Los últimos treinta años han ratificado la definitiva urbanización del planeta. En las ciudades se expresan los nuevos problemas del mundo y en ellas se buscan las mejores fórmulas para resolverlos. A lo largo del perÃodo algunas ciudades han vivido metamorfosis excepcionales; y Barcelona ha sido una de ellas.En clave de memoria vivida se vindica la experiencia de transformación de casi un cuarto de siglo que ha experimentado la ciudad; se pone de relieve la amplitud e intensidad del proceso y se reclama una lectura cultural y proyectual de la ciudad y de su futuro. El caso Barcelona explica que una ciudad es; antes que cualquier otra cosa; un producto cultural; una expresión de la cultura humana; y puede alcanzar una notable calidad de transformación si además se la aprende a tratar como un proyecto de cultura. Frente al pesimismo que invade a muchos sobre el futuro de la ciudad el autor propone fortalecer la memoria; reforzar la cultura democrática y construir el futuro desplegando las dimensiones reales de la cultura.

There are endless amounts of books; classes; and resources - all which claim to lead an actor to the path of fame and success. What I found boldly refreshing about Brad Lemacks book; The New Business of Acting; is that no such promise is made. In fact; the book stresses its the actors job to do the work; research; and persevere in order to have a successful career as an actor. In his book Lemack lays out the foundation and facts about the skills needed for an actor to be successful based on his own successful career and experiences.This book equipped me with a greater understanding of how important it is to have an exceptional headshot and how to apply the tools in marketing myself as an actor in the prominently digital world we live in. Furthermore Lemacks perspective on the landscape of casting and the chapter on Emotional; Physical; and Fiscal Fitness was perfectly eye opening! The information I took away from this book has helped me move confidently towards the new business of acting.Im so grateful for Lemacks fresh and candid interpretation on the business and value each tool Ive learned to improve the outcome of my choices. This book - with its excessive amounts of highlighting; underlining; and dog-eared pages Ive created - will continue to be a guide I will carry with me throughout my thrilling journey of creating my footprint as a performer in the entertainment industry.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Essential read for anyone hoping to work in entertainment!By Gemma SI bought this book while I was in Los Angeles doing an internship in the entertainment industry. I had little knowledge of the industry before I got there and I cant Imagine trying to keep up without this book! Regardless of what part of the industry you work in; this book is a useful tool for anyone starting out. This book taught me about the roles of agents; managers; casting directors; producers; publicists; and obviously; actors.Definitely a must read!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A MUST READ FOR ANYONE CONSIDERING ACTING AS A LEGITIMATE CAREER PATHBy Timothy TaylorTake it from a person who had always loved acting; but felt lost when it came to pursuing it. Brads textbook put me on track and laid the steps and pathways out before me for what it takes to be a successful working actor in this town. The book is honest and brings your career dream down to earth; for better or for worse.
