The expressive body

physical characterization for the actor

Edición de la obra The expressive body

The Expressive Body is the first practical handbook on actor training that specifically addresses physical characterization as a fundamental element of the actor's craft. David Alberts provides unique insights into the process of physical characterization and character interaction including how: intentional and unintentional movements affect a performance, gestures inform characterization, to use movement to define character interaction and enhance performance, and to strengthen effective nonverbal behavior.
