Learn to detect human emotions on the face. Learn to tell politicians and/or business man telling lies through body movement, freudian slips, text and voice analysis and many more.
I've got four videos from why we protest. This is the first one... and it's divided into 9 parts. I have a lot of work to do but it's ok considering i'm doing something good with my new learned skill.
First of all we have to take into account that this is a interview. If you know something about television it's that nothing is what is seems to be. They probably discussed what the question were going to be. The interviewee had enough time to prepare appropriate answer's and if it's the case rehears and analyze his feelings about the subject. So it should be pretty hard to tell if he is lying about a particular point.
When you start talking with someone his and your body position is very important. Every little detail in you posture, where and how your hands are, your facial expression(as you hear the other person talk), your breathing can give an observer some clue about what you are feeling. Bought of them are keeping they're hand's crossed as a shield. It can first of all mean that they're mirroring each other. It's common plus they had a few minutes to talk about before the show began. The reporter is wiggling his big fingers meaning that he is pretty relaxed and confident. David on the other hand is listening very close and keep's his hand's still.
1) 00:00:30 / a false smile. they're two feelings mixed here. He is sad about(or disgusted) about the death of Hubard but he is trying to smile because that's appropriate /
2) 00:00:54 / contempt at the thought that there is controversy surrounding Scientology (bad or good publicity is publicity)/
3) 00:01:01 / he is looking down and to the left meaning Internal Dialog /
4) 00:01:22 / false smile and he is looking down and to the left the same as before /
5) 00:01:45 / a very important moment when we see bought of them. the reporter is very confident. he is holding his hand's in a very upright position(much like people in chard do when talking to someone inferior) while David is holding his hand close to him and very thing much like a personal shield between him and the rest of the world /
6) 00:02:04 / there are a few more expression that i skipped over but this moment is important because David after having a long dialog and remembering something funny about the source of this fact(bad thing about the church) is feeling confident and crosses his fingers. this is a very powerful gesture from someone/
7) 00:02:15 / David left hand is covering by his right hand... it's a manipulator(he is manipulating something with his hands) this is a sign that he is nervous about the fact that there are critical talking about the church/
8) 00:02:26 / it's all about the context. i shouldn't be bias but i can't help it. there isn't a clear sign that will tell you that someone is lying but his expression says it all. the reporter asked if the people are afraid and he is contempt about the people in question... in my opinion he is lying his ass of /
9) 00:02:57 / i have shown this body gesture before. i don't think that he has problem hearing what the reporter is saying, rater it is very important for him everything regarding this subject/
If you want you can point out the one's that i didn't show until the end of the video. There are a lot more facial expression and/or body movement along the video that i didn't point out because they're normal for a conversation.
I'm going to show you how to spot emotions on some politicians. I already analyzed a few videos with president Obama but i just found a little video with Marco Rubio
He is almost 40 so there no chance that he has permanent wrinkles that may trick us in detecting emotions.
1) 00:00:43 / contempt - his smile is only on one part - it's a very brief expression of confidence
2) 00:01:00 - 3 seconds / he is liking his lips like a viper spitting poison. this is in general a sign that he is nervous /
3) 00:01:10 / ya.... he doesn't believe a word he is saying. it's a classic manipulator. /
4) 00:01:12 / disgust, also a sign of contempt... maybe he knows that he is lying /
5) 00:01:22 - 3 seconds / he is very nervous. in course of 3 seconds he swallows a nod in his through and licks his lips twice. he is either lying or is extremely nervous for saying such things/
It's a 26 minutes videos which i will come back to after i will finish the other unfinished posts.
I recently got interested about Project Chanology and i promise to start making videos about scientologist which is very cool because they're such bad lairs despite what you would think.
This is the first video i was asked to view:
and here is the result:
1) 00:00:11 / contempt - asymmetrical smile /
2) 00:00:23 / looking down and to his left - this is the direction of someone eyes as they "talk to themselves". /
Continuing with this video analysis of a Chinese being interview i'm doing a indian. Again i have absolutely no idea what this guy is saying but you will see the same emotions and body language as everybody else.
The video:
1) ~ 00:00:24 / he starts the interview with his hands crossed. in this case it's a comforting gesture he feels safe that way to the upcoming interview /
2) 00:00:40 / looking down and to the right meaning he is experiencing some feelings when talking. a transcript would be nice :) /
3) 00:00:45 / looking up and to the right - visual construction /
4) ~ 00:00:57 / starting being a little bit more happy and confident about what he is saying / * a few seconds later he crosses his fingers and places them on his knees. crossed fingers represent one of the most confident body movement that i know of.
