Description

My Character Wouldn't Do That: Acting, Cognitive Science and the Optimal Performance Brain by Donna Soto-Morettini explores a fundamental challenge in acting: self-consciousness. This approach challenges traditional methods of acting by examining how they can create a 'mind space' that fosters self-awareness.

The book delves into contemporary cognitive sciences to reframe key aspects of acting, including character development, memory, imagination, and decision-making. By applying the latest research on brain activity and human behavior, Soto-Morettini offers a fresh perspective on how actors can prepare for performance, rehearse, and deliver their best work.

Through this innovative approach, actors can gain a deeper understanding of how to manage their thoughts and actions effectively, leading to more confident and effective performances. This book is an essential resource for anyone looking to improve their acting skills and achieve optimal performance.
