ALL DAY Commercial Improv Intensive with Barry Shapiro, CD, Herman & Lipson Casting

10:00 am - 10am-5pm. After a HUGE success - we are bringing back Barry's ALL DAY IMPROV INTENSIVE! With Barry's other classes always sold-out, you'll need to be fast to get in on this one! As every savvy commercial actor knows, many auditions are strictly improvised and in order to BOOK, you need to have this skill set down pat! Barry is an expert teacher of these kinds of auditions where there is either no copy at all or the script is partly or entirely improvised. This intensive will focus on Improv as it relates strictly to commercials. You'll learn to mime eating, talking and reacting in a restaurant scene; activities thrown at you "in the moment"; taking a script and putting it into your own words; improvising dialogue before the written script starts and after it ends; creating an instant character fully realized at a moment's notice and much more! Barry has been a commercial CD for over 25 years and his experience translates to you feeling comfortable in these kinds of auditions so that you BOOK them!
