Script Analysis Intensive
Day: TBD
Where: Online via Zoom
Who: Actors Of All Levels Welcome
Colleen’s Script Analysis Intensive is a practical jumping-off point for actors to dive into efficiently understanding TV/Film Scenes so they can make smart and personal choices in their auditions.
In today’s industry, actors have very little time with TV & Film material before they are expected to send in a well-crafted self-tape audition or do a live virtual audition with Casting.
Gone are the days when an actor might have a couple of weeks with sides and a script to develop their choices. And then have the opportunity to do multiple in-person auditions with casting and other production creatives giving them adjustments and insights during their audition process.
The expectation of modern actors is that they can take the information and material they have been given, understand what's happening, make discoveries, make choices, bring their point of view to it, and execute a standout self-tape in a very short amount of time. All without the benefit of time or in-person guidance along the way.
