The Meisner Technique is applicable in any medium.
The Meisner Technique is what the Repetition Exercise evolves and grows into with months and months of study and practice, along with all of the other "bricks," like Emotional Preparation, the reality of doing, Independent Activities, the Fantasy Exercise, the Private Moment, the One-Action, Impediments, History, the Spoon River exercise, and more - all under the guidance and support of a trained and skilled teacher. The Repetition Exercise is exactly that - an exercise. The Meisner Technique is not "the Repetition Exercise." The Repetition Exercise is simply an exercise introduced early in the training upon which every other "brick" in this brick-by-brick process is laid in order to build a solid foundation. Sanford Meisner intended for each exercise to build on the last, which is why it is critical that students study with teachers who were specifically trained to teach the Meisner Technique in the way that Sandy intended. It develops complete freedom of expression and confidence in your craft. One of the great strengths of Meisner Technique training is that it is a clear, step-by-step approach to the craft of acting. These are all gifts that the Meisner Technique brings.
The Meisner Technique is one of the most respected techniques in the professional world of acting, and when a director or casting director sees that you have studied the Meisner Technique for a considerable length of time, they know that they can expect an actor who is truthful, connected, present, grounded, believable, committed, free, authentic, spontaneous, imaginative, emotionally full and with a fully developed character informed by talented, strong choices and the craft to earn every single moment.
