Acting plays a crucial function in the art of motion pictures. The art advance from making the audience participate in the director’s fantasy and take it as actuality. Actors are the most indelible party in a film. It is a fact that people and not technology make film as a form to express the society we live in. A unique act of art acting cannot just be faked. An actor cannot give anything out if the actor has nothing inside. In this paper, we will examine the concept of acting and the role it plays in film. We will then examine it within the context of method acting in Lancelot Oduwa Imasuen’s Invasion 1897 (2014) in order to identify and expose the slopping acting of the white cast. No doubt, the director’s casting is representational by establishing the identity of the actors of the period of the Benin Kingdom over a hundred years ago. Taking note of the above factor, this paper strives to throw the firework on the director as the master craftsman who casts his actor and is the guiding force that make all the decisions. We will then tender hints or clues towards the best bib to harness the actors of period characters by nourishing and nurturing to give a spruce acting.

Abstract

The art of filmmaking is hinged on storytelling using visual and sound to communicate a massage to an audience. Of significant importance to the director and audience is the great impact of the film and its impartation on the audience which originates from an idea that brings about the story, giving impetus to a script then to a screenplay that plays a pivotal part in it. Yet the creative aspect both interpretative and technical is the sole responsibility of the director. He develops the vision, determine the look and throws up the thematic preoccupation using his creative capacity and ability to push the technique of narration of phenomena artistic level in order to take the audience to the original opinion in his advocacy approach. This paper tries to analyse the auteur style of Nigerian Lancelot Oduwa Imasuen of narration couch in flashback that is used in exploring his advocacy approach of philosophy. First, theory is explored through primary and secondary sources to offer a background and understanding of the advocacy approach and philosophy. Second, it investigates Invasion 1897 as case study through content analysis of the film and bring to the fourths in-depth usage of the technique that exposes the salient but important theme of advocacy of return. In examining the Nigerian film, this paper observes that the Auteur theory and not the writer or collaborative theories promote and project the director, Lancelot, as the author of his film who find an artistic angle to direct the screenplay into an effective epic and sets the film in a philosophical cradle. To continue with this discourse there are three great quotations that gives direction: ‘’ The real human drama of our lives is the key to filmmaking ‘’ (Antoine Frequa qtd. in Afolabi, 2005: 36); ‘’The most important skill that a director needs is a sense of story; how to tell a story’’ (George Roy Hill qtd. in Afolabi, 2005:27); and ‘’Directing is knowing the concept you want and getting it ‘’ (Clint Eastwood qtd. in Afolabi, 2005:27).

Indonesia is a multicultural country that has a very complete and diverse cultural portrait. However, as we enter the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, which is characterized by rapid technological development, efforts are needed to strengthen Indonesia's cultural identity through the pentahelix concept to ensure that nationalism does not fade. The purpose of this research is to examine the role of pentahelix elements in strengthening cultural identity and what strategies are offered by pentahelix elements to strengthen nationalism in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. This research was conducted using descriptive qualitative methodology to reveal roles and strategies through interviews, observation, documentation, and a literature review to collect data. The informants in this study amounted to eight people, consisting of two people from the government, two people from the education world, one person from the business world, two people from the community, and one person from the media.
