In The Power of the Actor, a Los Angeles
Times bestseller, premier acting teacher and coach Ivana
Chubbuck reveals her cutting-edge technique, which has
launched some of the most successful acting careers in
Hollywood. The first book from the instructor who
has taught Charlize Theron, Brad Pitt, Elisabeth Shue,
Djimon Hounsou, and Halle Berry, The Power of the
Actor guides you to dynamic and effective results. For
many of today's major talents, the Chubbuck Technique is the
leading edge of acting for the twenty-first century. Ivana
Chubbuck has developed a curriculum that takes the theories
of the acting masters, such as Stanislavski, Meisner, and
Hagen, to the next step by utilizing inner pain and
emotions, not as an end in itself, but rather as a way to
drive and win a goal. In addition to the powerful
twelve-step process, the book takes well-known scripts, both
classic and contemporary, and demonstrates how to precisely
apply Chubbuck's script- analysis process. The Power of
the Actor is filled with fascinating and inspiring
behind-the-scenes accounts of how noted actors have mastered
their craft and have accomplished success in such a
difficult and competitive field.
