CAMERA PERFORMANCE WORKSHOP
A 10-Day Intensive in Truthful Screen Performance

**Before you are an actor, you are a human being.** And the human in you with all your scars, joys, instincts, sensitivities, and contradictions is your greatest instrument.

Learn to perform authentically on camera by reclaiming your ability to **feel, experience, connect, listen, and respond.** Move beyond pretending and step into the raw, uncensored flow of life.

To perform on camera is not to hide behind technique, but to reveal universal truths of the human condition through your own humanity.

This 10-day intensive is for actors who want to **stop performing emotions and start living truthfully under imaginary circumstances.**

Rooted in the principles of **Anti Acting**, this training reconnects you with your humanity, awareness, and truthful behavior before technique. The work moves from **the instrument (you), to the text, to character, and finally to real camera and professional application.**

**Indicating and Being.**
**Showing Emotion and Having Emotion.**
**Performing and Living Truthfully.**

You understand your instrument, recognize your patterns, and learn how to tune yourself for different characters and circumstances.

You leave with **clarity, process, and quiet confidence** not hope, not luck, and not dependence on inspiration.

### THE GOAL

**To make truthful behavior your default response even when the camera is watching.**
