A 'how to' book for actors who want to develop a 'can do' attitude
to their profession in the face of rejection and intense
competition. Feeling despondent about the acting profession? Been
out of work for longer than you care to remember? Starting to
resent the injustices of the job and the success of other actors?
If so, An Attitude for Acting will inspire you to break out of the
cycle of despondency and start to view yourself as a creative and
autonomous individual who is valuable and employable. The book
focuses on: * Maintaining a healthy attitude * Dealing with
negative emotions * Keeping productive and motivated * Developing
self-belief and getting the support you need * Turning
discouragement into activity and opportunity * Coping with nerves *
Preparing for auditions * Being included and not feeling left out *
Building a value system that includes trust, responsibility,
flexibility, creativity, adaptability and courage The book, by
theatre director/teacher Andrew Tidmarsh and executive
coach/neuroscientist Dr Tara Swart, contains a series of intensely
'hands-on' exercises - some for practising alone, others for doing
with friends or colleagues. These techniques will enable you to
free yourself from potential states of inertia and hopelessness,
and prevent any feelings of worthlessness becoming a
self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead, you will develop a
self-confident, 'can-do' mentality that will help you shape the
career you want. Whether you've just completed your training and
want to start your career with confidence or you've been acting a
while and are having difficulty planning the next stage, this book
will help you on your path to surviving - and thriving - as an
actor.
