ANOTHER STUDY OF EDGAR BERGEN.

in some studying on ventriloquist Edgar Bergen,we take notes on, Edgar Bergen wanted to be a comedian actor,he sure was a very good artist as we watch him paint with a pencil charlie McCarthy before charlie McCarthy was created, edgar Bergen knew exactly what he wanted to be when he was a child, just like basketball super star Kobe Bryant and let me mention comedian Eddie Murphy. Edgar Bergen never changed his mind, about what he wanted to do in his life,he wanted to be a comedy actor and he found that dream and that goal as a ventriloquist, Edgar Bergen was more of a actor than a ventriloquist,very good pretender at best,let me clear it up more, Edgar Bergen worked in a movie theater working the film projector, records mention Edgar Bergen would practice with Charlie McCarthy at work, watching professional actors on screen for training is a very very good idea,then you go practice what you seen on screen at work, Edgar Bergen wanted to be in show business and ventriloquism was the way in, as a shy person resources may be unreachable,not if you have a wooden partner to bounce off of. the career of ventriloquist Edgar Bergen is mind blowing, in the study you will find when Edgar Bergen performs it’s nothing more than a comedy dialogue written in a play,this is why Edgar Bergen did very well on radio, he was like Denzel Washington a very believable actor.edger Bergen was his own writer also, people could not see Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy on the radio and thought they were listening to two people,a trick of the trade, before television people only seen Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy in the cartoon image,but when Edgar Bergen found out he would be in films,he begin to work on charlie McCarthy image to become more life like or human like,not to disappoint his radio audience that was now becoming viewers,that is just mind blowing to me,why? Because people never seen charlie McCarthy, they only hear him on the radio,so it’s theater of the mind, so to bring the audience imagination into real life is amazing! how do you think of something like that, usually you going from radio to film you probably would focus on yourself but Edgar Bergen focus on the illusion,this is a ventriloquist skill called,”the illusion of life” ventriloquist Willie Tyler and Lester are very good at creating the illusion of life effects. Edgar Bergen was a master actor, people seen his lips moving while performing on stage but still believed in his magic.
