What will this class teach me?
It is empowering to possess the tools necessary to rehearse a role.
So often, when an actor is fortunate to be working, he or she finds that they are on their own to understand the part. It is, ultimately, the responsibility of the actor to make deeply personal choices that will truthfully reveal the character to an audience. For better or worse, we can’t rely on others to "figure the part out" and deliver our performance.
Directors expect you show up on set "ready to go" with a completely realized character.
When you are hired, how would you use the available rehearsal time to flesh out the role? Would you know how to personalize the character's objective? What choices help you achieve that objective?
In this fast-paced world, rehearsals are almost non-existent. You frequently hear smart directors say that "it's all in the casting". They hire skilled, competent actors who can walk onto the set and deliver the performance. It's expected that everyone knows their jobs, from the grips, to the cameramen, to the actors.
The Audition.
You get “The Call” -- you have an audition. What are you going to do? This class gives you a way of working that you can apply to any auditioning situation. A way of working that’s much more revealing and moving and will distinguish you in the casting office. Successful auditioning is more than memorizing lines.
The actor should always be challenged, by himself as well as a teacher.
In this class, actors get the opportunity to explore all of the possibilities in the work. Actors are exposed to a wide range of material to learn and experience tools that they then own. Students get to learn from Eddie’s many years of study and professional experience.
