THE HERO'S JOURNEY with Christianne Hirt
This 3 day intensive workshop focuses on Actor's crafting a Character's journey from a film perspective. Because most films are shot out of chronological sequence, coupled with the fact that the performance is the nucleus of the Story, it is vital that the Actor is skilled in serving the Story by creating a comprehensive and emotionally active through-line.
The Hero's Journey, while based on Three Act Structure, offers so much more. It is an odyssey of exploring, Character, Story Structure, Myth and Archetype-the foundation of all great films and film acting. By understanding and applying The Hero's Journey, actors will gain a profoundly deeper ability to make pivotal choices that not only humanize a Character but drive the story forward in emotionally compelling ways.
Over these three days we will delve into the heart and soul of the Hero's Journey, whereby each actor will receive selected scenes as well as the screenplay from which they are derived. Each scene is specific to major turning points in the Story and replete in Character and Archetype.
As a teacher, I truly love imparting this information. I am as passionate about Story as I am about the Craft of Acting and I know that this workshop will be extremely worthwhile.
The workshop requires a great deal of preparation work on the part of both the actor and instructor, therefore early registration is essential. Actors must have read the entire screenplay several times. Preparation and information are key to getting the utmost benefit from the process. Highly committed students only please.
