Also, a few years back I bought Ekman's Subtle-Expression training tool and his Micro-Expression training tool. They are designed to teach you how to recognize both subtle (small movements) and micro (quick movements) expressions. I think they're the same thing as what he has now, only in web-based form. If you're willing to kick out the dough, definitely check them out. Also, there is one page in Scott McCloud's book Making Comics that is priceless because it shows you emotions in different intensities, as well as how the basic emotions combine to form more complex emotions. Another resource to use is Gary Faigan's book The Artist's Guide to Facial Expression, which actually informs Scott McCloud's work. You have to be better at reading than they are at faking.

Ekman taught himself to move all however many muscles in his face at-will. This means that he can literally express any emotion (and emotional combinations too complex for us rookies) he wants. Not that i'm attempting to manipulate them, but I'm taking a few minutes a day to close my eyes and change my facial expressions so that i can FEEL what they're displaying from the inside. This will give me a better sense both of my own emotions as well as what other people can read off of me. i am also spending some time changing my facial expressions by watching them in the mirror. I'm doing both of these things to be better able to read other people's overt and subtle expressions as well as get a sense of the physical tension in their face necessary to produce a particular expression. It's one thing to be able to label an emotion, and another to be able to experience it. micro-expressions can be manipulated.

Well trained actors have an immense amount of physical and facial control, and you better believe that the people picked for the roles in this are getting/have gotten a whole new level of training. If you're going to practice on television, watch talk shows. If you have DVR, put the shows in slow-motion so you can see the subtle changes in their facial expressions as they hear news, other opinions etc. The difficult thing about watching talk shows (springer and crossfire) is the frequent camera angle switches, but putting it in slow motion compensates for that.
