Spectators are more accustomed to seeing a TV presenter in a studio, where dramatic stories are sounded and intense passions. But on September 9, Andrei Danilevich will appear in a new role - in the children's talent show Coolest of all from the Inter TV channel. Telenedelya learned what talents Danielewicz himself can boast of, why he went to the lawyers and which doctor.

Battle with the star Andrew, it was difficult after the ostrosotsialnogo project "Touch Everyone" switch to a children's talent show?.

In terms of television production, I was all clear: there is a format with clear rules and its specifics. Here the main characters are children and their amazing talents. They and us, leading, need to speak before the public on stage. And this is a completely different feeling than on the shooting of "Touching Everyone", where the audience is behind my back and we talk mostly with adults about everyday complex topics. Therefore - yes, from the point of view and emotion, and the format for me is a professional challenge. And at the same time a breath of fresh air, an opportunity to show yourself in a new way.

To be honest, I'm a little worried about what we will eventually get and how the audience will react to the premiere.

What attracted you to the project?.

In addition to what was said earlier, the fact that he is about children, and I love them very much. "Coolest" - a talent show in which children do not have to compete with each other. They, and not me or my co-host Andrey Domansky, are the main characters. In each release of the program, we will show several participants at once, who, thanks to their hobby, could become steeper than others. Some of them in 3-4 years already officially champions and champions. They demonstrate their abilities, we try to set them tasks more difficult, and sometimes we invite their idols to a friendly battle.

We will be happy if this project shows how important it is to give time to the child. Each of them is talented, you just need to help him, give him the opportunity to do what he likes. If you draw parallels with "Touching Everyone", then for me there the most exciting stories have always been those in which it was about children. And thank God that in "Coolest of all" we see happy, happy, talented children, with which parents are engaged.

They are all bright, spontaneous and at the same time very serious, enthusiastic about their sport or hobby. All free time is devoted to some unthinkable occupation. I, as a person, passionate about sports (Andrei is engaged in triathlon. - Prim. red. ), I am amazed at small people who can fold a Rubik's cube for 5-6 hours a day. Or a five-year-old child who knows 80 brands of cars and can tell them all about. Or a girl who in her 3.5 years knows all the countries of the world, their capitals and even can determine what kind of country, by its geographical contour. It's incredible!.

How to deal with pink shoes It is believed that children are more difficult to shoot than adults. How did it feel in your case?.

I can predict the answer of an adult person, because adults think with certain stereotypes, rules, they are hostages of their profession and established relationships. A child is always a surprise effect. It so happened that Domansky and I distributed the "duties" from the very beginning: he was more responsible for the entertainment, and I - for the conversational part. That is, sat with the children on the couch and asked questions about their hobbies, talked with their parents. Or just talking on adult topics, which, in general, and do not relate to the specific entrainment of the child. But it is always interesting - how a five-year or eight-year-old interlocutor talks about relationships, about life values ??and life in general.

There were also funny situations that puzzled us. So, let's say, I ask the girl how she learned to draw. And she answered: "And today I'm in pink shoes, I like them" (laughs). Constantly you need to be alert, because it is not known how the child behaves, at what point he can get talking, switch to something else or even close up. It is necessary to feel very thinly the children. In most cases, it was possible.

There is some personal recipe from Andrei Danilevich - what to do if the child does not go to the contact or talks about pink shoes?.

At these times I asked some completely unrelated hobbies, but interesting questions to me. Let's say: "Listen, do you like that there are so many people in the hall and they applaud you all? You're the first time on television? And what do you do when you're tired? I've been working on television and sometimes I'm very tired. What can I advise? ". The main thing is to involve the child in the dialogue, and then return to his hobby. Sometimes Andrey Andrey Domansky and I asked very adult questions: "Why should you study? ". Or about girls asked. It is very interesting to listen to how little children talk about the relationship of boys and girls, husbands and wives, who should earn in the family, and so on..

Especially memorable girl Zlata (the same one who knows all the countries of the world and the capital). With her, we began to communicate on behalf of a toy horse, so Zlata well, very fond of horses! It looked like this - I was holding a toy and saying: "Zlatochka, the horse is wondering, is it true that you know so much about geography? ". And only then, when I saw that the baby was relaxed, that she was comfortable, she began to communicate without "intermediaries".

What conclusions did they make for themselves from communication with children and their parents?.

