Editorial Reviews
Product Description
How does an actor create a subtle, believable performance without rehearsal and preparation time, with little or no direction and be consistent while matching physical, subtextual and emotional choices through twenty takes and five different camera angles? As an actor and teacher for twenty five years, Thomas Babson has been doing and teaching others how to do just that in his own LA Film Actor's lab and with the Screen Actors Guild conservatory throughout the country. With countless stage productions as both actor and director, and over 200 film, television, and commercial projects (including recurring roles in Paper Chase, St. Elsewhere, Hill St. Blues, General Hospital, and an 11-year role on Cheers) to his credit, author Tom Babson creates a specific, efficient way of making the transition from stage to screen.
