A 5-session Acting Masterclass with Nelson Chia
Acting Techniques:
Learn essential techniques in acting from Acting Coach, award-winning Director and Actor, Nelson Chia, through the study and performance of scenes from selected plays. This masterclass is designed for aspiring actors who are eager to learn and mid-career actors who want to refresh their knowledge.
Class Structure:
The class will be a combination of performance and observation. Each participant will be assigned roles and given 2 or 3 short excerpts of scripts from contemporary and modern classics to prepare before the class. The preparation process will be made easier with written pointers provided to help with the learning process. During the class, participants will work in pairs to perform these scenes (about 10 mins each) while the rest of the class observes. Nelson Chia will provide direction and share essential techniques needed for an effective performance.
What You’ll Learn:
Participants will be exposed to various techniques in areas such as action, movement, rhythm, focus, characterization, voice, and speech, etc. You'll learn how to apply these techniques to create an effective performance and what to take note of when approaching a scene.
Language:
The class will be conducted in English, but participants may request to perform in Mandarin if there is a suitable pairing.