I realized that a child should be given the opportunity to choose what he wants to do. Of course, I would like my son Timothy to go in for sports, but ... Already now I see how vividly he reacts to music, how he dances, how he likes piano. And it's not against him to choose music or dancing. Passionate children - happy children. And parents, who are keen on their children, are happy parents.

Tractor? As easy as pie!.

Were there children who were especially surprised? Or, maybe, prompted you to learn something?.

I would not say that thanks to the project I found for myself some kind of hobby. But I was struck to the depths of my soul by the performance of a boy from Belarus dancing in the style of jazz-modern. How artful and plastic! And how to play every emotion! We asked him to play kindness - and he played kindness. Love or sadness? Here is your love and sadness. Two maths, the boy liked the girl from the parallel class - anything can be portrayed. It's just incredible! Talent!.

And you yourself are the steepest of all? In addition to swimming, in which - the pros.

I'm the coolest dad, I think (laughs). However, I do not know how I could demonstrate this, but the truth is - I enjoy my fatherhood. And in the show ... Probably, would show how I can drive a tractor and mow the grass - I can do it very well.

And where did you learn to drive a tractor?.

In the village of my grandmother. This, you could say, was my first car.

Your son year and three months. Educate him on some newfangled techniques, which almost from birth recommend teaching languages, drawing and so on?.

There are no fashion programs. There is a maximum of attention, care and love.

Do not force the development of a child - is this a matter of principle? Some parents are sure that the child should have a carefree childhood. At least until school ... I do not know if it's up to school, but at least up to five years it's definitely not worth overloading it. Sport - will be, this fall, we want to give Timothy to sail, only without special loads, but in pleasure. Languages? Maybe, but from three to four years. I do not want him to know everything in three years. It is better to go with him once more to the sea, take a walk, swim, play enough.

With the advent of the child with his sports interests had to sacrifice?.

Of course, I do not have time to do everything. And sports, and other hobbies at first went into the background. And now, when the son becomes more mature, thanks to the grandmothers and the nurse it turns out to find time for itself. Last year, for example, I almost did not practice, but in this I returned to normal sports mode.

And even once again take part in competitions in triathlon or swimming?.

In July in Kiev participated in the swim in the marathon distance 3,8 km. A little earlier in Vyshgorod - at the Championship of Ukraine on aquatlon. In both starts he won first place in his category and was in the top ten in the overall standings. So the result is satisfied.

Do you have plans for autumn?.

Yes, I registered for the World Triathlon Championship in Rotterdam, which will be held in mid-September. I hope you can go. It all depends on the schedule of filming.

Is it true that TV presenter contracts have a clause according to which they do not have the right to collect more than a certain number of kilograms?.

To be honest, I never bother with my weight. Sport has always been in my life, and I, fortunately, do not know what it is - to get strong. But it is understandable that, within reasonable limits, we commit ourselves to conform to the image - not to cut hair, do not grow a green mohawk or do not gain 20 kilos.

I change all inclusive to the stool and potatoes on the barbecue Timothy - from those children who are always and everywhere with their parents - on a trip, on a visit, at a presentation, in a store? Or do you prefer to take him out of the "comfort zone" as a last resort?.

No, he is always with us everywhere. The boy is very sociable. It turned out, it's interesting to travel with him: he smiles at everyone in the customs and on the plane, he builds eyes and neighbors in front of us, and those who are behind. In the end, everyone is charmed.

How does he surprise you in addition to communicability?.

He has a very conscious, adult look. It's all celebrated. And he is already showing character. If you ask him for something, he will not do it if he does not want to..

You do not regret that you spend the summer at work?.

It's a pity of course. In the summer even on vacation to go with the child failed. Maybe in the fall it will turn out. But this is the specifics of the work, and the family understands this. But I sometimes drop a whole week without filming, when I can escape for two or three days somewhere. I try not to miss this opportunity.

What for you in general rest - to contemplate the sunset from the window of a five-star hotel or change activities, for example, in the village potatoes to dig?.

I am perfectly resting when I go to my native Zhitomir, where we sit with kumovs sitting on stools in the kitchen or arranging gatherings in the backyard of the house. Without pathos, without waiters and catering - in shorts and T-shirts we cook on the grill meat and vegetables. But in a five-star hotel, where the mode of doing nothing, I feel no less comfortable. All can be nurtured, so if there is a possibility, you need to alternate rest in a simple way and rest in a rich way (smiling). By the way, you need to teach your children to this. After all, life is not always five stars.

