This book explores the concepts surrounding cinematic acting—its motivations, components, sources, techniques, effects, and transformations. It also examines acting’s relationship with the camera, directing, screenwriting, editing, and other artistic elements, as well as the many facets that define performance. The author views the actor as being in a perpetual search for the other… for a new self to become. With this poetic and profound vision, Amin Saleh guides us chapter by chapter through a journey into acting, the actor, and the mysteries and revelations that surround them.
