and what have been your new challenges ?
I think that who is going to developed is yourself or at least that is how I see it, or is it that suddenly you are confronted with different situations cuando estas empezando tienes mucha energia, lo ideal es que tenga muchas ganas de hacer bastantes cosas, que aguantes los constantes rechazos y que eso te ayude a crear fortaleza en tu espiritu para seguir adelante.
that's how I see it has not changed, the only thing I can say for example has changed, is that now there are more Mexican cinema from when I started it was very little Mexican films were almost always the same directors a very small pull of actors, among them was my wife, now what we have tried to do with the new incentives for film is that there are more movies, more chance for actors, there more chance for directors, but the medium of television, theater, remains the same, of course, comes new people, new directors, new writers, and that gives a guideline for new stories, and you have to adapt to that, suddenly was said and thought that maybe with this post and new fashion reality shows would stop having jobs for actors, but not necessarily happened, also thought the animation would replace the need for meat and bone , of flesh and sweat, it has not gone entirely, which has always spoken, I am the son of actor, and since I've been in the middle my dad complained, or fellow dad complained of new stream of musicians beginning to act, when I entered my generation actors complained models or foreign flow, but it always has been, always will be room for talented people to not so talented people, for people beautiful, for people not so pretty, the only constant I see is that in order to continue in this race you have to be very stubborn, you have to persevere and urge.
Is the performance underappreciated career?
I believe it is undervalued, yes and no, also depending on the image you have, the more you image with the public, can give you more prestige, but the fact is that we are dedicated to the performance, yes we as outsiders of society, somehow we are inheritors of these theaters minstrels or traveling, even in the time of Shakespeare, all the actors were people who got into a tent, and that tent mounted on a carts and went around the country representing their work, living in pretty squalid conditions, then actors somehow remain outsiders, it is a difficult race, the other constant is uncertainty, finish a job and 90 percent of often do not know what is next, few good times, are given, but at the same time is also a career that gives you many satisfactions, I have done very well, without being a very famous person, or without winning millions and millions, without starring in soap operas, movies I've done and I have a career fascinating to me is really interesting to me that nourishes and fills much
What is the magic of being an actor, to be someone else?
I do not know if it's to be someone else, it depends on how you look, the magic is in making art, in art there is a moment of transcendence, in my opinion, as I see it, is when they say action, it is time when you're on stage and everything is pervaded, is currently at risk of sounding cheesy and idealistic, is a time of spiritual transcendence, you know that's the art, the art that sucks, I do not necessarily see it as this thing to interpret another person, or be someone else, who also currently one it is, is rather create art, create moments for the viewer, the viewer leave their problems, when the viewer is lulled into a chair an hour and twenty or what does the film and is immersed in a story, it's like when you're a kid and you sit with your grandfather, your father, or whoever, and tells a story, and that story makes you quiver, make you spin for days, that's the magic of storytelling and that's the magic of the actor, the magic of the artist, is a moment of transcendence.
What do you prefer, film, theater or television?
Cinema.
For you, the film has a social responsibility or their work is merely entertainment?
Social responsibility is what you decide to do at the time, for example in this film 180 degrees, the responsibility is what the film speaks, is to make a change the social responsibility of being an actor at this time by example I'm in Puerto Vallarta, for me is to make people aware that art is there, that art also makes us tick, then serves many purposes, from awareness to people there are changes to be a better person, for example too much work with the student, that submission is inspiring that is the mission of director, and I gladly participated, although not necessarily share the religious ideals of that person, or simply entertain also, it has nothing wrong with a movie Sunday best, I'm an actor who can make a movie very prickly and very strong, but also epic "epopee" as is Chicogrande, as do a romantic comedy such as Heart of melon, whose main goal is entertain.
Has there been an evolution of the histrionic art?
Yes, and is inward, the bigger you are, the more seriously you take it, the deeper you can get at you, more fiber emotional contact that is in common with you and another character, and the fictional character, then yes there is an evolution , have more capabilities, if you keep watching, if you take care of your body, if you do not lose elasticity, physical work, your body is another tool, to me what I like to explore, for example in each character are different movements, different energies, different rhythms to speak, then yes there is an evolution of your technical tools that are your body, your voice, yet deeper, and that's with all the artists who are serious about their art, their passion, the search becomes more internal, paradoxically at a time, you have more control over your tools on your canvas on your brushes on your saxophone, or about trumpet.
What is the ultimate goal of an actor?
In a selfish way, reusing paradoxical word is from the inside out, get in, finally also do it for yourself, there is nothing more for the viewer, go inward for you, so that in, that fiber be reflected in your eyes, your eyes are full of images and thoughts that captures the audience , what is happening to this guy, right now at this time I is squeezing the tummy? ", is where the stories also become magical, is to go from the inside out. Now, an art, too, but you also have to be pragmatic and must live.
What can you tell us about the movie 180 degrees that are promoting?
180 degrees was released this week, first in Monterrey,is Fernando Kalife movie, we did four years ago in Monterrey, and is just out, is a film with a bill really first world, a pretty cool movie, with a super performance, super direction, I am very proud to have made this film, it is also important, but also marks a pattern, a difference with the characters I've been playing.
