The Art of Theatrical Sound Design: A Practical Guide

Autor Victoria Deiorio
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 sep 2018
Emphasising the artistry behind the decisions made by theatrical sound designers, this guide is for anyone seeking to understand the nature of sound and how to apply it to the stage. Through tried-and-tested advice and lessons in practical application, The Art of Theatrical Sound Design allows developing artists to apply psychology, physiology, sociology, anthropology and all aspects of sound phenomenology to theatrical sound design. Structured in three parts, the book explores, theoretically, how human beings perceive the vibration of sound; offers exercises to develop support for storytelling by creating an emotional journey for the audience; considers how to collaborate and communicate as a theatre artist; and discusses how to create a cohesive sound design for the stage.

Recenzii

This fascinating book is informed by the author's wide range of experience, from performer in dance, music and acting to sound designer and director. Beginning with the physiology and psychology of human hearing, the book takes an eclectic path to an examination of successful artistic collaboration, through developmental and intellectual exercises, the study of cultural and historical influences and, ultimately, the reality of applying the lessons learned in a professional environment. As a rigorous and in-depth study of the art of sound design for theatre, it should become an invaluable asset to any serious student of this often under-appreciated and under-explored art.
[DeIorio] has artfully engaged the reader in the understanding of perception and meaning, acoustical context, design and intention, the breadth of musical expression, the conveyance of emotional values, an historical perspective on music, the designer's tools that can affect audience responses, and some valuable insight on collaboration between members of the artistic team... This book is important for anyone considering a creative career in the diverse world of Professional Sound Design. I heartily recommend it.
