Synopsis
In the early twentieth century, Russian director Constantin Stanislavsky transformed the acting world with a series of techniques he called ?method acting.' By discovering the inner life of a character, actors learned to bring emotional realism to their roles as never before. In Getting Into Character, Collins takes seven of the most eye-opening techniques of the Stanislavsky method and adapts them to the art of writing fiction. Like actors, writers learn how to personalise characters, determine their action objectives in a scene, write subtexted dialogue and much more. Collins concludes each chapter with excerpts from both a familiar classic and a modern bestseller to illustrate how top-notch authors'from Jane Austen to Steve Martini'have used these same techniques to great effect., A unique guide for writers of all levels that applies the lessons of the Stanislavsky technique, i.e. , Method Acting, to the art of writing fiction. Drawing on examples from classic novels and contemporary fiction, Collins shows how writers can adopt the same seven skills that actors use to create believable characters on stage., Proven techniques for creating vivid, believable characters Want to bring characters to life on the page as vividly as fine actors do on the stage or screen? Getting into Character will give you a whole new way of thinking about your writing. Drawing on the Method acting theory that theater professionals have used for decades, this in-depth guide explains seven characterization techniques and adapts them for the novelist s use. In this unique and practical book, you ll discover concepts that will help you understand and communicate the behavior, motivation, and psychology of every fictional character you create. Examples from classic and contemporary novels show you how these techniques have been used to dazzling effect by Jane Austen, Mark Twain, Steve Martini, Anne Rivers Siddons, and others. These simple yet highly effective techniques will help you: Create characters whose distinctive traits become plot components Determine each character s specific objectives and motivations Write natural-sounding dialogue rich in meaning Endow your characters with three-dimensional emotional lives Use character to bring action sequences to exuberant life Write convincingly about any character facing any circumstance, Proven techniques for creating vivid, believable characters Want to bring characters to life on the page as vividly as fine actors do on the stage or screen?
