Worked with an #acting#coaching client on two things just now. 1: playing with status in a scene and how that transforms the deliveries and relationships, 2: using the words as toys to explore what you're doing and finding unusual or at least not obvious/casual rhythms, pronunciations and emphasis. So cool finding new stuff we didn't know was there.
Just worked with an #acting#coaching client on role they're auditioning for soon. Finding who the characters are, how they move and react to the world was fun. Honing in on how they do what they do, including connect to the #characters in the #scenes helps build fun options.
This is “Ro Ro Wreck Your Bout.” For a few years I had the pleasure of being her soccer coach. She was one of the best players I’ve ever had on my teams.
She recently got into roller derby and invited me to see her bout. It was so awesome. She’s an absolute beast. A brutal jammer.
And this sport is a great confidence builder for girls. It’s a place where they can realize their power and personality. I’m a new fan.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on different #styles/tones. Different shows, time periods, directors, writers and more vastly change some of the how we do what we do in a scene, and experimenting with that in general and adapting our work to it in specific is valuable. It was so cool discovering how doing some material in two different director's styles shifted things.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on a scene shooting soon, and among other things we played with knowing what your character is after while simultaneously not believing the other characters are being totally honest with what they're saying. Cool how perception and intention can interplay.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on material they're going to play, and explored how it can go viscerally. How much space you take up and how hard you metaphorically push the other characters can transform how you do what you do.
I've had the idea of offering "product design review office hours" for years now. Pay $price to spend an hour discussing your project with a ✨real designer✨ (me) and receive (hopefully) valuable feedback.
I believe there could be potential in this idea, but I'm unsure if people would actually be willing to pay for it.
Just worked with an #acting#coaching client on a role they're playing soon, and working lines to see what can be "said" beyond, within, in addition, with and through the words as written. Cool clarifying specific possibilities for how those moments go. Seeing them finding the performance and discovering was great.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on a role they’re going to play, and had them go too far, too broad with it. When we scaled it back down we found a whole new version it can be played with if they and the director want to. Nice to discover stuff.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on material for a callback (that I am very proud of them for getting), and got into the balance of doing what the audition was and still evolving and being ready to take notes and redirects. Nice to see them still finding new discoveries and deepening what they've already done too.
I've been very pleased with the live, online courses at CoachesRising. Now there's a new one!
Transforming Teams — a team coaching program that will take you right to the essence of how humans relate, giving you a powerful system to alchemize team tensions into innovation and effectiveness.
Coached an actor on a self-tape, and watching them find the character, and hone in on the how and what of them, was really cool. The specifics shined brighter and brighter on each take.
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on how different roles take up different amounts of space and how we maintain safety and control as an actor even as our characters can lose their self-control. Cool to see them pivot the objectives they pursued and played to change the space they take up.
Just worked with an #acting#coaching client on what broadly is their process working with new material, like what sequence to generally follow and what areas to address. Then had them do a piece with the direction to "have fun doing something unexpected" a couple times and found some really inspired new ways to do the material.
Die Sonne scheint, der Frühling bricht aus, aber statt Ideen für den Text wächst nur die Lust, die Arbeit aufzuschieben? Das ist die beste Zeit für einen Motivationsschub! Kommt in die nächste #Schreibsprechstunde mit @mischa und mir ! Am 13.3. um 15:00 Uhr
Worked with an #acting#coaching client on the intersection of concentration and finding your character in the other actor, from how they affect you. Facing uncertainty with courage is often a key piece of work that works well.
