My BOL Script - Episode 8
The art of bad acting from Kate Tsui
Kate is in Kenneth's room, she looks confused. Kate touches different objects in her room, she was thinking about her brother. Suddenly, the door bell rings, Kate rushes out of the room, runs funny towards the door. She thought it was Steven, she yelled, "go away, go away!" She seems mad, then she opens the door, only found out it was Ron behind the door.
Kate's face changed, she calms down. Ron looks at her, "are you ok?" Kate looks at him, couldn't say anything. She wasn't sure how to react, her facial expression was boring.
Kate turns around, walks away from the door, she holds her arm, she suppose to be very sad, but she looks mad. Ron closes the door behind him, he says, "Kate, at this moment, you should find a friend to share your feelings, you will feel better."
Kate still holds her arm, all the sudden, out of no where, she turns around and hugs Ron. Ron was surprised by her action. The camera showed Kate's face. She has no tears, and she opens her mouth and yelled, "Ah!" Was that crying? Ron thought. Ron closes his eyes, only wishing he can close his ear too...
Acting & Directing Lesson 101:
1. If the actress can not cry, put some tear drops. Faking the crying scene can be very disturbing.
2. If the director wants to promote someone, try to find a right role. In this case, Kate is not the right actress for this role.
3. If the actress can not act, do not turn the camera on her for too long. In this case, when Kate was hugging Ron, the camera stopped on her for a good long second, we can see her poor acting so clearly, that results a bad scene.
4. To the camera man: DO NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT, give a big head shot if the actress can not act at all.

yes, her acting is no good. she still a newcomer, give her time to improve. don't forget when charmaine sheh started her acting, also no good. Audience keep complaining about her acting skills. But now, she is improve, good in acting, audience accept her. so maybe one day kate will like charmaine, acting skills is improve, audience accept her. :)
