1
Can I be completely honest?
2
Because I just chose clay because I haven't touched clay in like 12 years.
3
But I think you guys may have overestimated my abilities.
4
Oh, I'm going to figure it out.
5
But just so you know, I don't even know what that means.
6
Hi, my name is Jenna Ortega and today I'm going to attempt a self-portrait with clay. Who is this middleman?
7
Who is it?
8
Yeah, what does he do?
9
This is my guy.
10
Here we go.
11
I had to have been six or seven.
12
My parents weren't home.
13
They were doing either at work or back to school night or something.
14
So my older sister was watching me.
15
And she was watching the movie Man on Fire with Mark Anthony and Dakota Fanning and Denzel Washington.
16
and I saw young Dakota in that movie.
17
Her performance made me so emotional and I felt
18
so invested in her character and her story and what happened that it made me want to do that.
19
Her performances were always so mature.
20
She felt like a grown woman trapped in this tiny,
21
you know, sweet little girl's body and mind and imagination that I think I was just captivated by her.
22
She was so fascinating.
23
And as someone who was close to my age, I just kind of clung onto her because I thought she was the coolest.
24
When my parents came home, I told them, I said, you know that movie Man on Fire?
25
And they said, why were you watching Man on Fire?
26
And I said, I'm gonna be the Puerto Rican version of Dakota Fanning.
27
And then they laughed and then we all went to bed and forgot about it, or at least they did.
28
And then I just kind of harassed them for years and years until they let me do it.
29
I think my mom gave me this monologue book to kind of shut me up
30
because she did not want to take me to LA to join this crazy business.
31
I memorized so many of those just to show my parents
32
that I was invested and that I was willing to work hard
33
and make something real and tangible out of this interest of mine.
34
I started watching a ton of movies, a ton of shows, things that maybe were even out of my depth
35
because I was so fascinated and curious and wanted to sound like I knew what I was talking about.
36
I think I almost became an actor out of spite because they didn't take me seriously,
37
so I showed them and I was lucky enough to fall in love with it and have this connection with it.
38
But yeah, whenever they came home from school, it was reading the book.
39
I used to say that I want to be a nurse.
40
I have siblings who are entering the medical field.
41
My mom is an ER nurse all her life.
42
I need something to be obsessed with.
43
I would love to be an investigative journalist, where you just kind of delve into what's going on in the world and being able to inform people.
44
It's a job that never gets boring, kind of like what I do now.
45
That or maybe a historian of some sort where I just randomly
46
know a lot about something that other people probably wouldn't think twice about.
47
To me, there's nothing more attractive
48
or enticing about a person than someone who speaks on something
49
that that they're really passionate about and you learn a lot from those people.
50
This is a meat man, I'm sorry, this is so ugly.
51
Like he's just a meat man.
52
The show that I do right now, I have to play the cello and I don't play the cello
53
and I want it to look real so that cellists don't look at it and call me mean names.
54
My teacher told me that as long as I looked confident in my movements
55
and I was strong and stoic and fully embodied the character that it would be fine.
56
She told me that I just needed to approach everything I do in life with the confidence of the average white man.
57
And that changed my life.
58
I feel better.
59
I was nervous to even do this because I ramble like crazy.
60
So I was like, man, what am I going to talk about for all this time?
61
And then I just remembered, how would an average white man do this?
62
And he probably would have shown up with mismatched socks.
63
I just feel like a lot of things are sound bites now.
64
People's attention span is, I feel like it's rapidly decreasing.
65
And I don't know if that's just because scrolling and TikTok, I think that's what we all say and that's kind of what we assume.
66
But I think a lot of times when you do an interview now, people are just waiting for that one bite or the one headline.
67
And the things that they ask you to touch upon are often trends and viral clips and moments and things that, yeah, sure, it's fun to acknowledge and appreciate and talk about.
68
But I feel like the internet doesn't know when to quit it or when to drop something.
69
And then when they do drop something, it's brutal.
70
It's just very sheet mentality, bandwagon mentality, and I feel like people oftentimes don't even read a full interview anymore.
71
They read a tweet of something that somebody said that probably is misworded, and then it's that.
72
I don't know, it's just very hostile.
73
It's a new time.
74
Yeah, especially because I'm a rambler.
75
I feel like I have all of these different trains of thought going on in my head at all times.
76
I'm terrified to see everything that I've said written down because it makes no sense.
77
So much of my job is socializing and communicating with people that I forget to do that with myself.
78
I get fearful of the way that I interact with people because I leave a social interaction and I think, oh man, I didn't even sound like myself.
