INTRODUCTION TO ACTING
For those wanting to get their feet wet before taking a complete plunge. This taster will give you the core understanding of the fundamental skills any performer needs, from use of body, voice, subtext, playing an objective, embodying a character and preparing yourself to enter the professional world of acting (If that's what you desire by the end of this workshop).
INTRODUCTION TO PLAYWRITING
Have you always wanted to write, but never quite had the courage or discipline to begin? In this workshop you shall gain the confidence and knowledge to be able to finally put pen to paper.....Or fingers to keys as is more common........
THE STANISLAVSKI SYSTEM
You shall be given the necessary toolkit to build and create a believable, three-dimensional character, following the acting methods which later led to what we now know as 'Method Acting'.
IMPROVISATION & AUDITION PREPARATION
This workshop is designed to increase your improvisational ability and confidence in the audition process. There will be various games and exercises based around building your sharpness on stage and you shall get to perform in a simulated audition scenario, which will include sight reading and a mock monologue performance.
ACTING
If you would like more of a personalised service, than private tuition is available in any of the areas highlighted in the before column. We would travel to your residence or a place which you deem to be most comfortable and work with you one-on-one.We can focus in on specific elements of your performance and areas of your acting ability which you would like to improve upon.
You will gained detailed and extensive performance feedback to a degree level and we can even help you to improve your media marketability, i.e. how to best attract an agent if you are seeking one and how to write the perfect cover letter/application to that casting director to ensure you secure an audition.
WRITING
Private tuition can also be given in the area of creative writing. Perhaps you have written the first draft of a play/script and desperately need an objective eye to give you feedback and constructive criticism to aid you in the redrafting process. This feedback can be given face to face, over skype or via email. Or maybe you need assistance with laying the creative foundations for you to build upon.

Recommendations

Mr. Darrel Draper offered a lot of help and guidance to me as a script supervisor last year. His detailed, insightful advise helped me improve my film script. I really appreciated his patience and expertise. I would like to highly recommend Mr. Darrel Draper as a qualified private tutor within this site.
Darrel has given me invaluable script advice on several writing projects, one if which is being produced for the 2019 Camden Fringe. He has also directed me in a new writing night which was very well received.
Darrel taught as an hourly paid cover teacher for a Level 2 full time course at Havering College of Further & Higher Education
Darrel has meticulous planning and high expectations of students.Darrel is a creative script writer and script supervisor. I made a short suspense film called Memory Sketch and Darrel helped me a lot in polishing my script, especially in terms of the dialogue. His polished dialogue is very native and sounds nature, making the characters vivid. Our communication is very smooth. He could catch what I want to express very quickly and gave me feedback very soon. He also gave me lots of new ideas and thingings about the storyline, which definitely inspired me. He'll be an effective scriptwriting tutor!
Darrel has been instrumental since I first began acting and still plays an important part in my continuous development.
