Acting Face to Face: The Actor's Guide to Understanding how Your Face Communicates Emotion for TV and Film (Language of the Face, Band 3) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This is the first edition of Acting Face to Face: The Actor’s Guide to Understanding How Your Face Communicates Emotion for TV and Film. A Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition of this book is now available. There should be a link somewhere on the page.

The first edition was powerful, and some said groundbreaking and I wanted to make sure I kept all of what made it such a success. It’s all still there:

• The science behind why only a small percentage of on-camera actors get the majority of the work, what those actors do differently than the rest, and what you can do to level the playing field.
• Why acting is an art of deception and why deception is the key to truthful acting.
• Why your facial messages may not be expressed the way you intend and how it may be costing you more than the job.

What’s been added in the 2nd Edition?

• Updated “Myths and Misconceptions” chapter.
• What we've learned from mask-wearing and what it means to the on-camera actor.
• Deeper dive into EYE COMMUNICATION - what the eyes can and can’t say.
• 35 new photos to illustrate specificity and subtlety of emotional expression.

But the biggest change has been the addition of 3 brand NEW chapters that include a mini version of my proprietary Emotion Screen Test (EST). There are over 75 pages of new material.

If you don’t already know, the EST is a guided, in-depth self-evaluation of your own facial expressions. It will help you evaluate your emotion creating and revealing strengths and weaknesses. And having that understanding can make you more self-aware, more confident, and ultimately- a better actor.
