1 event,Zoom Workshop DAMIAN YOUNG: Screenplay Analysis Two Weekday Evenings Dates & Times Monday, February 20, 2023 – 7:00pm-9:00pm Tuesday, February 21, 2023 – 7:00pm-9:00pm Online on Zoom This workshop is open to all company members to attend. About the Workshop Actor, teacher, and co-founder of The Moving Frame, Damian Young, returns to The Actors Center in February for two Zoom sessions devoted to Screenplay Analysis. 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 four distinct scenes from a variety of filmed material. Sessions run Monday and Tuesday, 7:00pm-9:00pm. About Damian Young Damian Young is a career actor with over 100 credited film and television appearances. His work spans the films of Hal Hartley and cult favorite Nickelodeon’s Pete and Pete, to roles in films such as Birdman, Catfight, Wonderstruck, and I Care a Lot. He was a series regular on The Comeback and Ozark, and has recurred on House of Cards, Homeland, and others. Damian has worked extensively in theatre, both on and off-Broadway, as well as regionally.

You can feel free to share an intention for the time (or not.) And then work, cameras on or off. Then reconvene around 10:50am 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. Sessions this month will take place Feb. 24, March 3, 10 and 17. RSVP with Rebecca for the Zoom link and join us.
