Screenplays and Television scripts 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\, asking yourself “why are they shooting it that way?” Our ability to quickly and effectively analyze a scene prior to making specific acting choices ensures we are telling the same story as our collaborators. Damian will guide participants in how to more readily identify genre\, story\, tone\, environment\, and emotional stakes of a scene. He will share distinct scenes from a variety of filmed material. Sessions run Thursdays\, 7:00pm-9:00pm\, on Zoom.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Damian Young\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nDamian Young is an actor and teacher.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first 90 minutes of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe second 90 minutes will be devoted to sharing\, and reading. Each week\, three people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30 minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing\, but would like to join for the second half of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome. Sessions run Wednesday mornings from 10am-1pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.

Screenplays and Television scripts 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\, asking yourself “why are they shooting it that way?” Our ability to quickly and effectively analyze a scene prior to making specific acting choices ensures we are telling the same story as our collaborators. Damian will guide participants in how to more readily identify genre\, story\, tone\, environment\, and emotional stakes of a scene. He will share distinct scenes from a variety of filmed material. Sessions run Thursdays\, 7:00pm-9:00pm\, on Zoom.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Damian Young\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nDamian Young is an actor and teacher.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first 90 minutes of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe second 90 minutes will be devoted to sharing\, and reading. Each week\, three people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30 minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing\, but would like to join for the second half of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome.

In each of the sessions\, there will be a quick (optional) check in at the beginning. You can feel free to share an intention for the time (or not.) And then work\, cameras on or off. Then reconvene around 10:45am to report back or check out\, which is also optional. Please come and go as you wish and feel free to use the time and accountability in the way that best serves your artistic purposes.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first 90 minutes of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe second 90 minutes will be devoted to sharing\, and reading. Each week\, three people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30 minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs.

Midori will guide participants in practicing and developing a personal and imagistic connection to the voice—encouraging clarity of thought\, vocal freedom\, and emotional connection in spoken communication. This is explored through the Linklater Voice Progression of exercises\, which leads from physical awareness (locating tension and releasing it)\, to the awareness of natural breathing\, the experience of sound in the head and body (building resonance)\, the releasing of tension\, and the development of resonating power. The goal is to develop a voice that is in direct contact with emotional impulse\, shaped by the intellect but not restricted by it. Sessions run Tuesdays\, 2:30pm-5:30pm. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Midori Nakamura\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nMidori Nakamura is a Brooklyn-based teaching artist and Designated Linklater Voice Teacher.

Leigh will work with company members on scenes from any 20th- or 21st century play of their choosing. Every scene will work each week\, beginning with a first encounter with the text and a new approach to the memorization process. Throughout\, Leigh will offer insights to support actors in being present\, listening\, trusting connection\, and allowing a great story to emerge\, with the primary aim that participants leave knowing themselves better as artists. Sessions run 10am-3pm. \nEnrollment is limited to 14 actors. You can sign up either together with a scene partner or as an individual to be paired with another individual. Participants are strongly encouraged to choose material that is new to them\, and neither rehearse nor memorize before the first session. If you prefer\, Leigh can assign you material or offer suggestions. Occasional conflicts can be accommodated. \nIf you are looking for a scene partner\, you may post in the comments thread\, or you can also find contact information for all members in the member directory.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Leigh Kilton-Smith\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nFor 35 years\, Leigh Kilton-Smith has maintained a balance between classroom work at her studio in Los Angeles\, and being an in-demand acting coach on sets around the world. \nHer work is reflected in dozens of award-winning projects\, including Oppenheimer\, Elvis\, Vengeance\, Manchester by the Sea\, White Lotus\, Burlesque\, Anne Boleyn\, Murder Mystery\, Queen & Slim\, Iron Man\, Aladdin\, White Boy Rick\, and the forthcoming True Detective directed by Issa Lopes\, Doug Liman’s The Instigator\, Cary Fukunaga’s Masters of the Air\, and Jamie Lloyd’s West End revival of Sunset Boulevard\, starring Nicole Scherzinger.

Novak\, Jodie Turner-Smith\, Lukas Gage\, Austin Butler\, Guy Ritchie\, Casey Affleck\, Jennifer Aniston\, Kathryn Hahn\, John Leguizamo\, Tony Goldwyn\, Gabrielle Union\, Desi Lydic\, Zac Efron\, Diane Lane\, and Sam Rockwell. \nDirectors and actors alike have sought her input. According to Leigh\, ”Any creative who is confident enough in their own craft that they willingly welcome an opinion not their own\, is my kind of visionary.” \nLeigh says\, “I am not the right teacher for everyone… I’d say the one thing that sets me apart is that I have spent an enormous amount of time in the trenches\, crafting performances in real time\, on set… I love Actors and I love my job.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text] \nRegister Now\n[/vc_column_text]\n \n Registration Type*\n \n \n Register with a Scene Partner\n \n \n \n Register Individually\, Pair Me with Someone\n Your Name*Your Email*\n \n Scene Partner NameScene Partner Email\n \n Scene (Play\, Characters\, Scene)Not required to sign up.

