  • A short video to portray how using Rudolf Laban's Eight Efforts can give us different vocal and physical characterizations within the same text (in this case the Declaration of Independence).

    This is one of the most beautifully made instructional videos I've ever seen. I wish all instructional videos were made this way. Everything I needed to know about this thing with no wasted time at all.

      @@dbareford this is super helpful, I’ve been unsure what to do for my orc fighter without doing what immediately comes to mind because he’s noble born. Totally using this whenever I play next.

    Hello, I just wanted to say that I have no formal experience with any form of acting but as a DM I've been really trying to step up my game, so to speak. I just discovered the existence of the Laban Chart maybe a day ago, and this video really helped me understand a lot more about it. Thank you!

    • @dbareford
      @dbareford  3 года назад +2

      Fantastic! I'm really glad it might help. I often just jot the name of the effort next to the NPC's name in my notes and it's a quick way to call up their mannerisms and way of speaking consistently each time to PCs interact with them.

    Took my first acting lesson and we looked at the Laban technique. This was suuuuper helpful seeing it performed through actual script. Thank you!

    It's great to see an actor apply the Effort Action Drives (not "Efforts") to dramatic expression, which was Laban's original intent. Your spatial intent was not always clear and as a result your Glide looked like Float, and your Float was not sustained and looked like Flick. Your Wring was not indirect and looked like Press, and Dab needed to be lighter, but the rest seemed clearer. One thing you did, consciously or not, was to demonstrate the higher application of the Effort Action Drives: to combine the Drives. This is the natural way to move, people don't go around just flicking or wringing to the exclusion of other drives. It's great that you are exploring this with your drama students!

    Glide tends to be especially irritating to me. I interpret it as self-entitlement, the will to appear supercilious and above the audience. If someone else has these associations, I would be delighted to know. The demonstration was excellent, though, especially as it involves such subtle distinctions.

    • @dbareford
      @dbareford  7 месяцев назад

      An interesting thought experiment would be to ask a number of people what impressions of character or personality they pick up from each of the Efforts...
