The approach of this class is very hands on and is not at a beginner level, but beginners are encouraged to join the class.

Session 1 - The students will be introduced to some Meisner techniques as well as employ some Judith Weston concepts. There will be a lot of improvisation used during the class in order to practice some of the theory. Camera technique will be covered. Scenes will be video taped and observed later for healthy critique. Script sides will be assigned and actors will be paired with others to work both in class and for the next class.

Session 2 - Students will continue to work with Meisner and Weston techniques as well as employing a good bit of improvisation. Students will showcase their homework scenes for the class and work on adjustments given by the instructor. The class will further refine its camera technique as well as taping and reviewing of scenes. New scenes will be assigned for class work and homework.

Session 3 - Students will continue working on higher level Meisner and Weston techniques via the use of scripted and improvised scenes. Students will showcase their homework scenes for the class and work on adjustments given by the instructor. The class will continue working on the nuances of acting for the camera via video taping scenes and analyzing them later. New scenes will be assigned for class work and homework. Working with the students, the instructor will choose which scene they will be preparing for the actors' showcase filming. The scenes will be filmed in high definition!

Session 4 - Students will work on refining their showcase scenes and eventually shoot them during the course of the day. The class will continue to work on the Meisner and Weston techniques.

Session 5 - the Sunscreen Film Fest - The actors will have their scenes screened at the festival. This will be a time to invite family and friends to see the work they have done in class. The actors will do a Q&A after each scene has screened. We will have a guest panelist from the actor's track there to comment on and evaluate the work of each film. Each actor will receive a DVD of the classes' scenes.
