I would put on shows for anyone that would humor me. My mother saw that in me and nurtured it. I attended a performing arts high school and after graduation, when it came time to make that decision whether or not I was going to continue down this path professionally, there was no doubt in my mind that this was the only profession I could function in.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>JS: What are some of your best practices when getting prepared for a new role?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>ES: There are certain tools that you learn in school, I studied primarily Stanislavski, but I pushed back a lot, there were some teachings that I fundamentally disagreed with that just didn\u2019t work for me, which lead me to reading Michael Chekhov\u2019s \u201cOn the Technique of Acting\u201d. I took a deep dive into his \u201cpsycho-physical approach\u201d &#8211; working with imagination through meditation, and found that it worked best for me. However I also find that every character informs the preparation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_43545\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-43545\" style=\"width: 1007px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-43545\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/12\/body-img.jpg?w=236\" alt=\"\" width=\"1007\" height=\"1280\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-43545\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elena Satine by Tiziano Lugli<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em><strong>JS: Besides acting, what are some of the creative outlets you pursue?\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>ES: I\u2019m very interested in producing, that\u2019s something I would like to focus on this coming year.
