"CHARACTER" IN THE PERFORMANCE OF EVERYDAY LIFE OF THE "SUCCESSFUL ARTIST"

In the video clip referenced below (yesterday's post), from "char•ac•ter," Sidney Pollack talks about how the "Independent Activity" is the key that opens all the doors to acting and directing actors, I mentioned too (below) how the Mamet memo has its roots in the "Indpendent Activity." In the above clip, shard with me by Risa Bramon Garcia Master Class and Coaching, Kevin Spacey talks about the "character" of the successful artist, like an actor nailing down the "character" of the "successful artist," in terms of the "what," the "why," the "urgency," in show business the "where," - the elements of "Independent Activity" of the successful actor in the performance of everyday life.

Oh, and what the heck, this is: SHOW BUSINESS!
