Self Tape R&R (review & refine) ONLINE
April 13, 2020 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM
All class times are EST.
SELF TAPE R&R (review & refine) is a 3-hour intensive focused on evaluating and improving an actor’s self tape.
Limited to eight (8) online interactive Participants who tape a scene in advance, this live class views, discusses, and offers on-your-feet instruction and direction from Erica Arvold. Using craft tools, playful exercises, and the Arvold Warner 10-step preparation checklist, each taped scene is examined, explored, and embodied. Participants experience the performance pressure of being watched and directed – an integral part of sustaining a career in front of the camera.
A gallery of Observers witness Erica (using her directing skills) work a scene remotely, and gain an inside perspective to what a film professional looks for when evaluating a self-tape. Observation is a profound and necessary muscle in one’s craft toolkit. Self Tape R&R works this muscle specifically and consciously, providing a rare opportunity for actors, directors, writers, and other film artists to gain a deeper understanding and perspective of the craft.
Features of the class include:
- viewing and reviewing
- technical feedback
- playing with performance
- character specificity
- enhancing watchability
arvold.education focuses on both the philosophical and pragmatic aspects of being a film artist.
