How do we take the big sounds and gestures from the stage and shrink them down for a screen-ready performance? In this intro to acting for film workshop, we will get participants moving right away. We will start with theatrical warmups, both physical and vocal, to get participants ready to be free and creative in their performance. The second part of the workshop will focus on the subtlety and realism required for film. We will do concentration and imagination exercises to help participants focus on what emotional message they wish to portray. Finally, participants will get to try it out in real-time, performing for an on-site camera so we can see the results right away on a screen.
