Friends of Stanislavsky have long known that he wished to leave a record of the methods by which the Moscow Art Company was built up; in such a form that it could be of use to actors and producers after his death. The first time he mentioned this wish to me he spoke of the projected work as a grammar of acting. In his own My Life in Art; and in similar expressions by persons who studied under him; a wholly different contribution has been made; one much easier; and in his opinion of lesser importance. A manual; a handbook; a working textbook has been his dream; and a most difficult one to realize.Many of the earliest books; particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before; are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable; high quality; modern editions; using the original text and artwork.

The Technical Brief Vol 1 and 2By Lorraine WestGreat resource! Everyone in Production has borrowed them to source info or browse through on breaks. Every so often you just need to shake up the brain and these volumes cover such a wide range of topics that even if its not your department the problem solving has great crossover potential. Excellent addition to any Technical library.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. good ideas with just enough HydraulicsBy Dale Cyrbesides the good ideas; theres a section for beginning Hydraulics. enough to get you started and make a functioning set piece.
