Enjoy acting! The ABWAG-Man has come to your rescue with a web site that is like an acting manual using a database structure to communicate the feel, think, do technique, along with a resource of plenty of useful tips, helpful definitions and related terms of acting. It's all free to study and no sign-in is required. Everything you need to know about Acting Without Agony: An Alternative to the Method is here
First principle: be audible. 80% feeling, 20% technique and devices. Acting can not be absorbed, you have to do it. Acting is a dream. Acting is the work of the imagination. Actor can't pretend things, it has to be emotional experience. Actor should never make yourself comfortable crossing your legs etc. All good acting must look like it was never rehearsed at all. All work has to be hidden. Act with your whole person. Art of acting is to move the audience not the actor. Bigger emotions must be more relaxed. Bully look for coward. Bury all the work, conceal work. Can't have people play outside own imaging. Can't play effect the scene has to have on audience. Can't think the story, can't think dialogue. Character can be out of control, actor has to be in control. Choice best emotion of scene. Clarity is most important, less acting. Make the character understood and attractive. Coiled snake is more frightening than one sprung. Constantly tease audience, what is coming next it's all foreplay, when you get to the f***ing it's over. Conversation is not a scene. Do it for the one man who knows. Doing what to whom? Don't act dangerous. Don't be awed by playwright. Don't be over swayed by emotion. Don't be too structure, find a way to bury wheel. Don't cry to get audience to cry. Don't do complete horror. Don't do the opposite to humanity. Don't do the same things over from other parts, every project is new. Don't do things twice, (if she knells before him once) second time isn't dramatic. Don't do two things at once. Don't duplicate, do what caused it. Don't ever put hands in pocket only to pull gun or play with yourself (sic).
