You have acting instincts, don't you!
Which direction do they point you in? Do they have a bias? How do you exploit them? How do you modify them? Know your strengths?
Understanding how acting process works is the first step. Knowing how your process works is the next step. A correct diagnosis of any problem is the straightest pathway to fixing it. Understanding and celebrating your strengths is essential.
Then take your performance to NEW HEIGHTS.

LEARN TO GENERATE PERFORMANCES THAT ARE CREATIVELY PLAYFUL and CONVINCINGLY REAL
Explore techniques that have been 35 years in development. They bring a new clarity and functionality to acting technique.
Explore techniques that not only effectively deliver creative choices for the actor but also enable you to measure the chances of success.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
- Clear and logical explanations work for you
- An acting adventure is always fun
- You love being involved with the development of new ideas
- Understanding more about the actors and directors skill is your passion
- Feel you often fall into the same traps
- Often aren't clear about your choices so you just wing it.
IF YOU DON’T HAVE THESE SKILLS …
- rather than being relaxed at tackling new ideas you will be stressed
- you could restrict your openness to new processes
- applying yourself to unusual tasks will be challenging
- making the obvious choice will become a more regular trap
- you won't be confident about floating an unusual idea
- the same mistakes will continue to occur
ABOUT RICHARD...
Over his twenty-five year directing career Richard found that that there were many unusual behaviours that he would have to encourage actors to adopt for their character. One thing became quickly plain. No matter how odd the behaviour was there was always a conscious or unconscious reason driving it. Everything happened for a reason.
Working out how and why unusual behaviours occurred was fascinating. Then learning to translate that knowledge into acting technique was another fascinating challenge. He became very skilled at it.
Actors have to do the same thing. On some occasions they too are confronted by the unusual and have to start from scratch to work out a practical way to apply a new understanding to a performance.
This webinar will also therefore explore learning how to learn.
