Family: He grew up as the youngest child in a large family. “I have five cousins and a brother. Since I was the smallest, all bad jokes were made to me, but I was cherished the most. My mother is the most anxious in the world and my grandfather is one of the funniest people in the world. I got my acting skills from my grandfather.”
Childhood years: He decided to become an actor when he was only 8 years old. Until his college years, he was not a kid loved by the children at school. “I would fight, I would misbehave, I was a rebel. I studied in private schools. But I could never adapt. My teachers at the school already knew that I wanted to be an actor. Thanks, they never treated me like I was going to study business. In “Berker will already be an actor, let him hang around” mode, they always freed me. ”
Education life: He graduated from Istanbul Bilgi University Cinema and Television Department.
First step into acting: He had his first acting experience with the movie Babam in 2017.
With which project did he shine? He drew attention with the character “Aleksi” in the TV series “Wounded Love”.
Personality traits: “I can say that Berker, whom I have known until now, is hardworking, passionate, sensitive, sensitive and helpful. My general mood is like a song. They have chords, they have ups and downs. It has a feeling, it has a rhythm. It’s never monotonous or stable. I can say that my every state is a part of the whole. ”
Personal development: In the past years, he went to the USA and worked with Susan Batson, who has been the actor coach of famous names such as Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Juliette Binoche, Kristen Dunst, and also took lessons from actor coaches Robert Verlaque and Sheila Gray.
Mindset: He thinks that acting improves his empathy. “What the world needs most right now is for people to be emotional and sensitive. We got very cruel. Everyone thought of themselves, their interests. On top of that, I think the meanings of some concepts have changed a lot for people. Love, love, happiness, value, spirituality. When you ask people about the meaning of these concepts, you get very strange answers in this era. In order not to lose the basic meaning of these concepts and to live like that, acting makes it easier to live life from an emotional and sensitive place. ”
What kind of person is he on set? He makes use of various methods in preparation for the characters he plays. “While preparing for the character, I cut off communication with the outside world as much as possible. I dive into the script, scene by scene. If the character has a healing process, I plot it. In short, I work hard. ”
First motion picture: Onur Ünlü / Topal Şükran’ın Maceraları
The look at love: “Unfortunately, love is not a constant feeling. For example, when we start a relationship, we can stay in love for a long time. Then love begins to change form. It leaves its place to more eternal feelings. Like love, compassion, peace. Then, as we continue our lives in those emotions, there are some moments that we fall in love again. Relationship is not something we always love. A quote from Alex Hitch Hitchens reflects my view of love very well. He says: “Life is not the sum of the moments when we breathe, but the sum of the moments that take our breath away.” This is how I look at love. ”
His view of life: He thinks that the artist is doomed to disappear if he is caught in recognition, fame and fame. “Those who don’t get lost in it are actually the ones who can remain artists. Look, for example, İpek Bilgin. Silk Currently all know Turkey. But he is the most sincere, heartfelt and humble person you can ever know. Sometimes I look at him and I’m amazed, I ask myself, even “I wonder if he doesn’t know that he is famous?” Then I look, it really does not exist. Because he doesn’t care. I think this causes him to make his art like water, free of all labels.
His view of business life: He sees his job as a motivation to live life with your emotions. “Acting gives away this motivation. Because he must be the most attractive part. The most unbearable part is that people are positioning you in a different place. No friend! You are real estate agent, teacher, student, astronaut, scientist; I am also an actor. The only difference of my job is that I am being watched while doing my job. Well, what’s the point of doing it if there is no audience while I’m doing my job? What will I tell? So it is also natural. Nothing to magnify! When people put you in an unexpected place, you have to constantly remind yourself that this is an illusion. I’m not blaming the audience here. The audience must exist somehow so that we can continue to tell and convey something as an artist. Crime is in the perception of a globally created ‘industry’. And in organizations that portray what is happening in the lives of people who work on the screen with magazines, news, and various social media channels as if it is more important than what is happening in someone else’s life. And this is something that makes the artist’s job difficult. “
Is it theater? TV? He feels more free on the theater stage. “There are many parameters in front of the camera. However, you are very free in the theater. The stage is you and you play as you wish. If I find a good play, I want to be on the stage again. I just have to love it, it should be content with me. ”
Career plan: Projects with a social layer attract his attention. He likes the learning part of creating a new character most. For example, while studying a mentally disabled character, you learn why it originates, its behaviors, and its approach to life, I love this learning situation. Studying character opens up an incredible learning space in life. Best of all, whatever you experience in life works for you. Even if you are lost, you can use that feeling somewhere. I fill my life bag with what I’ve been through. I have a feature film script, it is in the drawer, I added two more scripts next to it. I continue to write whenever I have time. Acting is a way that I have been dreaming about and progressing since I was 8 years old, but I cannot say the same for writing. So I have to work a little more. ”
Dream of the Future: 10 years later, he imagines himself as a father. He really wants to start a family. “This is my wish. I want child. I want it if I feel that I am with the right person. When I say I will be happy wherever I see myself in the future; I answer that when I start a family. Career is not so important. I just need to do things that I will love, tell the story and the trouble. At the end of the day, I want to be able to convey something to people, touch their hearts. ”
Who does he admire? The master actors, whom he has had the opportunity to work on projects he has been involved in, admire Çetin Tekindor, Halit Ergenç and Fikret Kuşkan. “I learned acting in front of the camera from Çetin Tekindor. This is wonderful. I learned consistency from Halit Ergenç. Halit brother, very conditioned. I learned how you protect it. Our acting styles with Fikret brother are similar. He also plays by living. He is very immersed in his own character. After all, this is the chance after I have done my best. I am a very hard working actor. Working pays off. I have worked all my life to be an actress. I think working with these masters is not a chance, but the result of my hard work. ”
The criterion for attractiveness in women: It does not consider external beauty as a criterion. “If a person is ugly then you haven’t looked at him enough. I really think so. External beauty is not even a criterion for me. The character of man will be beautiful. If you look for external beauty, there are a million beautiful people on the street. There are no people left who are beautiful inside. Dexterity finds him. ”