If it happens with the holiday in autumn, have you already thought about where you will go?.

To sea. Maybe it will be Greece. It is important that the child was interested. Before the birth of Timothy, by the way, I did not rest so passively. Probably the last time in Turkey in all inclusive was in 2004. And then more than ten years he preferred to belong to himself - rent an apartment. You do not even need to stop at the hotel! The main thing is to decide for yourself where to dine and where to go today.

And even better - and it was the most unforgettable vacation! - when three years in a row my friends and I rented a yacht and, under the guidance of an experienced skipper, went on it across the Mediterranean Sea. Every day we went to a new marina, swam where we wanted, and ourselves cooked food - right on the yacht. But this rest is not for small children. Now we have to make a serious amendment to the child, because it is better for him when there are all the amenities.

And the swine, and the reaper, and the lawyer. So, preparing a meal on a yacht is not a problem for you. What else can you do? Are you a good-looking guy?.

Without extra modesty, I will answer: yes! (Laughs). ) Indeed, I can do everything in the house, more - I like to do. I grew up in a family where my father is a jack-of-all-trades master. Up to the fact that he himself made cabinets and laid parquet. We looked at him and also tried to deal with all our problems on our own - both in the house and grandmother's garden: they mowed and dug, and planted, and built. In general, I know how much pud salt. Therefore, if you need to screw up the shelves at home, I'll fix something-I'll love it! I'm not afraid of work ... And if I also praise, then I will definitely do everything in the world (laughs).

Last year, you decided to get a second higher education - entered the law faculty of the Institute of Postgraduate Education KNU. Taras Shevchenko. How did this happen and why this faculty?.

I have long wanted to get a second higher education and at some point decided: I will do so, no - so no. Why jurisprudence? At least, because in our country legal education will not hurt anyone. And as a maximum - suddenly I want to go to politics someday? (Laughs). ) Then this science is useful! In general, it is important for me to constantly take up the brains of something new. Not because there is a lot of free time, but in order not to stop in development.

How did the reception committee meet you? There were no questions like: "Oh, what are you doing here? ".

Were surprised. They asked: "Are you going to study with us? ". Answered: "I hope that I will. If I do it ». It can not be said that recognition helped. But definitely not prevented.

How do you hand over the session? Write off?.

Well, while I had only one. I responsibly prepared. At the exam, by the way, I got a ticket with questions about the functions, composition and principles of the Cabinet of Ministers - and I had an answer due to my experience in working with information programs.

"Responsibly prepare" - this is probably at night?.

Well, it is direct that all the while long to cram - that is not present. Although sometimes it was necessary to rush straight from the filming to the Institute and on the way to read something. Or already right on the exam.

Do the teachers meet you? You can complain: "Oh, I had such a heavy shooting ..." - and immediately the offset appears?.

I am very grateful to the teaching staff of the Institute of Post-Graduate Education and its leadership: they know how to be both demanding and understanding. For example, when I had a shooting on the day of the exam, I absolutely could not appear at the institute. A little later I went to the dean's office, explained why I could not take the item with the group, and I took an examination on another day. Has handed over!.

Without five minutes of a traumatologist At the beginning of your television career, you were engaged in voice acting on TV channels. And someone from the heroes of the big cinema speaks your voice?.

In the films that were voiced for theaters, there were only secondary roles. The latter - "Real boars", about bikers. But in most cases it was necessary to work on television series, including - over Latin American soap operas. They usually do not have superstars, you voice several characters at once.

It was an interesting practice. Work in a voice echoed with my radiant experience. Plus met many actors. For me, it was very honorable to work with them and learn, learn and study again. Especially since the selection was very strict. My teacher Stanislav Boleslavovich Chernilevsky, not all professional actors allowed to voice. I was seriously engaged in him, for which he is immensely grateful! I remember when asked to try as a TV presenter, I even doubted for a while: go to the frame or continue to work behind the scenes, since I like to work on voice acting.

Which characters to play out with the voice was the most difficult?.

Children - when I had to speak for small boys in a thin voice.

By the way, you shared that you would like to do acting skills. Have you moved forward in this direction?.

Little. I have not finished my courses yet, although I'm friends with actors, I love cinema, I visit cinema and theater - this is something that has always been interesting for me. But recently passed a casting in one of the series for the TV channel "Inter" - I was approved for the role of a trauma doctor. Why not? I'm interested from a professional point of view!.
