1. Running in heels

Before filming, the actresses prepare for several months, get used to the image, and train. For example, Bryce Dallas Howard trained her ankles to run in heels while preparing for the filming of Jurassic World. And Lucy Liu, while training, realized that while running in heels, you need to rely not on the heel, but on the front of the foot.

2. How to hold back laughter

Often the actors can hardly restrain themselves from laughing and ruining the take. To control their laughter, the actors begin to discreetly bite themselves on the inside of their cheeks. Jennifer Aniston in "Friends" hid a laugh by bringing her hands to her face.

3. Scenes in bed

To act nude in the bath or in the shower, the actresses do not undress but go to different tricks. For example, Mindy Kaling wears a nude swimsuit that has no straps. And Amy Adams sticks special flesh-colored pads on her chest and bikini area. Also, many actresses use silicone pads.

4. Required reaction

In order for the actors to “give out” the desired reaction, directors and filming partners decide on improvisation. So, for example, Gary Oldman hid a zucchini behind his back and showed it to Winona Ryder at the right time. The actress reacted as the director needed. And on the set of the movie “It”, the clown performed by Billy Skarsgard was not shown to the children ahead of time. When the day came for them to shoot together, the child actors were really scared.

5. Mint kisses

To prevent bad breath from interfering with filming, Hollywood actors eat mints before kissing. But if artists from Austria or the UK are filming in Hollywood, they may find the mint offer a nasty hint.

6. Sweat effect

To create the effect of sweat, the actors are smeared with glycerin, petroleum jelly, and even lip gloss. The artist can be poured with water. But this method is used only in hot weather. If it is cool outside or in the pavilion, then they stop at the above methods.

7. Food in the frame

If the actors ate in the frame for real, they would quickly acquire extra pounds. Therefore, the stars in the frame just chew, and when the take is filmed, they spit food into a bucket. If you pay attention, you can see that the actors do not swallow food.

8. Crying children

When a director needs a small child to cry in the frame, he turns to a special person who brings him to tears. But don't panic! The specialist does not harm the baby. He just makes a sad face and starts crying. The child, seeing this, is also upset and begins to roar.

9. Headphones

To achieve complex emotion, the actors wear an inconspicuous earpiece in their ear. At the right moment, a joke, suitable music, or a pre-prepared cue is served into it. Thus, the actor can play emotion without words. Johnny Depp listened to a baby crying, and Robert Downey Jr. - alternative lines.

Roles of blind people

Actors can be very difficult to believably play a blind person. In the movie “All I See Is You,” Blake Lively wore lenses that blocked her vision. Over time, the eyes adapted, and each time the actress had to wear thicker lenses.

Extras actors

Often in the background, you can see minor people who live their lives and discuss something. So that extraneous speech does not interfere with the work of the main stars, the extras do not say the words out loud, but simply move their lips. But the unintelligible rumble of the crowd is added already during editing.
