WORKSHOP FORMAT
Following an introduction, participants will film their tape with Gemma under audition conditions (with the whole group present). We have superb equipment for the best learning experience. Gemma will give each participant notes allowing them the chance to do a second take. This will be followed by a short tea break and an informal Q&A.
Gemma will tailor sides to specifically suit you. Gemma would like participants to be as familiar with text as possible.
Your scenes will be recorded with broadcast quality equipment. Upon request, you have the option to receive your footage after the session for no extra cost!
{This workshop adheres to CDG guidelines and isn’t an audition}.
