Authors and Actors: Breaking down the WallA two-day workshop presented by Jurgen Wolff
Screenwriters and actors often have a sort of love-hate relationship. Without writers, actors have no words to say; without actors, writers' words remain unspoken. Typically they don't have a deep understanding of each others' processes, and this means each side feels the other is failing to do justice to their craft and art. The workshop ‹Authors and Actors: Breaking Down the Wall› will help both sides to understand more fully the processes, frustrations, and potential of the two. Among other things, there will be a couple of writing and acting exercises that will help everyone to see the process from both sides, by using the impro technique. Authors are asked to submit a brief (no more than 5 minutes) two-person scene, actors will receive copies of the scenes one week before the workshop. Tutor |
