Here are some key ideas that should serve as an indication of my approach to ADULT actor training. Training for other age groups is also detailed: MIND - An actor needs to know how a dramatic composition works before attempting to place him or herself into that work. This should serve to jump-start the actor's journey towards understanding the play and playing a character successfully. Studying the basics of both Constantin Stanislavski & Sanford Meisner early on in training will allow you to develop a logical, systematic approach to the psychological aspects of developing a role. BODY - Actors need to convey much information through movement and gesture and must possess a developed understanding of the importance that every curve and angle within their movement takes on. Movement and gesture can be considered in a number of ways. What is most important, however, is that the actor strives to develop relaxed, controlled, expressive movement. VOICE - An actor’s voice needs to be versatile as it must communicate a range of emotions and thoughts. Pause, pitch (the height or depth of the voice), pace (the rate at which we speak), power, inflection & tone colour make up the palette from which the actor makes his or her vocal choices. CRAFT & PROFESSIONALISM - There are so many questions - and answers - that don't fall fully within the headings of Mind, Body & Voice. An actor's craft is something slightly apart from the art of the actor, but it still needs to be an integral part of the actor's training. COACHING FOR CHILDREN & TEENS - Acting & Speech activities really help children & teens to develop a whole range of life skills, and that setting aside time to develop your child's reading, speaking, social, creative & critical thinking skills is systematically increasing his or her life potential. COACHING FOR 'SPEECH COMMUNICATION FOR BUSINESS' - Developing advanced Speech Communication skills systematically increases personal effectiveness & business potential.
