The past four years, I have breathed, slept, eaten, thought and immersed myself in all thing pertaining to theatre. This is where I discovered to truly work in a team, where I could be without fear of being something I am not, and where I have found peace in the maddening swirl of day to day life, ironic in the fact that theatre is a hectic world. This world is where I have made my best friends and found people I know I can count on and that I insist can depend on me. If I have learned one thing from my experiences in theatre, it is to strive and achieve

The outstanding component of acting is that it is an aspect that calls for a wide variety of skills. A single person to form a totally different personality from that possessed by the acting person must synchronize these skills. Some of the most common skills necessary for an actor are vocal projection, physical expressiveness, speech clarity, well-developed imagination, emotional facility drama interpretive ability. Also not to forget mentioning other important capabilities that an actor must have are; utilization of accents, body languages, dialects, improvisation, mimicry, emulation, stage combat and observation (Jurkowski and Francis 44). Another fascinating fact about acting is that it combines both talent and special training programs. Due to this fact it offers opportunities to any person who has an interest in becoming a theatre performer. The training has as well availed a chance for the emergence of professional actors who never seize from learning new elements from now and then. These people are among those who undergo training in various sub-disciplines making them diverse and multifunctional. An actor can be good at singing, dancing, partner work, scene work among others. Bundling all these qualities into one single person is a fascinating element which makes them fit for any duty that might be availed to them. Therefore acting as

Yet lee also is  criticise for his rigid methods have ruined an entire generation of performers. Strasberg  and Harold Clurman were the co founders of the well known  Group theatre in 1931 which was hailed as “America’s first true theatrical collective”. In 1951 Lee Strasberg  became director of the non-profit Actors Studio, In New York City, which it well know to be the “ nation's most prestigious acting school”. Soon later he found the Lee Strasberg theatre and Film Institute in New York and in Hollywood to teach the work he pioneered. With all of his accomplishments  he was named “Chief” of the Method Acting” in the theatre world.

An actor must develop a full sense of his own identity. This means that the actor is not limited to their usual character, he wants to dig himself out of character within the subconscious, even though he himself does not recognize and repulse this character. Perhaps this character is deep inside the dark side of the actor; perhaps it only appears when actors stay with their family; perhaps this character is produced in daily life by the subtle influence of others arising. Whether the characters suit actor's behavior in daily life or not, these character can be developed to expand the range of actors. Moreover, reading biographies and histories and putting themselves in roles who are described in books promote the growth of actor

When she participated in the play, she acted out her own interpretation of the characters. Her classmates did as

In this essay , I’m going to introduce the sessions that helped me improve , clarify my comprehension of the craft of acting. I’m also gonna Include my understanding of what an actor needs from a script; how an actor uses backstory to inform the present and the techniques around the revelation of backstory and motivation,. What is my interaction with actors in preparing a script, and in on-set procedure? how i go about analysing an actor’s performance and how do I get the best out of it in terms of technique and impact both on set and in the edit; a reflection of my personal experience of being in front of the camera and how you grappled with the demands of the profession.

I wonder what did the author get these ideas what influences her to write a book and then

The book is referred to as intent to live because most of the great actors who perform the acting seem not to be acting but living. This is depicted on how they portray their act; very real from the eyes of the audience. Larry moss has described these instances in this book on how the actors can achieve this level of acting by sharing out the techniques he has developed for over thirty years. As per Larry Moss description, the techniques highlighted can help actors in setting their imagination, emotions and behaviors on fire. These shows how hard work of preparation is helpful in performances that will yield good fruits. This great

An Actor Prepares is quite an undertaking. Stanislavski strives to communicate to his audience the highly theoretical and, therefore, obtuse concepts of acting. Theoretical concepts are many things, not the least of which is accessible to a broad audience. Stanislavski attempts to remedy this dilemma by formatting his book as a fictional class with fictional characters who explore and learn about the theoretical concepts that he possets are essential to truthful art. This classroom format makes the book particularly accessible for acting students who can recognize themselves in the various students of the book as well as the trials, tribulations, and eventual successes that these fictional students experience along the way. This fictional classroom follows a similar progression to our own Acting 101 class because like Stanislavski’s imagined students, we have begun with the most elementary, sophomoric aspects of acting and built up from there. Many of the exercises that the students in An Actor Prepares

Since a very young age, I have been highly invested in theater-a world that revolves around understanding people and the society from which they stem. To succeed in acting, one must have a grasp on philosophy, sociology, different religions, and a wide variety of cultures, so that they may portray the human experience in the most honest way possible, however brutal that might be. History, literature, music and art all come together to tell beautiful stories in theater and I wish to be able to interpret and execute these works of art in the best way possible. When preparing for a role Uta Hagen's nine questions are often one of the most essential pieces of character work an actor relies on. The first of these nine questions is “Who am I?”,

Rehearsals are where I define who the character is. Through repetition, the character’s movements and physiological responses are defined. By the time the performance comes around, everything the character does, including parts of the physicality not under conscious control, are parts of muscle memory.

The recent is an outgrowth of the American theater scene, especially in New York, in the 1930s and 40s. Strategy acting showed up when performers and chiefs like Elia Kazan, Robert Lewis, Lee Strasberg, first in the Gathering Theater and later in the On-screen characters Studio, connected the Passionate Memory procedure from Stanislavski's framework. This strategy advanced in American theaters in light of the fact that it was taught to Strasberg at the American Research facility Theater in the 1920s to the specific mental needs of the American on-screen character of their time. It has been recommended that Strasberg had admittance around then just to A Performer Plans and that on the off chance that he had maybe held up until he had likewise perused Building A Character, which was distributed much later, then he may not have grown such a great 'technique'. Other American on-screen characters, notwithstanding, did not take after Strasberg's strategy, as Stella Adler who went by and was taught by Stanislavski

She states, “I had to find a way to make sure that my creativity survived its own success. And I did, in the end, find that inspiration, but I found it in the most unlikely and unexpected place. I found it in lessons that I had learned earlier in life about how creativity can survive its own

The strengths and weaknesses of a committed actor can be paradoxical. For this area I chose to consult with an acting colleague of 17 years. I thought it was necessary to have an objective perspective to honestly describe what has been observed from someone that knows me, personally. The following paragraph from a close friend and veteran actor explains this quandary in her description of me.
