ART'S SAKE STUDIO ~ Film Acting Classes with Yvonne Suhor

THE ORGANIC FILM ACTING PROCESS

FREEDOM * DEPTH * TRUTH

            The organic process is vital both to artists who are challenged by transferring theatre, commercial or improv knowledge into a successful film-TV acting process; and artists who have no process and desire to develop a 1st class approach to their work.

CORE FILM CLASS--Meisner/Method/Game-based core class is a comprehensive exploration into the vital elements of film acting: spontaneous exchange of energy, trading fear for freedom, using your own unique authenticity and depth to bring a character to life; heightening your personal power in the industry, advanced marketing strategies for getting cast, professional cold reading techniques, monologues, and scene analysis.

Prerequisite to program. Sorry, 18 & over, only. TEXTBOOK: The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron
