"It will not disappoint . . ." —Ian McKellen, from the ForewordAn Authoritative Training Manual for Film Actors and Teachers “In today's entertainment industry of buff bodies and beautiful faces, it's easy to think that a couple of sit-ups and high cheek bones can create a movie legend,” writes film veteran Cathy Haase. However, she adds, what the actor really must have are “technique, craft, and a depth of self-knowledge.” In Acting for Film, Second Edition, Haase shows actors how to develop all of these, sharing her secrets (developed through years of on-camera work) for creating characters who come alive and who touch the souls of the audience. Readers will learn how to apply theatrical training to film acting and hone a personal approach to rendering a character. Acting for Film, Second Edition, is an essential guide for aspiring performers, acting teachers, and anyone interested in gaining a greater understanding of the craft. This new edition includes: Advice on dealing with new technology including CGI and motion captureConcentration and relaxation exercises that will enhance facial expressivenessExploration of sense memory techniques for on-camera workAnimal exercises and their usagesTips for maintaining proper eye focus in front of the camera and conveying the “beats” of a scene, even in the shortest takes For any performer who intends to make a living in front of the camera, Acting for Film, Second Edition, is the most authoritative resource! With Haase’s experience and advice in their pocket, readers will be prepared to land the film role they’ve been dreaming of.
The sleek design and easy navigation are visually pleasing and user-friendly. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.

The narrator's voice in some audiobooks is so soothing, it's like a spa for the ears. Automatic metadata extraction is a time-saver. My library is finally well-organized. The subtle background music at key moments enhanced the experience without being distracting. More audiobooks should use this technique when appropriate!
