Welcome to another themed episode drawing upon the advice and counsel of various guests on a single topic. This week's topic: Acting careers – stage and screen.
Four multi-talented and experienced performers share with Marvin and Fred their own career stories and tips for navigating the tumultuous rapids of an acting career.
Amy Shostak is a talented theatre artist whose improv skills in performance and directing have taken her to festivals and live special events all around the world. She also performs in the television series Tiny Plastic Men and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s radio series The Irrelevant Show. Amy describes why many professionals could benefit from improv workshops to learn about and sharpen their own abilities in collaborative work situations.
Brothers Dann and Dave Florek join Marvin and Fred in Los Angeles to discuss the similarities and differences in technique required for performing on stage and on screen. Valuable tips emerge! Check their track records on imdb.com. The Florek Brothers’ lists of engagements in film and television alone read like the history of screen media over the last 40 years!
Not many performers celebrate 25 years in the business at the ripe old age of 31! Vancouver-based actor and musician Travis Turner describes his formal training at the Langara College Film Arts program and his decision to form a company to benefit more from the “business” side of show business.
For more information on the Langara College Film Arts program, listen to Episode 084 of our podcast with Garwin Sanford, the Head of Film Arts.
