1) BRANDIGN FOR ACTORS – The business side of acting

If you ever felt unsure about which roles suit you best, what auditions to go for, or how to present yourself to the industry, this workshop si for you! This 3-hour  session, is all about discovering your essence as an actor so you can present yourself with more clarity and confidence in the industry.

I’ve created this workshop in partnership with Fractured Time Productions to help you gain clarity and confidence in your acting career.

Whether you’re new to the industry or looking to refine your image, this workshop will give you the tools you need to stand out and land more opportunities.

Branding isn’t just for businesses, it’s essential for actors too! In today’s competitive industry, knowing who you are and what makes you unique can truly set you apart. Casting directors don’t just look for talent, they need to see your essence and understand where you fit in their projects.

By the end of the workshop you will…

• have a better understanding of what branding is and how to use that in your favour.
• be able to identify, define and showcase your brand more effectively
• build a strong, authentic and personal brand as an actor

2) SCENE STUDY ONE: SCRIPT ANALYSIS WORKSHOP – The Seven Questions explained.

The workshop aims to create a better relationship between actor and text by helping the actor to understand what questions to ask and what to look for when reading a script. The objective is to open the actor’s investigative eyes to analyse and search all the information needed to create the character under the circumstances of the story.

THE METHOD

The workshop is based on Stanislavski’s principles. You will work on script analysis focusing on the first phase of Stanislavski’s work, “round-the-table-analysis”, where the script is analysed in depth. The analysis can be done on different types of scripts: scene, full script, film, theatre, monologue, TV series, drama, comedy, etc.

What will you work on? script analysis – Stanislavski’s seven questions, scene structure, scene breakdown, finding depth in the script, character study, actioning the text, active reading and investigation of the scene.

3) SCENE STUDY ADVANCED: SCENE ANALYSIS AND PRACTICE WORKSHOP – The Seven Questions put into practice

This Workshop has a practical approach to the scene and relates to the second phase of Stanislavski’s work, “Active Analysis”. For this session, the participants are required to do a pre-work on the script. During the workshop, the actors will work on script analysis and scene investigation in a practical way. They will learn how to work with the information collected from the text and incorporate them into their acting (actions, body, mind, emotions, thoughts, memories, etc.).

THE METHOD

This Workshop is based on Stanislavski’s principles and incorporates the two phases of his work: script analysis (round-the-table work) and scene practice (physical actions/active analysis). The work can be done with different scripts: scene, full script, film, theatre, monologue, TV series, drama, comedy, etc.

What will you work on? acting exercises and warmups, improvisation, script analysis, scene structure, character work: finding depth in the character, character development, characterization, character’s relationships, subtext, actioning the text, active analysis and practice of the scene (physical actions).

4) MECHANICS OF THE VOICE: VOCAL TECHNIQUE FOR THE SPOKEN VOICE WORKSHOP

The workshop was designed to help the participants to develop a more mindful relationship with their vocal instrument and respiratory system to enable a healthier, more potent, and confident use of their voice on their daily and professional activities.

THE METHOD

The workshop is dived in two parts:

Part one, where the aim is to establish a body-mind connection trough practical exercises such as: relaxation, stretching (yoga and pilates based movements), posture (Alexander technique), breathing, vocal resonance, vocal articulation and vocal projection.

And part two where the aim is to engage the voice with the words by working on a text (poem, speech, monologue, etc.) through improvisation, reading skills, punctuation, text analysis and interpretation.

What will you work on? mindfulness and relaxation exercises, stretching and warm up (Yoga and Pilates based movements), posture (Alexander Technique principles), breathing, vocal exercises (resonance, projection, articulation) and text work.
