I signed up for an introductory acting class which started last week. Its actually quite a challenge for me given my typically reserved nature, but I’m open to ways of improving my art. After all, “an animator is an actor with a pencil” so goes the saying, right? Anyway, the course is eight sessions long, two evenings per week. There’s quite a lot of stuff covered each lesson, and we run through a few exercises during those few hours, judging by how the pace has been set so far. I gotta admit I really enjoyed that first lesson, but had to miss the second due to a major virus outbreak at home. Hopefully I’ll be back for the next one on Monday. There’s also quite a bit of homework to be done between classes, and I’m already falling behind. OK that’s it for now. I’m off to pick an animal and write about it in my actor’s journal!
