Picture this: it’s early 1900’ and you’re a opera singer or an actor for a Shakespeare’s play and you’re asked to give your opinion on Cinema… and someone theorize even TV to you.
I know what you’re going to say: these talentless people is coming to steal your job.
Cinema is not a recognized art form: is a gimmick, a trick made with a huge number of photos.
Those who want to call themselves “actors” are just talentless people who need “one right shot” and being patched in a sequence of “right shots” to complete a wanna-be play. But that not how you make are: every night, every play, you need to walk on stage, in front of the public and deliver “true” art.
Advice? If you were an actor for live theater in the beginning of the 1900… just shut up for a a pair of decades to make sure is not actually art: or you’re going to record in the history how much of a… uhm… short sighted person you were.
Humans make arts, humans decide what’s art… Usually this happen in the switch of the next generation of humans: everything can be a tool for art, future generations of humans decide if they want to call it art or not.
