It is such a beautiful thing to watch actors open up to one another. To truly listen and be affected by another actor, opens us up to the lense and allows the perfomance to be captured in an intimate way. It is precisely in those moments that we reveal ourselves in our work. To leave a piece of yourself in the room, or on the screen is the mark of a true actor/actress. Being that alive in front of the camera brings dimension to our work and the characters we inhabit.
Unilaterally I can say everyone is on their way in Thursday Eve.
It was wonderful to watch you stand up for yourselves and the truth of where you are coming from. Letting go of pleasing and what is "expected" is a huge step.
Some of the excercises where about allowing enourmous amounts of energy to flow. It takes a lot to stay relaxed and open when it gets really intense. Even when the experience is extreme pleasure.
Connecting and getting personal is a risk worth taking every time you work.
Technically everyone is getting the hang of bringing the text up to the experience. Trust comes with experience my friends.
As a teacher, artist and human being I was fully engaged with you all last night.
That is what I call a workout.
