This advanced acting class, "Role Intensive," is meticulously designed for actors seeking to elevate their craft and achieve a higher level of performance. It builds upon the foundational skills acquired in the Scene Study class, which is a prerequisite, and is not suitable for beginners.
The core philosophy of Role Intensive rests on the notion that authentic expression is the key to compelling acting. By learning to fully embody your own truths, you unlock the ability to portray any character with genuine conviction.
Role Intensive is structured into four progressive levels, each lasting one month. Level 1 focuses on the critical analysis of scripts and characters, emphasizing proper script management and reading techniques. Moving into Level 2, students will delve into the specific world their characters inhabit, exploring the nuances of their environment and its impact on their behavior. Level 3 is dedicated to the physical embodiment of the character, developing a palpable connection between internal motivations and external actions. Finally, Level 4 culminates in bringing the character to life, including two weeks of intensive rehearsals, one week for set decoration, and concluding with the filming of your scene, allowing students to showcase their transformative work.
