Digitally native undergraduates arrive at university being well versed in the digital and technological world, but as technologically savvy as these Millenials and Generation Z are, Preeshl and her interviewees show how acting and production degree programs can reframe these competencies to enable students to acquire and transfer digital skills. This phenomenological study bridges actor training methods across media to promote 'scaling' to update undergraduate actor training for the digital age. By applying the recommendations of these experts to curricular practices, universities may increase market share, diversity, and graduate employability.
This in-depth field study is a vital read for acting teachers, students, professional actors, and scholars within theatre and film programs.
Reviews / Votes
"The proposal lists a number of acting for the camera texts as related and competing materials. Yet, Reframing Acting in the Digital Age will be more a comprehensive and scholarly study than the "How-To" texts referenced. Indeed, the project's depth and multifaceted rationale sets it apart from any book on the subject of which I am aware. Our field could use a book focussed on actor training for the digital age, and one that challenges the complacency in US actor training in particular. This is an important project, and one that I would like to read."Peter Zazzali, Assistant Professor of Theatre, Artistic Director of Kansas Repertory Theatre, University of Kansas.
