SITCOMS continue to be BACK in a Major way. Pilot Season is coming up quickly and there’s golden opportunity to get ready for the opportunities – you don’t need to be in LA to get noticed!
Be prepared. Don’t let the feedback “not funny” be your feedback.
The COMEDY Weekend Intensive prepares actors for their comedy tapings and
auditions working from sides culled from the most recent comedy pilot which
will be given in advance. All auditions will be taped and made available on
line. As well as investigating approach to comedy, actors will also explore
comedy archetypes and the perfect comic character to suit their specific
branding.
Comedy takes hard work. Off book, playing off the partner, living the
emotional circumstances, and finding the moments AREN’T enough. Because
great comedy doesn’t only come from great acting. Funny work comes from
well-educated acting. Know comedic scene analysis. Absorb comic scene
structure. Play the rules of comedic analysis (the rule of threes, the
hard-switch, and the play-against). Knowledge and practice give the comedic
actor the key to great funny acting: to let go and let the moments be
spontaneous.right on cue.
And…oh, yeah…timing.
