What will we cover in this masterclass?
Ever watched a video and thought “I could voice some of those characters!”?
Or wondered what it would be like to be an actor in a fantasy world?
Or maybe you’d just like to NOT have to learn lines, but still create some drama magic?
Find out about all of this (and more!) in a fun, practical 90 minute workshop.
This is an introduction into the world of video game acting: creating characters with no set, no costumes, no make-up, no lights.
Nothing but your imagination, some words and your voice!
Please remember to wear clothes you can move in.
