Directing The Actor II

(2 Credits)

Directing the Actor II aims to deepen our understanding of how to support the actor and their process so that they are empowered to collaborate with directors and give present, inspired and truthful performances in service of the story. For six weeks, students will collaborate with members of the Grad Acting program on scenes that will be shot in class. Directing students will be encouraged to use the class as an opportunity to let go of the need for predetermined outcomes and lean into the spirit of collaboration and discovery with fellow classmates and actors.
