V: An Actor's Guide to Verticals - SUN DAY

When it comes to verticals — a new form of storytelling that has exploded onto the scene — the orientation of the camera is only the beginning of what sets them apart from more traditional TV and film work. In this workshop, students will learn from veteran vertical director Madison Hatfield (ReelShort, GoodShort, Shortswave) not only how to shape your craft to audition for vertical projects but also what to expect on a vertical set.

Participants will receive scene options one week before to prepare. Auditors will be able to ask questions during the Q&A.
