Acting techniques

This integrated voice training workbook focuses on voice and speech through the lens of major acting and movement practices, and is ideal for actors in training, directors and any creative seeking to train their spoken voice. Acting methodologies covered include those developed by Michael Chekhov, Sanford Meisner and Konstantin Stanislavsky, and movement practices that include Rudolf von Laban’s, Viewpoints and the Suzuki method.

Exploring vocal technique via these methods, we come to understand the opportunities they offer – and profound effects they can have on – the voice.

With actors working harder than ever across a huge variety of media, Voice Training Through Acting and Movement captures the contemporary actor’s current working reality, offering support for stage and screen.

Featuring exercises for the actor, tips for teachers and online video resources, this book offers a focused and integrated outcome-oriented training of vocal techniques through acting and movement.
