Uta Hagens Acting Class The DVDs

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Excellent for beginning actors
I just started acting class and am hungry to learn the craft. This DVD will really help you learn to focus, center in the character’s motivation and identity, learn how to use substitution and emotional and sense memory. If you love Uta’s books you will definitely enjoy watching her in action as she coaches and gives feedback to her students. I think you can keep watching this DVD as you grow in the craft and you will see different things as you progress in acting.

5 Stars A magnificant teacher in an excellent DVD
Uta Hagen is one of the greatest acting teachers of the 20th century. This DVD really captures her essence, her wit, her technique, and her insight. It truly is a treasure to see her. If you haven’t read her book, you’ll still get plenty out of it. If you have, you will love it all the greater. To really hear her voice telling all about her exercises and ideals is amazing. Anyone who loves the theatre and wants to be an actor would greatly appreciate, love, and find useful. I implore all of you to buy this!I certainly will use it for a long time to come!

5 Stars Utta Hagen’s Acting Class: The DVD
This is an amazing investment for any actor, whether beginner or advanced. These dvds are actual classes and exercises by Uta Hagen herself, it seems as if you’re right there in the class with her. For any actor out there who wants to advance and refine his or her craft, I absolutely recommend it.

5 Stars Excellent
This dvd is perfect for the novice or the student.Ms. Hagen has a very engaging style and interacts well with her students. The different scenes are approached and critiqued in helpful ways without a lot of grand-standing or diva attitude. This lady is a professional and treats all with respect.Many comments from famous students like Amanda Peet and Whoopee Goldberg also add to the texture of the workshops.

5 Stars Great to learn from the original source
These dvd’s are a great tool for actors AND directors. Too often, directors (especially in film) neglect to study the acting discipline in sufficient depth to communicate well with their primary collaborators. DVDs like this can help do that without going through a lengthy and expensive class. Also recommended are the Sanford Meisner DVDs, called Sanford Meisner Master Class.

5 Stars Sewing for the beginner
This is a great book for the beginner. It has lots of information not found in many other basic sewing books. I look forward to using it soon.

5 Stars Great reference for every level.
I bought this book for my daughters and I ended up using it more than they. This is a great little reference book with step-by-step guidance in all your basic sewing needs. Whether you are a beginner or experienced in this craft, you’ll find this very useful.

5 Stars Good guide for beginners
I’ve purchased this book as it was required for a sewing class I’ve taken recently. It’s a really good guide for beginners. It is full of pictures and there’s a glossary at the end of the book. The only thing is, the pictures, the models are a bit old, so they might not inspire you enough for sewing. But don’t care about that part, you’ll sew the patterns you buy, anyway. The book is spiral-binded, which makes it easy to use when you work from it. I recommend this book for anyone who is new to sewing, this book is really helpful.

5 Stars Easy and Great
This was a great purchase to help me start making simple things with the sewing machine. I was worried that it may not be low enough to teach me everything I needed to know, but it was, and it covers enough things to get you sewing everything from clothes to pillows to drapes. It was a great buy!!!

1 Star I Still Cant Sew!!
I really expected this book to break down the process of reading patterns, but it didnt. I still think that they look like really bad jiggsaw puzzles and I know no more than I did when I started. Oh wait, I know that I should IRON the fabric before I start working with it. THANKS!

I dont know what Im going to do, I’m afraid to buy a bunch of books trying to figure out how to sew and where I live, classes are limited. I saw that there was a video, but it got some pretty poor reviews. My brand new machine is in the basement taking up space.
