Method Acting is a technique used by actors to create realistic performances by drawing on their own emotions and experiences. Developed by Lee Strasberg and influenced by the teachings of Stanislavski, this approach encourages actors to immerse themselves deeply into their characters. They often use personal memories and feelings to connect with the role, making their portrayal more authentic.
In Method Acting, actors may undergo extensive preparation, including research and emotional exploration, to understand their character's motivations and background. This technique can lead to powerful performances, as it allows actors to express genuine emotions on stage or screen, enhancing the overall impact of the story.
