役者
With the actor (I say yes), it points at an occupation and a person doing it in person performing at a certain position in drama or it.
It is similar in a TV drama, the movie other than the living theater.
I am called the actor.
A performance in particular is good, and there is the thing that the famous actor is called a great actor (a niece says).
A description in the this clause is a description about the Japanese actor mainly.
There is a meaning called "the person who assumes a play an occupation" in the character of "the A" of the actor.
Therefore, the actor is an equivalent of actor.
The person who is a woman tends to call it an actress , but this supports actress.
When I am called an actor , there is the actor of the man for this, but I compare it with an actress probably because I remind you of an AV actor, and the use frequency is low, and there are many cases generally to be called an actor.
However, it is assumed that such a name is emphasis of the women, and there is the mass media which which case man and woman calls with an actor in news recently (an example)： NHK "the studio park hello").
When I share an actor to man and woman, there are many cases to sort by real sex, but call it with a male part played by a woman, a female-impersonator (or I use a daughter) by a position playing the part in the case of Kabuki or Takarazuka all-women's opera, and there is the case playing the position who is different from the real sex.
Other than the above, the actor less than a primary schoolchild is called a child's part regardless of sex.
The actor is a name to hint at the whole executor in a wide sense, but, in modern Japan, excludes of ability, Kabuki, the tradition such as new school actors and a person by the special performance method from the meaning of the wide sense, and there is a thing saying with the actor of the narrow sense having an executor sharing the new school of drama and this and methodology.
The duties of the occupation actor are based on the script (a scenario) to produce a libretto product aimed for opening it to the public for spectators commercially and cooperate with a producer, a director, the bottom of guidance / the instructions such as movie directors, a costar or the production staff and hit the presentation and photography and are to play the cast (the cast) given.
Make arrangements I do not handle the performance of merely public performance, and to give a substantial performance after being usually made with a position as the process and is accompanied with an enormous preliminary arrangement to repeat a lesson, a rehearsal.
In addition, there is the actor participating in a political activity, but the Japanese actor is afraid of width of the future work and some consumer detached rooms traditionally, and do not begin to remain with politics color; show a tendency.
There was a decision called five agreements from 1950's to 1960's, and appearance to any place other than the movie of the own company production was limited, and so-called movie star who bound a movie company and an exclusive belonging contract together was divided a territory into definitely.
Therefore we have the circumstances that I could not but depend on the actors such as Kabuki world or the new school of drama for in the early TV saga.
The TV drama of the commercial broadcasting of the same period was similar and I imported overseas dramas and broadcasted it and dealt with a drama to produce in a TV station in what I appointed an actor except the movie star and a new face as.
It was 1970's, and five agreements collapsed with the decline of the Japanese movie naturally, and, besides, it was it earlier, and the outside order of the TV drama produced telecine, and the movie and the fence with the television approximately became extinct, but movie companies increased to the case which entered the playacting from the other genre than before because the system which I did not rely on was already established in the production spot of the TV drama by a movie star.
But I tend I make much of whether you can take relations with a TV station and position office or the program sponsor and the popularity of the actor individual namely the audience rating than the ability of the actor in the TV drama, and to do casting, and there is an audience when casting to feel doubt is done.
I am led by a TV station, and, after 1990's, the case that filmmaking is performed is commonly used, and there is the domain of the production-style (the style that the person who does not assume playacting a main profession holds an additional business with an actor) of the TV drama in an enlarged tendency.
On the other hand, there is the person who is active by variety programs while introducing itself as an actor a lot, and the division called the actor as the occupation becomes vague.
About this, I am different from U.S.A. which the setting of the movie star establishes, and although on-duty hours are long, the environment of the financially underprivileged Japanese actor can be pointed out, but the sense of values of the actor individual and the problem of the policy of the position office are big.
In addition, I can include playacting, and there are the various active people while assuming the occupation of each native place a main profession to the last, and there is a case to be called multi-talented people.
When it is evaluated, there is this, but it is often that it is looked from a negative viewpoint.
It is said to be gorgeous one side, the severe world the playacting.
Because it is just few I am famous, and to be used as an actor, and the income is not stable, there are many failing people.
In addition, there is not the guarantee needed with an actor all the time.
