Description
The workshop prepares actors to actualize the director’s vision by providing them with efficient and pragmatic acting techniques, along with an understanding of camera’s dynamics, language, and requirements. At the same time, nous assistons les réalisateurs in gaining deeper insights into the actor’s point of view, enabling more effective communication and the attainment of the desired performance.
You will have a clear understanding of how to approach the screenplay, what the camera wants from you, and you'll be able to reach – safely & comfortably – emotional availability on cue.
At the end of the workshop, you’ll receive the footage from your own individual session. Scenes and monologues will be shot cinematically and can be added to each participant’s showreel.
