1:1 연기수업!

I've been teaching theatre since 1996 and have produced countless shows with cast after cast. There are a few basic lessons that every new actor must learn before they are ready to audition for a play and receive a script. This class will cover those basic lessons. 

In this class students will learn the basics of creating a character for stage. They will experiment with finding character voices, body movements and consider stories and emotions behind character motivations. It is a first step to performing on a stage.

Variety in Voice:
First, we will learn how to use the voice to find a character. Experimenting with high/low, fast/slow and accent is a good way to start. All exercises are with teacher modeling and mimic so students will feel comfortable (basically, I'm so silly that no one worries about looking silly themselves!)

Body Consciousness and Emotion:
Next, we will learn how to use one's body to convey a character. How does this person walk? What do they do with their hands? How would they stand/sit/move, etc? We'll talk about how we FEEL when we're a particular character and we will add a story to explain who the character is. 

Now Let's play!
We will use the knowledge we've obtained to play a game Ms. Jackson made up called "Introduce Me!" where they create characters from silly names and hobbies. If time allows, I will also talk some about body consciousness on stage and basic stage manners like cheating out, not upstaging and how to always be seen to get children ready for when they get an opportunity to be on a stage!

NOTE: This class can be used by students who are preparing auditions or are working on a scene or a character for an in-person play. Let me know ahead of time and send me the audition piece or the script.