5) 00:01:22 / slight angry - the brows are lowered and drawn together; vertical lines appear between the brows; the lower lid is tense/ *it's not a full expression of anger and i'm not sure that he is really angry but he is feeling something important(it can be that the expression is of concentration)
6) 00:01:32 - 4 seconds / he takes two deep breath of air and blinks rapidly. he isn't confident or it's something very important to him/ * you can't see the first deep breath but if you look at the video it's a few seconds before this scene starts
7) 00:02:11 - 3 seconds / a very good example of micro expressions. he changes from anger to happiness in just a seconds. you have to watch very carefully to see what i'm talking about /
You should have seen it coming. This is what i'm trying to make people learn. It's a video of Mell Gibson taking an interview and at the end he calls the reporter and a**hole. It has some clear indication that he doesn't like what he is being asked. Well you can figure it out just by simply basic deduction but it's nice to see some visual representation of an annoyed person.
This is the video:
1) 00:00:00 - 2 seconds / He slightly brings his face forward. First of all i don't think that there's a problem with his hearing(only in two occasion he does this... in the rest his hearing is fine) and neither with the equipment so this has to be a very important question or interview for him.
2) 00:00:18 - 3 seconds / He rubs his nose which is a classical calming gesture. He is reassuring himself that everything is ok. /
3) 00:00:29 / the same as 1) point... he over emphasize hearing what the interviewer is saying /
4) 00:00:40 / concealed fear expressions - you can see the smile that no problem but it's not a true smile it's hiding a fear expression. you can see the expression in the upper face. the brows are drawn together and raise, the wrinkles on the forehead are in the center. /
5) 00:00:46 / visual remember - eyes pointing on his upper left - he remembering the drinking problem /
6) 00:00:46 - 2-3 seconds / a long scorn - made by his nose - it's a gesture that you make when you don't like something.. similar to disgust /
7) 00:00:53 / he leans forward trying to be in the reported face or trying to be more to his leaved to explain very carefully that the drinking problem happened almost 5 years ago /
8) 00:01:03 - 2 seconds / he takes a coffee cup and crosses his legs; it's a clear sign that he is trying to protect himself from the reporter /
9) 00:01:10 / disgust in his lower face . the lower lip is raised and pushed up to the upper lip /
The last think that he does is drink from his coffee while the report is saying something good about Mell. It's a impolite gesture but you kind of get by know that he isn't taking very good to the inappropriate question asked by the reported. In the conclusion you should of seen it coming. celebrities
I have shown a lot of videos in which I have pointed out this subtle body movement but haven't taken the time to explain what dose it mean. The wikipedia article refers to "an exercise in weight training". For detecting lies this sign represent not knowing something. This is the full body movement: which is a pretty common sign. You probably seen it when you ask somebody a question and he doesn't know the answer
It's a general rule in detecting lies and emotions that if something isn't done right or doesn't seem natural it's probably wrong. Although in this example if you ask somebody a question and he doesn't raise his shoulders as up as he can it doesn't necessarily mean that he isn't truthful. It can just mean that for example while he is answering he kind of remembers the answer. Or he/she isn't exactly sure about the answer but choose to answer that he/she doesn't know because they're is in a hurry.
You always have to take in account what the subject of the inquiry is and the situation. This is a word of warning regarding all of the future tutorials. You shouldn't assume anything base upon one or two observation. You should take into consideration a lot of facts before you can say that somebody is lying. There isn't anything that can replace evidence in telling if somebody is truthful or not.
The shoulder shrugs that i have shown you are partial body movement. They usually occur when the person isn't sure about what he is saying. Here are a few examples from the videos that i have analyzed:
The feeling that i have when I'm doing this is that I'm not comfortable in my own skin. I'm usually well aware of this type of sign's when I'm making them yet most people aren't. I have done a few controlled experiments in which this particular body movement is pretty common. I can't show the videos because the people that i have worked with(usually friend and family) wouldn't be to happy about this. In my experiments i ask the person that i would be interviewing a few question which they can answer truthfully or not. After the interview was over i would go over the question with them and get the sentences that are lies and the one's that are truthful and then watch the videos for sign's of deceit. It's not always a intentional misleading. Sometimes i would ask a difficult question and the first answer wouldn't always be truthful.
