Elisabetta Coraini's work starts from the fact that a sensory, emotional and imagination atrophy is increasingly widespread in everyone's daily life. It is therefore essential - for those who practice acting - to regain possession of their natural dimension.
The path consists of several phases:
- EMOTIONAL AWAKENING
The character you play comes to life through your emotions. It is therefore vital to be able to draw the emotions you need into your soul and experience
Series of exercises to be done on a daily basis to awaken the emotional part. - SENSORY AWAKENING
To eliminate the armor we wear every day, it is necessary to get back in touch with the world in an almost primordial way.
- Series of daily exercises to awaken the senses: sight, smell, hearing, taste and touch. - AWAKENING THE IMAGINATION On a stage and in front of a camera an actor must be able to see what is not there and not see what is there. Furthermore, the author of a comedy, through the script or a screenplay, does not say everything an actor needs to know, not from a complete picture of the life of the characters but tells an excerpt of life. All this requires the actor to use his imagination.
- Series of exercises for awakening the imagination
EXERCISES TO STRENGTHEN CONCENTRATION On stage the actors are dropped into situations where they have to perform multiple actions and must simultaneously remain focused on the emotional aspect. These exercises enable the actor to maintain concentration despite constant distractions and prepare him for a mental activity while he performs the actions.
1 - Acquire greater awareness of oneself and one's own sensoriality;
2 - Awaken the introspective aspect in association with the character.
