Synopsis

Screenplays are blueprints for building visual stories. Do you often find yourself reading a film or tv scene and thinking “there’s not much here” or, on set, you asking yourself “why are they shooting it that way?” Our ability to quickly and effectively analyse a scene prior to making specific acting choices ensures we are telling the same story as our collaborators. Here is an opportunity to work with US actors and acting coaches Welker White and Damian Young on screenplay analysis. Please note: This event will take place from 10-11.30am Australian Eastern Standard Time (NSW/VIC/QLD/TAS) and 12-1.30pm NZ time.
