You don\u2019t think about what you\u2019re doing, you just do it.<\/strong> That is the true essence of innocence. Innocence, in part, is some mysterious operation of the imagination, the part that can enter into mental realms from which one is soon to distant from. When you can fall into innocence with your character, that\u2019s when you truly connect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When getting ready for your next audition or performance do you consider asking yourself; What is the true essence of your character?<\/strong> As an actor, this is something I think about practically every day. You arrive to it when you are present. As you move throughout your days, have you ever stumbled upon a luscious moment, a moment where you\u2019re so connected that everything around you is in sync? I\u2019m sure you have, maybe you just haven\u2019t noticed it. This is when you are living in your true essence.<\/p>\n<p>As I have begun to dive deeper and deeper into my studies, I have found myself rather interested in breaking down my characters. Whether it be for a voiceover, TV or film, connecting to the true essence of your character is key for that connection to come alive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Being an artist requires passion, persistence and boundless vulnerability.<\/strong> Scary, right? Throw innocence into the mix and you\u2019ve got a pot of gold for layers in your performance. If you\u2019re new to the game, it\u2019s best to practice where you feel most safe, and where you won\u2019t break the bank. Nerves get the best of us every now and then, so if that\u2019s the case, this is something you can always practice on your own. If this isn\u2019t your first rodeo, I would suggest working with someone you have worked with before. With this established relationship you can \u201cplay\u201c and take risks you may have otherwise felt uncomfortable to. That brings me to my playtime at Edsger\u2018s Studio.<\/p>\n<p>When deep in my character study, I reached out to Edsger, a friend of mine and very talented photographer. I asked if we could do a test shoot, simply focusing on three di\ufb00erent characters. There was basic planning, but not over planning as this was intended for practical growth. It\u2019s all about seeing you after your process. Seeing in real time who you were able to become. Being flexible with a goal in mind works best here. With that said, we talked about the following characters; a reporter, teacher, sales clerk, hit woman, and judge.<\/p>\n<p>Before this session, we had worked together once before. That was the day we went with the no plan, plan. We started with some basic beauty portraits, which is Edsger\u2018s style. The results were truly incredible, it being our first look and shoot. I knew right away after seeing this set of images that we were going to create some amazing things together. Our artistry was in sync and I felt supported.<\/p>\n<p>When I arrived to Edsger\u2019s Studio I had intended to start with a wig for the first time. Over the past few years, my manager had suggested this to try out a new look without making the drastic change right away. I had always thought about it, but never did it for whatever reason. So today was the day! When I put it on, right away I could feel it transforming me. Looking at myself in the mirror was so interesting to me. I had never seen myself look anything like this before. With the makeup, wig and just the right wardrobe, I was ready to walk onto the set and become someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Right away I fell in love with Jackie, that\u2019s what I named her. Her brown shaggy mullet gave her a contrasting sense of edgy innocence. While taking these shots, I was really in my head, in a good way. Thinking about the moment before the shot was taken\u2026 What was Jackie doing, who was she with, what was her motive? Asking myself these questions as I heard the click of the camera shutter is what made an impressionable di\ufb00erence in the eyes of the character. I can totally see it in the final capture. A win for both myself and the photographer.<\/p>\n<p>Moving on to Ms. Pennington, a reporter that has had her fair share of appearances in court. At times ruthless, she\u2019s the type of woman who never picks a side but her own, goes for what she wants and will settle for nothing less than that. At the age of 10, her family was involved in an unsolved case that made headlines. This is what fuels her. She believes she will be able to finally put this to rest. Determined with a plan, it is her mission bring the truth to light.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-162181\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dailyactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/headshots-caitlin-weiler.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dailyactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/headshots-caitlin-weiler.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.dailyactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/headshots-caitlin-weiler-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dailyactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/headshots-caitlin-weiler-80x80.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For the last look I put on a red lip and applied several temporary tattoos. That\u2019s when Adira came to life. This Hebrew name meaning \u2018strong\u2019 is both simple yet exotic, just like her. A troubled past filled with heart is what drives this characters motive. She feels the need to hold a tough exterior to mask the deep wounds that live inside. She\u2019s deeply sad but uses reactivity to hide behind her truth. She is a force to be reckoned with, a beautiful medley of distress and grit.<\/p>\n<p>As actors, we all have our own unique processes that bring light to the characters we play. We are constantly evolving, learning and changing, so our processes must too. I dare you to dive deep, live fully in your character, and find their true essence. If you unapologetically pour your heart into what you believe in, even if it makes you vulnerable, amazing things can and will happen.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in booking a session with Edsger you can connect with him <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/portraits.by.edsger\/\">@portraits.by.edsger via Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Caitlin Patricia Weiler is an actress, writer, host, athlete, and model.