79
And it's like, you don't even know what yourself would sound like.
80
Writing is very informative for me in that way.
81
I think when I write, oftentimes I just get to come up with the best version of myself.
82
Everything is cleaner.
83
It's more to the point.
84
I have a better vocabulary.
85
I was on like an hour flight to get here because I didn't have reception or anything for this hour flight.
86
I read through this journal that I've had for the past year
87
and I was so fascinated because it was my life but it almost was from a different perspective.
88
It almost didn't feel like mine so it felt like I was meeting someone again
89
and I think that that's wonderful as well to have documentation of how you're changing and growing as a person.
90
It's the first time I've actually really looked back at my writing
91
and been grateful and appreciative towards myself for taking the time and making that a priority.
92
I'm starting to feel adjacent to myself again.
93
I think there was a time where my life went through such a transformative experience that I felt very lost.
94
I didn't have enough time to connect with myself.
95
I felt like an image of myself was being projected that I didn't resonate with.
96
It's very easy for me to become very pessimistic and in my head and negative about things.
97
And I've kind of seen my language become more constructive rather than harmful.
98
I don't think I would have picked up on that
99
or been able to appreciate that had I not had that written down and documented.
100
He kind of, on accident, is looking like one of the aliens from Mars attacks, I think.
101
I never said he was going to be pretty.
102
And I actually think he's more interesting if he's not.
103
Oh, I forgot that I could use this.
104
With the character that I do or the jobs that I play, everything is very dark and horror,
105
comedy, and I think that oftentimes people think that that's what I'm like.
106
And don't get me wrong, I love dark humor.
107
I love the jobs that I work on.
108
They're so much fun and entertaining for me.
109
But I think people would probably be surprised to know that I'm a little bit...
110
I don't want to do an interview and go, I'm silly or anything like that.
111
But I am, I don't think I'm as intense as maybe I always come across, which is fine.
112
I think because the character Wednesday has been such a thing, which I'm so, so great before and is so incredible and entirely unexpected, I think oftentimes people just see me as that.
113
I don't know what makes me unique.
114
I think that's kind of somebody else's job.
115
No, it's not.
116
I guess you kind of have to figure that out for yourself.
117
Just took my nail off.
118
Don't look.
119
I've got my Wednesday nails on under here.
120
I think we're just going to set this to the side and not worry about it.
121
I appreciate how curious I am.
122
I do think I ask a lot of questions.
123
I'm very, very analytical about things and I feel like I'm more interested in observing
124
and taking in and being aware of what's going on around me.
125
Sorry, this man, he's dying on me.
126
Right now I'm reading books that are around my job that I'm doing right now.
127
I brought Frankenstein, I brought Dracula, I brought all of the darker books that I have.
128
I have like a Clockwork Orange, but I'm currently reading a music reviewer named Mark Fisher, who I'm just learning about.
129
I don't know, he just speaks about his opinions and views on things and somehow ties it to these artists.
130
I went into the bookstore trying to get capitalist realism.
131
They didn't have that book but they had his last book.
132
Just having a moment. Or this guy.
133
I love to run and I used to love to run while I was younger.
134
I get to
135
I get to put all my energy towards that or have some sort of endorphin release based off of that, which is incredible and amazing and really exciting.
136
I want to wrap this guy up.
137
I can give him nice little pants and bows and things.
138
Did I say that I can't multitask? Because I can't.
139
I think you're cooler if you're weird.
140
I think it's probably better to exercise any sort of self-expression whenever you can, even if that means walking down the street and if you want to walk in a zigzag, walk in a zigzag.
141
We're creatures of habit and routine, and if you're able to break that and remind yourself that you have free will and can do whatever you want, I think that that's really beneficial.
142
That's labeled as weird, even though it's not really weird, because whatever societal standards or whatever is trending or important online tells you otherwise.
143
And I think that that's so lame.
144
And if we all look the same and sound the same, then we're screwed.
145
My friend told me to make a bowl, and I should have.
146
But now we have this guy.
147
I think he has a story.
148
I think he has a background.
149
I think he's a survivor.
150
I should have been more considerate towards this man, and I wasn't.
151
What are you going to do?
152
He's got a little bow.
153
His arms will go like that.
154
There you go.
155
There's your meat man.
156
And his name is, we're gonna go with Gherkenberger.
157
He came here today, he dressed well and put himself together
158
and put one foot in front of the other
159
and I think he's a great role model for young people today
160
because with any sort of belief in yourself or any sort of ambition
161
or drive despite your hardships you could end up in a 45 minute long self portrait Vanity Fair interview.
162
Thank you.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
