Actor Movement: Expression of the Physical Being is a textbook and
video resource for the working actor, the student and all those who
lead and witness movement for the actor, including movement tutors,
movement directors and directors. Great actors are not simply great
interpreters of text; they are also great interpreters of movement;
able to 'embody' all aspects of a character's life, with body and
imagination as their instruments. In their work they are expected
to become many bodies, all behaving differently from their own.
Actors have to construct, inhabit and offer each character's body,
with its multiplicity of known and unknown physical expression.
Featuring: Over 155 exercises Four full actor movement processes
for creating character Over 20 illustrations and images
Complementary online footage supporting 26 of the practical
elements Inspiring confidence in the actor to make fully owned
physical choices and develop a love of movement, this essential new
textbook is ideal for those actors seeking to give to their
movement all the complexity and range possible for great acting.
Breath in Action looks at the significance of breath to human life
- not just the simple fact that if we stop breathing, we die, but
also the more subtle ways in which our breath interacts with our
voice and our being. Written by experts in vocal and holistic
practice, the book is divided into four sections: Breath and the
Body; Breath and the Mind; Breath and Holistic Practice; Breath and
Performance. It offers the latest theories from a variety of
disciplines on how we can be taught to breathe better so as to
communicate better, act or sing better, feel better, live better.
Combining theory with practice, many of the chapters also offer
clearly laid out breathing exercises and techniques.
Interdisciplinary in its focus, Breath in Action adds to specialist
knowledge in the performance field, whilst also offering
enlightening information for those interested in therapeutic and
healing processes, movement, and voice and speech sciences.