Over six weeks\, participants will investigate the body as a vehicle for deep transformation\, a container of emotional experience\, and an elegant tool in articulation. Erica will begin with physical training practices based on the work of Jerzy Grotowski to awaken and deepen an already-innate connection to mind\, heart\, and body integration. Erica will guide participants in expanding their emotional life through full-body training\, working with image as a source and tool\, and unpacking innate patterns or habits in the body. We will parse out experience\, observations\, and judgements within the work\, seeing how the body can be a roadmap towards specific choices in our work.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first 90 minutes of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe second 90 minutes will be devoted to sharing\, and reading. Each week\, three people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30 minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing\, but would like to join for the second half of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome. Sessions run Wednesday mornings from 10am-1pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.

Midori will guide participants in practicing and developing a personal and imagistic connection to the voice—encouraging clarity of thought\, vocal freedom\, and emotional connection in spoken communication. This is explored through the Linklater Voice Progression of exercises\, which leads from physical awareness (locating tension and releasing it)\, to the awareness of natural breathing\, the experience of sound in the head and body (building resonance)\, the releasing of tension\, and the development of resonating power. The goal is to develop a voice that is in direct contact with emotional impulse\, shaped by the intellect but not restricted by it.

Leigh will work with company members on scenes from any 20th- or 21st century play of their choosing. Every scene will work each week\, beginning with a first encounter with the text and a new approach to the memorization process. Throughout\, Leigh will offer insights to support actors in being present\, listening\, trusting connection\, and allowing a great story to emerge\, with the primary aim that participants leave knowing themselves better as artists. Sessions run 10am-3pm. \nEnrollment is limited to 14 actors. You can sign up either together with a scene partner or as an individual to be paired with another individual. Participants are strongly encouraged to choose material that is new to them\, and neither rehearse nor memorize before the first session. If you prefer\, Leigh can assign you material or offer suggestions. Occasional conflicts can be accommodated. \nIf you are looking for a scene partner\, you may post in the comments thread\, or you can also find contact information for all members in the member directory.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Leigh Kilton-Smith\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nFor 35 years\, Leigh Kilton-Smith has maintained a balance between classroom work at her studio in Los Angeles\, and being an in-demand acting coach on sets around the world. \nHer work is reflected in dozens of award-winning projects\, including Oppenheimer\, Elvis\, Vengeance\, Manchester by the Sea\, White Lotus\, Burlesque\, Anne Boleyn\, Murder Mystery\, Queen & Slim\, Iron Man\, Aladdin\, White Boy Rick\, and the forthcoming True Detective directed by Issa Lopes\, Doug Liman’s The Instigator\, Cary Fukunaga’s Masters of the Air\, and Jamie Lloyd’s West End revival of Sunset Boulevard\, starring Nicole Scherzinger.

Novak\, Jodie Turner-Smith\, Lukas Gage\, Austin Butler\, Guy Ritchie\, Casey Affleck\, Jennifer Aniston\, Kathryn Hahn\, John Leguizamo\, Tony Goldwyn\, Gabrielle Union\, Desi Lydic\, Zac Efron\, Diane Lane\, and Sam Rockwell. \nDirectors and actors alike have sought her input. According to Leigh\, ”Any creative who is confident enough in their own craft that they willingly welcome an opinion not their own\, is my kind of visionary.” \nLeigh says\, “I am not the right teacher for everyone… I’d say the one thing that sets me apart is that I have spent an enormous amount of time in the trenches\, crafting performances in real time\, on set… I love Actors and I love my job.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text] \nRegister Now\n[/vc_column_text]\n \n Registration Type*\n \n \n Register with a Scene Partner\n \n \n \n Register Individually\, Pair Me with Someone\n Your Name*Your Email*\n \n Scene Partner NameScene Partner Email\n \n Scene (Play\, Characters\, Scene)Not required to sign up.

In each of the sessions\, there will be a quick (optional) check in at the beginning. You can feel free to share an intention for the time (or not.) And then work\, cameras on or off. Then reconvene around 10:45am to report back or check out\, which is also optional. Please come and go as you wish and feel free to use the time and accountability in the way that best serves your artistic purposes.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.

Over six weeks\, participants will investigate the body as a vehicle for deep transformation\, a container of emotional experience\, and an elegant tool in articulation. Erica will begin with physical training practices based on the work of Jerzy Grotowski to awaken and deepen an already-innate connection to mind\, heart\, and body integration. Erica will guide participants in expanding their emotional life through full-body training\, working with image as a source and tool\, and unpacking innate patterns or habits in the body. We will parse out experience\, observations\, and judgements within the work\, seeing how the body can be a roadmap towards specific choices in our work. Sessions run Thursday mornings from 10am-1pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Erica Fae\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Writer\, director\, performer\, and teacher Erica Fae brings radical stories from history to stage and screen.
