About the event
Open to anyone who's started working with Steph and who's wanting to work with Steph.
How will it work?
- We’ll read through the scene in pairs
- You’ll go away and do your text analysis (you could do one of the characters or both, it’s up to you).
- You’ll receive my text analysis (not to show you what’s right but simply as a reference point)
- We’ll come together, read the scene again and discuss / Q&A
- Repeat with four scripts in total.
A text analysis should work for you. With you even. It should be so easy it doesn’t require stress, worry or a struggle.
It should start in the head and then drop down into the body - how do we help it drop into the body so it's not a load of info swimming in your head?
Join us as we work through a beautiful 3 step text analysis based on the work of Sandford Meisner.
As part of this process, we’ll also look at preparation, free writing starting points and how a text analysis will follow on from one scene into the next.
