Have you been working as an actor, but want to refine your craft and take your performance to the next level? Or do you want to transition from stage to screen acting and would like to better understand the skills required?
In this essential book for actors, Amanda Brennan offers a specifically psychophysical approach to screen acting, which provides an understanding of the body as the springboard for creative exploration. Starting with understanding your own instrument, you will learn how to prepare and tune the body for creative work. This is followed by strategies for the refinement of craft, including exercises on voice, movement, character development and rehearsal processes for screen.
Experienced actors, directors, casting directors and industry professionals, such as Asa Butterfield (The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, Hugo, Sex Education), Noah Jupe (Honey Boy, The Quiet Place,The UnDoing), Janis Pugh (Chuck Chuck Baby) and James Kent (Testament of Youth, The Aftermath) and Rebecca Lloyd offer their comments and share invaluable experiences throughout the book.
