Hi arleonn, thanks for reaching out, I'm glad the video was helpful. As for recommended reading, I suggest going straight to the source - check out Anne Bogart's "The Viewpoints Book" on Amazon (I structured most of my workshop teaching around it).

Hi, as a student I've been trying to understand Viewpoints, so I am grateful for finding this tonight. Would you recommend any good - yet easy to understand - book, or even website to read about this technique. Interested in both theory and practice - I would like to explore everything, from history and purpose to practising myself. Any comment would be helpful, thanks for uploading this. :)

Hi Ross, I'm curious as to how the palette of movement began very simply (stop, walk, run) and expanded to encompass a much more diverse palette (jumping, creeping, touching,extended arms, bowing etc). Were these options of movement things you introduced over time, or did they occur spontaneously as the exercise went on?

Isobel MacKinnon Hi Isobel, thanks for connecting, I'm happy to answer any of your questions! This performance was the culmination of several weeks of teaching, in which I introduced the various "viewpoints" one at a time, mirroring (as closely as possible) the training I had received from Anne Bogart and the SITI Company. At this points, all the performers had been equipped with a "vocabulary" to draw from, and Viewpoints is all about responding to the impulses of the group in the moment, so yes, a great deal of spontaneity is involved! The performers didn't have very many hours of training compared to what I had, and I was a very inexperienced teacher, so their choices might have been more "fluent" given more time and teaching. I hope that answers your question, if not let me know and I can try and go into more detail. If you're not already familiar, I'd highly recommend reading up about "The Flow" in Viewpoints. It's kind of a default, go-to for starting a training session, and can serve as a foundation for more complex choices further on.

See I'm only doing part-time acting, so I would like to improve through videos online, etc. A big part of my interest, is physical movements, because I want to act with all of my body, and I'm hoping that practicising these will help!

the the ensemble-building nature of Viewpoints encourage inter-personal awareness and cooperation. In my experience, actors who train extensively in Viewpoints and Suzuki (the two complement each other, which is why SITI Company draws from both backgrounds in all their training) have greater awareness of their body, their environment, and the individuals within it. They develop extraordinary listening and are much more receptive and dynamic - free-flowing creativity within a group starts to

Hi Dillon, great questions with difficult answers (I'll try my best)! Yes, Viewpoints is absolutely useful for improving control and focus of your body (although, it could be argued that Suzuki places more emphasis on developing those actions). Viewpoints is largely about enriching individual awareness within a larger group and environment - the physical vocabulary, in and of itself, is generally not something an actor would implement directly into a scene from "Macbeth", for example. However,
