Elements of the technique of the art of acting and their training.
Elements of the technique of the art of acting: attention, partner contact, imagination, emotional memory, physical relaxation and others. All these elements are organically possessed by human nature. In life they exist in a joint system. Their research and training also take place in a complex way in the classes of the Art of Acting. One of the peculiarities of the creative process is that all the elements of activities characteristic of human nature are subjected to a specific training, i.e., they are developed deliberately.

It is important that exercises should initiate the students’ into creative processes, train their imagination and an ability to believe the given conditions. For example, the exercises of physical relaxation – if I were a melting snow figure or if I were a burning candle.

| -
The students develop their stage attention and an ability to evaluate organically the object of their attention in the exercises. The evaluation includes the development of emotional relations with the object of attention which become apparent in a specific activity.

The most different types of contact are mastered in the exercises to feel the contact partner. A signal is given by both touching physically (with one’s hand) and eyes and sound thus achieving the desirable result from the partner. For example, the blind and his/her companion. The united system of training with its tasks arranged in a certain sequence prepares the students for the next stage of studies: studies-improvisations in pairs and groups.

Studies-improvisations.
Themes of studies:
1. Studies of the organic silence.
-
Studies with the minimum application of the text.
-
Animal studies.
-
Studies of revived objects.
-
Studies of life observations.
-
Studies on the theme of paintings.
When working with studies it is essential to reach an understanding about a logical, organic activity towards the achievement of one’s goals by searching answers to the following questions – What do I want to achieve? Why do I want it? (psychological substantiation) How can I achieve it? (means for the implementation of the task). The essence of the conflict of the study has to be identified precisely. The conflict becomes the basis of the process of the study.
The students train one of the most essential elements of the art of acting in the studies – an active influence on the partner and precise evaluation of his/her activity.
Thus the study becomes an original improvisation, it is a fight where results may not be foreseen beforehand. The one who can truly subdue one’s partner to one’s will wins this struggle. The students acquire an understanding about the true process of drama activities.
When acting under the given conditions close attention is paid to the students’ psychophysical feel and physical activities as logical expressions of their inner activity.
An improvised text is used in the studies creating an understanding about the organic creation process of the spoken word, the compliance of the text with the activity and its clearness of purpose.
Thus the students become prepared for the next stage of studies: the work at drama and the author’s text.
