Building Images : Part 3, Five Approaches to Acting Series

Building Images, Part Three in the Five Approaches to Acting Series by David Kaplan is the third part in the Five Approaches to Acting Series. By popular demand of instructors and students alike, all five of David Kaplan's approaches to acting have been unbundled into separate acting textbooks to allow instructors to pick and choose the approaches that best fit their methodology of teaching acting. The source of an actor's imagery may be different, but the techniques for applying them in rehearsal and performance are remarkably similar. Building Images, Part Three includes practical techniques for an actor to build imagery ? external and internal ? in rehearsal. Building Images, Part Three offers strategies for text analysis based on imagery, and offers strategies for maintaining and deepening imagery in performance. Building Images, Part Three gives examples in film and from the history of acting. It separates ?the Method? from Stanislavsky's System and explains why an actor would want to use one, or neither.All five of David Kaplan's approaches to acting are available together with an additional part that deals with comparing, choosing and combing the different approaches in his The Collected Series: Five Approaches to Acting. This is an excellent acting textbook that deals with theory and practice for both beginning and seasoned actors.Kaplan, David is the author of 'Building Images : Part 3, Five Approaches to Acting Series', published 2007 under ISBN 9781601821836 and ISBN 1601821832.
