Acting and Filmmaking
A truly great
acting book can grace an acotr's library for a long, long time, and the information
contained within can shape an acting career forever. Ditto for great books
on screenwriting and filmmaking, which I don't recommend because I subscribe
to the "paint by numbers" theory of screenwriting, but because
I think they often help to break down structure and story into understandable
pieces of information, which once learned, free the writer to be more creative.
Here are my suggestions of the best acting and performing related books,
filmmaking books, and screenwriting books, from someone who is an actor,
a writer & while not a filmmaker herself, friends with quite a few who have
also chimed in with their two cents worth about which filmmaking books are
really helpful! You can search on the Caryn.com
Book Search page for other titles not specifically mentioned on
this site. Enjoy!
