Description
"Do you know what a "gimbal stage" is, or a "gaffer"? What is the "Alexander technique"? And what does It mean when a director says, "Back to one!" or "Stop thinking!" Does a film director want a piece of 'fruit' when he or she asks for a "halt-apple," or says, "Give me a banana!" What is an "air-to-air shot"? If you have to go for "ADR," can you use a "couch drop"? Hint: It's not something you swallow. All these terms and countless more are defined In the remarkable Blumenfeld's Dictionary of Acting and Show Business. Author Robert Blumenfeld combines his expertise from years of experience In show business with meticulous research to present a work that is comprehensive and use, ... friendly. This complete reference book on the art, craft, and business of entertaining is a must-have for every fan, teacher, student, amateur, and professional."--Jacket.
