Acting Characters

Acting Characters is an introductory book for students and aspiring actors to help demystify the process of acting, by breaking the process down into twenty manageable steps.

Paul Elsam's Acting Characters is an introductory handbook for the aspiring actor, compiled of twenty steps grouped into six sections to help create, present and sustain a believable character in most circumstances. Fundamentally practical, the book avoids the heavy discussion of theory that often accompanies books on the subject, looking instead at the essentials of how to use different voices and body language to convey character.
