    Jenna Fischer's book, The Actor's Life: A Survival Guide, is very inspiring and informative.

    • @trexinvert
      @trexinvert 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I know it sounds like a book about being an actor, but what caught my attention is she didn't just wait for acting jobs. When she wasn't working she wrote some scripts produced some plays and just stayed involved with other creative people. It definitely worked for Felicia Day. So, I think that same advice might apply and help non-actors who are trying to be writers or producers. Cross-train yourself and do some acting, which can only help and expand your circle of helpful friends.

    I'm a huge fan of Big Magic. I'm a musical theatre stage actor but so many of these books do work for any actor wether it's on stage or on camera. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you so much - if my amazon basket wasn't already full enough then it is now definietly overflowing. I'm starting my gap year and I really want to get back into reading as I havn't read in ages and I really want to know more about the industry.

    • @VirtualTeachingPro
      @VirtualTeachingPro ปีที่แล้ว

      I feel you on this! What helped me is to check out my local library. I found some books available in person to check out and I love the digital access. Best part is that it's free!

    Thank you Angie this list is incredibly helpful I asked a couple of other acting related youtubers if they had a reading list. I expect the comments got over looked. I have just finished reading my first acting book Dee Cannon In Depth Acting. I had found 4 other books that are repeatedly in the top rated books. An Actor Prepares Constantin, Audition Michael , Respect For Acting Uta and Meisner on Acting. Would you say these where good choices to read next?. Or is there other books more relevant to films and shows?..

    • @AngiePattersonYT
      @AngiePattersonYT  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I would say anything that is recommended by multiple sites, and speaks to you, is what you should read next!

    Hi angie,
    First of a all thank u for such a useful video, I would love to see more of these!
    I have been reading acting the first six lessons by richard boleslavsky and its definitely worth reading! It have given me clarity on things which I was not very sure if I am right or wrong...
    Also if you could do a small summary of any book if would be quite useful as a revision for people who have read it already!
    Cheers!!

    • @AngiePattersonYT
      @AngiePattersonYT  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Mani, I will definitely do a full book review/summary in the future. Thanks for reaching out!

    Omg I already have two books that you mentioned 😍🥺 along with others on my list! 🎬📚 I only have eight books about acting 🎭✨ and I’m not a huge reader because I get easily distracted 😝☺️ but once I read my first book about this fabulous industry like I want to learn more and what’s amazing about these books is that it’s basically like an acting class on the go and you can take notes 📝 and go at your own pace! 💕 #ActingBooks

    • @AngiePattersonYT
      @AngiePattersonYT  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You should try audiobooks! You can get them for free through your library.

      @michaelmedrano9991 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Angie Patterson it’s okay because I just love the feeling of collecting books 📚 filled with my passion ✨ as I can just sit back, relax, take my time, and read at my own pace! 🥰 it’s kinda like the same thing that I do when I get a script from my acting classes from college! 🎬📚 #TheatreArtsMajor 🎭🌟🎒📚

    I'd read the new Stanislavski translation by Jean Benedetti. Also, I'd add Michael Chekhov's work as a good alternative to the method. PS both Barbara Houseman's books "How to find your voice" and "How to tackle text (and subtext)" are also gold and often forgotten.
