Inside out

like using a programming framework

Express the key points - let the framework handle the details

Manipulate the emotional life - the body will handle a lot of the details

- - -

-

An Actor Prepares

- -

For further reading

- - -
- - -
-

Lee Strasberg

- -

Moscow Art Theatre visited the US in 1923

- -

Strasberg == Mind Blown

- -

Dropped out of school and went to study with the Russians

- - -
- - -
-

The Group Theatre

- -

New York - 1931

- -

Founded by Lee Strassberg, Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford

- -

Not the same as the Group Theatre in London

- -

Believed in Leaderless Operation and Collaborative Work

- - -
- - -
-

Sound familiar?

-
- - -
-

The Method

- -

Strasberg took Stanislavski's system and made a training system

- -

You've probably heard of it

- -

Marlon Brando, Heath Ledger, Philip Seymor Hoffman, Robert DeNiro, Daniel Day-Lewis, Christian Bale, Al Pacino

- - -
- - -
-

Big differences from Stanislavski

- -

Emotional Memory becomes Affective Memory

- -

Substitution - What would make me, the actor, behave in the way the character does

- - -
- - -
-

So I was at this bar ...

-
- - -
-

Clear danger, right?

- -

Notice that Heath Ledger and Philip Seymour Hoffman were in the list

- -

Everyone other than Strasberg walked away from pure-emotional immersion

- - -
- - -
-

Stanford Meisner

- -

Split from Strasberg - thought emotional memory caused actors to focus on themselves and not the character

- -

Concentration on the parter instead

- -

live truthfully under imaginary circumstances

- -
- - -
-

Stella Adler

- -

Broke with Strasberg after studying with Stanislavski

- -

Emotion should come from imagination based on given circumstance

- - -
- - -
-

Uta Hagen

- -

Another split

- -

Basic Object Exercises

- -

Start by doing mundane things in front of people

- - -
- - -
-

What the heck does this have to do with OpenStack?

-
- - -
-

All of these people shared a purpose

- -

To create truth in realistic acting

- - -
- - -
-

All of these people both shared approaches and diverged substantially

- -

"What would I do if I were in this circumstance"

- -

"What would motivate me, the actor, to behave in the way the character does?"

- - -
- - -
-

Tadashi Suzuki

-
- - -
-

The Feet

- -

connection to the ground

-

outside in

-

Truth from Physicality, not from Psychological realism

-
- - -
-

The Trojan Women

- -

Drew from Noh, Kabuki and Shingeki tranditions

- -

Produce a thing that is "true" to a modern Japanese sensibility

- -

Training arose from the need to train replacement actors for the show

- - -
- - -
-

SITI Company

- -

Suzuki collaborated with Anne Bogart

- -

Added Anne Bogart's Viewpoints to Suzuki's techniques

- - -
- - -
-

P3

- -

Robyn Hunt and Steve Pearson studied for 12 year in Japan with Suzuki

- -

Moved back to US to teach the techniques

- -

Added Shogo Ohta's slow-tempo techniques

- - -
- - -
-

Frank

- -

Here in Brisbane

- -

Studied with Suzuki - Added Australian content and form

- -

Exercies to Nick Cave instead of Japanese Flute

- -
- - -
-

The training is a tool

- -

An actor might study all of them

-

Each technique can be useful for different things

- - -
- -
-

Shakespeare

-

Each of these directors has applied their techniques to Shakespeare

-
- -
-

They're all useful tools for different hings

-
- - -
-

Why all this talk about acting techniques?

-
- - -
-

Four takeaways from the actors

-

Know what problem they're trying to solve

-

Develop techniques to solve the problem

-

Don't confuse technique with results

-

Be willing to adapt based on new data

-
- - -
-

The problem

-

Are we chasing psycological realism?

-

Are we chasing physical truth?

-
- - -
-

The problem for us

-

Are we making a toolkit for people to use to build clouds?

-

Are we making a cloud that can be deployed in multiple places?

-

Are we providing computers?

-
- -
-

What I want

-
- -
-

OpenStack should provide computers and networks that work

-
- -
-

OpenStack should not chase 12-factor apps

-
- -
-

OpenStack should provide a happy home for app frameworks

-
- -
-

OpenStack should, by default, give me a directly routable IP

-
- -
-

Thank you!
