Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Consciousness Training for Actors: Meditation Techniques for the Performing Artist explores theories and techniques for deepening the individual actor’s capacity to concentrate and focus attention. Going well beyond the common exercises found in actor training programs, these practices utilize consciousness expanding "technologies" derived from both Eastern and Western traditions of meditation and mindfulness training as well as more recent discoveries from the fields of psychology and neuroscience. This book reviews the scientific literature of consciousness studies and mindfulness research to discover techniques for focusing attention, expanding self-awareness, and increasing levels of mental concentration; all foundational skills of the performing artist in any medium.

Download or read book Personal Growth Through Adventure written by David Hopkins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1994. Hopkins and Putnam hold a questioning and healthily sceptical attitude towards the theory and practice of adventure education, something they claim has received insufficient reflection by practitioners on the nature of the process of adventure education. This title outlines their claims that a clear and simple exposition of principles and, consequently, practice has not been well enough informed. Written to stimulate debate, the critical stance that prompted the authors' way of thinking, and so ultimately the book, has a great deal to do with the pervading attitudes at the Outward Bound schools.

Book excerpt: In "Myths and Facts about Acting," we delve into the world of acting and debunk common misconceptions surrounding this art form. From the belief that actors are born with natural talent to the notion that acting is all about pretending, this book sets out to separate fact from fiction. By exploring the various techniques, training methods, and skills required for acting, we aim to provide aspiring actors and curious readers with a comprehensive understanding of the craft. This book challenges the myth that acting is an easy profession. We explore the rigorous training and dedication required to become a successful actor, shedding light on the hard work and perseverance that goes into honing one's craft. Through interviews with experienced actors, we uncover the realities of the industry, offering valuable insights and advice for those considering a career in acting. "Myths and Facts about Acting" also addresses common misconceptions about the emotional and psychological aspects of acting. We explore the idea that actors must always draw from personal experiences to portray characters authentically, and we provide alternative approaches to emotional connection and character development. By debunking these myths, we hope to inspire actors to explore new techniques and expand their range, ultimately enhancing their performances on stage and screen.

Download or read book Music and Sound in European Theatre written by David Roesner and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-29 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for a research volume on European theatre music and sound is almost self-evident. Musical and sonic practices have been an integral part of theatre ever since the artform was first established 2,500 years ago: not just in subsequent genres that are explicitly driven by music, such as opera, operetta, ballet, or musical theatre, but in all kinds of theatrical forms and conventions. Conversely, academic recognition of the role of theatre music, its aesthetics, creative processes, authorships, traditions, and innovations is still insufficient. This volume unites experts from different disciplines and backgrounds to make a significant contribution to the much-needed discourse on theatre music. The term itself is a shapeshifter that signifies different phenomena at different times: the book thus deliberately casts a wide net to explore both the highly contextual terminologies and the many ways in which different times and cultures understand ‘theatre music’. By treating theatre music as a practice, focusing on its role in creating and watching performances, the book appeals to a wide range of readerships: researchers and students of all levels, journalists, audiences, and practitioners. It will be useful to universities and conservatoires alike and relevant for many disciplines in the humanities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection critiques, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the growing body of EU children’s rights activities in the light of broader political, economic and legal processes. Specifically, it interrogates whether EU intervention effectively responds to what are perceived as violations of children’s rights and the extent to which EU efforts to uphold children’s rights complement and reinforce parallel national and international pursuits. Moreover, it scrutinises the compatibility of EU children’s rights measures with the principles and provisions enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).
