Syllabus
  • The subject serves as support for the subject Acting I in the studio of musical acting. In the spirit of Stanislavsky's division of elementary acting into internal and external perception, students are guided here to learn the rules of internal elementary acting. These are, among others: stage attention, imagination, given circumstances, relationship transformation, bodily sensations. Taking into account the specialization of the given studio, a feeling for the musical component supporting the creation and work with emotions is also developed here. An integral part of the work is the own analysis, during which the students gain experience from an external perspective on the given issue.
