Acting for Camera – Accessing Emotions
COURSE DESCRIPTION
The development of the emotional self is the key to unlocking truthful performance. Knowing how we are shaped by our life experiences and understanding their role in our psychological development, enables the actor to harness emotional truth and deliver dynamic performances on screen.
