IMPROV TECHNIQUE FOR ON CAMERA ACTING
In this six week class Lauren McGibbon (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Trial & Error, Scaredy Cats) combines her twenty plus years experience as an improvisor and actor to guide students in to delivering on-camera performances that are connected, committed and completely present in the moment.
The camera catches everything, including being “stuck in your own head”. Through weekly improv based rehearsal exercises and scripts that bring humour to the darker parts of life, students get insight into what the industry means when they say “less is more” and “keep it grounded the tone is very real”.

“Lauren McGibbon is one of those rare comedic actors who makes you laugh before she even says a word. The great news for actors is she’s taken her brilliance into teaching. Not only is Lauren hilarious, but her depth and emotional intelligence is a gift to anyone learning how to find their inner artist.”
