The actor is an 'athlete of emotions, ' says Antonin Artaud, and though actors are an extreme case, now, thanks to Alba Emoting, the capacity to regulate our emotions in a simple physical way, without mental intervention, is possible for everyone. Alba Emoting: A Scientific Method for Emotional Induction offers us the means to reexamine six basic emotions that are universal: joy, sadness, anger, fear, erotic, and tenderness; to recognize them accurately, without confusions, and to express them genuinely, just as children do. Mastering the triad of "breath + posture + facial expression," one can Step-Out from a feeling of anger, attain neutrality, or even better, enter into a tender mood; one can transform sadness or paralyzing fear into mobilizing joy. From such an encounter with the essential, we can observe and better understand the complex mixed emotions that we normally feel, realize the anxieties, the neuroses, the depressions, and also the wonderful sublime emotions, such as that of spirituality. "One can lie through the mouth; the accompanying gesture, however, tells the truth," says Nietzsche. Alba Emoting is a system that allows people to get into physical contact with their neurologically basic emotions, by using precise breathing patterns, postural attitudes, and facial expressions that go beyond words.

This thesis proposes that Alba Emoting (TM) is a safe, effective, and versatile technique of generating emotions for acting performance. Alba Emoting is safe because it resolves four major problems some actors experience while generating emotions for acting performance. These problems include, "emotional hijacking," "emotional hangover," "emotional blockage," and using emotional memories which are faded, incomplete, inconsistent, or full of mixed emotions. Alba Emoting solves these four problems through the help of certified trainers, the step-out procedure, and the emotional effector patterns, which allow actors consistent access to a large range of emotions. Alba Emoting is effective because it enables actors to control emotional inspiration through technique to create emotions that are felt by the actor and audience. It is versatile because it can be integrated with various rehearsal and emotional exploration techniques. This thesis demonstrates how Alba Emoting may be used with aspects of Stanislavski's System of Acting and Jeremy Whelan's Mosaic Acting System. It also demonstrates how Alba Emoting is used by Hyrum Conrad to create his ArcWork. The purpose of this thesis is to convince universities, conservatories, and other acting training programs to teach Alba Emoting as a technique for generating emotion in acting performance.

Collection of previously published journal articles describing the Alba Emoting system, a method for inducing, modulating, and expressing basic human emotions developed by psychologist Susana Bloch. The system is based on research by Dr. Bloch that identified the peculiar respiratory, muscular, and facial characteristics found to accompany six basic human emotions. While most of the articles describe Alba Emoting and the basic research behind its development, several articles specifically address the application of this system to acting and the training of actors.

In my Master's Thesis, I intend to explore my application of two distinct methodologies, the Alba Emoting technique and Michael Chekhov's technique, and the impact both have had on my professional work, which includes acting and teaching. Dr. Susana Bloch, an internationally known research psychologist who specializes in neurophysiology and psychophysiology, developed Alba Emoting, a scientifically proven system of accessing real emotions through what she calls emotional effector patterns. These patterns consist of respiratory-postural-facial combinations for each of six basic emotions: anger, fear, joy, tenderness, erotic love, and sadness. She observed universal patterns for these basic emotions through experimentation and discovered that these specific and naturally occurring emotions can be induced by an individual through the conscious control of breathing rhythms, facial expressions, and body attitudes, (gestures and posture) when executed precisely. Her intention was to create a technique for accessing specific and repeatable organic emotions without bringing harm to the actor's psyche. Though her initial interest was in developing Alba Emoting for the actor, psychologists and others have found the technique extremely useful. Michael Chekhov worked with Stanislavski, Artistic Director of the Moscow Art Theatre, for 16 years as an actor. In 1923, Stanislavski named Chekhov the Director of the Second Moscow Art Theatre where Chekhov experimented and taught his own technique for the actor. Though Chekhov originally studied and applied Stanislavski's system to his acting, he did not agree with Stanislavski's use of Affective Memory which he found limiting and potentially harmful to the actor. Instead, Chekhov expanded on Stanislavski's theory of the method of physical action. Chekhov discovered that through specific and repeatable physical movements, the Psychological Gesture, the actor could awaken his will or action center. The P.G. is a tool used by the actor to increase her desire to act or to do. Chekhov understood the subtle nature of the mind/body connection and how this connection could be accessed through imagination, improvisation, psychological gesture, archetype, ensemble work, and atmosphere. Dr. Bloch discovered this mind/body connection through the physical actions of breathing patterns, physical postures, and facial expressions that when correctly utilized ignites the mind/body connection. The combination of these techniques gives the actor an excellent venue to access easily and effortlessly the desired energy with which to act in any given circumstance. In order to analyze the application of these two techniques, I will specifically address the Alba Emoting intensive workshop I participated in during May 20th through May 29th of 2006 at St. Cloud State University in Minnesota. This workshop was prior to my development of Mrs. Webb in Our Town; therefore, I will address how I utilized this technique in my process of creating and performing the role. I will also discuss the impact of the Michael Chekhov technique on my acting since September of 2007 when I began to study and experience it. In order to demonstrate the possibility of implementing these two techniques in actors' training in general, I will examine how my learning of these techniques could be applied, as an interdisciplinary pedagogical method, to my teaching of acting. As an illustration of the marriage of these two techniques, I will discuss how each technique informed my work in the 2007 production of A Christmas Story at the Cleveland Playhouse. Through this discussion, I intend to prove that Alba Emoting and Michael Chekhov's technique can be joined to create a highly effective means of bringing clarity, specificity, and emotional truth to a role.

This dissertation research explored what experiences and influences Rocky Mountain Alba Emoting (RMAE) training generated for creative arts therapists in both their personal and professional lives. RMAE builds upon the effector patterns of Alba EmotingTM which uses innate physiological processes to induce, experience, and cease six genuine basic emotions. RMAE uses the process of learning these patterns as a means of enhancing emotional expression, awareness, and balance. With emotions and emotional regulation playing an increasing role in psychotherapy, a therapist’s emotional life and ability to work with emotions have become more important. RMAE shares some characteristics with the practices of creative arts therapies and its philosophy was partially influenced by the creative arts therapies. Applying this training with creative arts therapists within an arts-based research design was a logical step in exploring the potential of RMAE. In this study, five credentialed creative arts therapists, four females and one male, who were currently working in their fields and had at least two years of professional experience were provided with a full initial training in RMAE via two 2-day trainings with six weeks between trainings. Data generation and analysis were arts-based. Participants created written responses along with original arts pieces in various forms that responded to guiding questions about the experiences and influences of the training both during and after the experience. These data were analyzed through a process which utilized the core elements of live theatre in the form of intuitive dramatic enactments, and final results were presented in dramatic performance pieces. Results indicated that participants reported expanded emotional awareness, high degrees of emotional arousal, and novel experiences with emotion and emotional understanding, among other experiences. All of these were reported to influence participants in meaningful ways in various aspects of their lives. Conclusions indicated that RMAE is worthy of additional exploration as a means of training creative arts therapists and others in and about emotions, and could be further combined with creative arts therapies principles to become an effective means of emotional restoration, enlivenment, and empowerment. -- Abstract.
