To all Lisa Edelstein fans:

I'm doing this 10-20 minute presentation on Lisa for my a class, and I am trying to find THE perfect clip to show that encaptures her best acting, most emotion, just everything that shows how awesome she is. So I ask you guys, what House episode/scene/other TV show/work that she has done deserves an award? If you could pick only one (because we all know she deserves many awards :D).
This would help me tremendously &hearts &hearts I have a few clips already but I'm way over the time limit lol and need to choose just one &hearts.

1 more thing to add to the randomness of my night.

Question: How do you guys judge if an actor is good or not?/define a great actor? I have previously based my opinions on how different the character is from the actual actor. Like Gillian Anderson and Scully, for example. So completely different, and to me that's just a sign of an awesome actor, because Scully is so believable as a person. But then I'm thinking of method acting, and how some actors think back to what they would do in certain situations, and that is how they play their characters...So I guess I'm saying that I don't think that's great acting as much as it is calling upon emotions that you would feel in a given situation? IDEK, it confuses me so much tbh. I just thought if this when I saw this quotation:

"In acting, I always try to go back to what would actually be the real situation, the real human behavior in life. It's the most difficult thing, and the easiest thing, and it's all you need - the truth of the moment. If you give too much, if you telegraph things, you weaken it." -Robert DeNiro

I want to know your thoughts! Conversation, anything :D

PRE-SEASON 6 HOUSE MD
FRIENDING MEME


Last Sunday of freedom before school starts again!

Just did a very small friends cut, for people that haven't posted in several months/I haven't talked to in longer. If you feel I cut you, er, wrongly? haha, then feel free to PM me about it :)

( Happy Birthday Lisa E )

Happy birthday Lisa Edelstein!!!

Anything I write I feel will sound sappy or full of overthetop modifiers. But Lisa Edelstein is one of the most inspirational people and I hope that she's having an amazing birthday right now partying in NYC &hearts &hearts

She's never afraid to answer truthfully, she always speaks her mind and with such poise and elegance. When you see videos of reporters asking her rude questions she's able to answer the questions so that the reporter does not feel badly while politely only briefly answering the question. I especially loved it when at Monte Carlo someone asked her about Petri and her response was just flawless and I wish I had this video link.

She surrounds herself with positive people. Going to events with Bryan Rabin, being friends with James St. James, being so fucking awesome with Regina King, taking photos at the Stephen Sprouse party with Michael Schmidt, and so many more.

How she speaks out about AIDs, and pregnancy and abstinence, always knowing the right things to say. Her involvement with Planned Parenthood, her realism and hope to really educate people about all of this, she's just so intelligent about these topics and when she adds humor in it's just perfect &hearts (In trying to come up with a reasonable response to my alleged pregnancy, I've decided the only thing to do is blame it all on Palin.)

Her style &hearts The evolution of it through the years, even just from 2004 to now, it's so cool looking back and seeing her at events with kneehigh boots and a skirt, and now seeing her in LBDs. Her owl purse, butterfly ring, spider necklace, and freaking awesome black tote (which one day I will find in stock), and the fact that she paints her own nails saghsklaghskldhg &hearts. And how could I forget her stunning curved/tusk/taper earrings!! (thanks Sarah haha)

I have no idea how to use final cut pro.
I spent several days converting ALL the House episodes from .avi to .mov, and then I put them in FCP and they *still* need rendering.
and IDEK how to render! Can someone who understands this please explain it to me :)?? And then I thought I might need to set the sequence compressor to match the compressor of the clips, and I did just that. But I still can't even preview the clips. And I don't know where clip splitting is! aghhhh
:(
