Assuming that the reader has a basic level of training and/or practice, Gutekunst and Gillett offer a step-by-step guide for integrating voice into acting. Seventeen chapters are divided into
four parts: laying the foundations; the essential vocal six--and integrating acting into voice; integrating voice into the organic acting process; integrating voice in rehearsal and
performance--putting it all together. Part one looks at the brain vis-á-vis the creative process, and the disconnection and integration of voice in the acting process. Part two explores
essential vocal elements and how to integrate acting. Part three discusses the Stanislavski approach and how to integrate voice. Part four pulls everything together by working on a text in
rehearsal and performance. The book is aimed at professional actors, student actors, voice teachers, acting teachers, and directors. There is a list of illustrations, selected bibliography,
about the authors, and permissions. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
