IN PERSON: As actors, we have an instrument that we must keep in tune and continue to master. In a scene study, actors take a specific scene and work on it in front of an acting instructor or a group of peers. The goal is to receive specific constructive feedback that helps the actor improve. Students should walk away with an understanding of how to craft the arc of a scene, and they will get to practice creating different characters. Timing, focus and taking direction are all part of a scene study. For the first class, students will be asked to have a prepared monologue to present. Subsequent classes will focus on partnered scene work in which students will pair up in order to work on a scene together — collaborating to find a scene that interests both of them. Students will work on that scene both in and out of class, focusing on character building, taking direction and fleshing out the scene. The final class will allow students to showcase the work they have done with a live performance. | Active Skill Learning.
