Service Description
As a foundational skill, students are strongly recommended to take Script Analysis before beginning on-camera training. Through the study and analysis of award-winning screenplays, students will: ~learn how to determine the four key elements in a script. ~strengthen their ability to build relationships with directors and writers through a deeper commitment to the story and how the actor's character contributes to it. ~develop critical thinking and inquiry skills so they can ask insightful, relevant questions at auditions, callbacks, and the table read. ~apply their newfound skills to sides. We will also examine non-award winning scripts where the four key elements are more challenging to determine, and how actors can use script analysis skills when they only have access to audition sides. Class will NOT meet on Memorial Day. Bronwen Carson is an award-winning writer and generative director.
