An Actor's Process: Tips, tools & technique for performance & creating original work

An Actor’s Process is ideal for both beginning actors and seasoned professionals. The tips and exercises are simple, direct and useful. They are easy to apply and designed to be used in acting class, rehearsals and in performance. The tools of an actor include: A strong voice and good clear speech. Healthy mind and body. Ability to analyze a script correctly. Competence to memorize lines verbatim. Skill to work off other actors. Confidence to act on your impulses. Ability to use common sense. I believe a talented actor is someone who spends a long period of time learning and developing their craft. Every great actor knows, regardless of their natural talent, that you still must do the work to understand the tools needed to create characters. By developing your craft and honing your skills, you will more fully understand your work, grow into a more self actualized artist, and discover that you too have something to say about the art of acting. Process is literally whatever you do to create your art. It’s action. It’s your physical and mental practice to manifest work. A good creative process brings the invisible world of your dreams into reality. It’s the way you turn your imagination into doable actions and concrete events.
