How do Actors do it??

Answer 1

Try to find out what keeps you smiling so much. I recommend you compose yourself and think seriously of the situation whenever you encounter grave matters. There's no reason to be laughing. Maybe you are just happy. =]

Answer 2

try thinking of something serious or discusting, or something that makes you angry. Like if you have a boyfriend think of him cheating on you. I know its bad, but its sure to give you a straight face. Don't think happy thoughts until your done with the conversation. Hope I Helped!!!!!!!

Answer 3

you just bite your tounge when your talking but not just hard.

Answer 4

practice, take a picture when you first wake in the morning then look at it and practice.

Answer 5
