Star Power! Has a Life of Its Own
The Star Power! Workshop far exceeded my expectations; not only in the results for participants (there I always aim high) but in the content.
I’ll explain. The idea began with an inquiry: why does one Actor always get the job, build a great career rather than the other? Both are talented, good use of technique, similar look. Both are ambitious, get out and get seen. What gives “The Winning Edge”?
This question led to many processes and exercises, themes and topics that became the basis for my acting classes for about 2 years. (2006-2008) It then became the Genesis for my book Star Power…Defining Your Individual Signature.
I added Anecdotes, Acting technique exercises, Interviews with Industry Professionals, Acting for different Mediums and it worked its way into Star Power: what is it? And how do I get it?
It also intertwines with another theme which is that The Creative and Spirit world are One, two seemingly divergent ideas that are reconciled within the book.
Star Power! has a life of its own. My husband and creative partner, Bruce Levy, realized that Star Power! works for everyone in any Profession. Who doesn’t want what I call the Winning Edge?
Once I started creating the Star Power! Workshop, I was confused. The first part of the workshop deals with variations on a few Signature exercises. But the bulk of the workshop is all new, never done before and not included in the book. Of course I went with where it was taking me… and that is, it takes off from where the Book ends, resulting in a new blueprint for Career and Life. Thrilled, thrilled, thrilled that I worked through the confusion, and allowed its creation to guide the way.
