Most directors will demand a result before giving you time to explore
and locate the truth in what you are doing and repeatedly working this
way can erode your ability to do authentic work.
=20
You must have a strong sense of truth to do authentic work as an actor.
=20
This workshop will focus on how to locate and begin to strengthen your
sense of truth so that you can rely upon instinct when working in film,
TV and on stage. Improvisational exercises and work will be included in
this exciting workshop.

About the Instructor:
Victor D'Altorio is a teacher, director, and actor. From 1990-98 he was
one of Chicago's most respected, most recommended acting teachers at The
Actors' Center, the Windy City's best known professional training
program. From 98-02 he had his own private studio in Los Angeles, where
he taught class and privately coached many actors for TV and film. He
was the L.A. Weekly Critics' Theatre Director of the Year for 2000, and
was asked by L.A. County to adapt his work with actors for teens at high
risk for HIV infection for an innovative California state funded program
to educate youth in better, more truth-centered communication skills. He
is a graduate of Northwestern University, and also of the William Esper
Studio, NYC, where he completed the formal, 2-year Meisner work, which
is the basis for his teaching.

"Victor guides the actor right to the truth, and to a very specific
truth,
which is really rare. He creates an atmosphere of total safety.
Sometimes I wanted to smack him on the head when he directed me!
He insists that every moment be honest, specific, and fully alive.
I absolutely loved working with him."

"Victor first directed me in an outrageous comedy off-Broadway called
Talking Minks, and he is, easily, one of the best directors I've worked
with. I recommended to a young actor on "The West Wing" that he take
Victor's acting class in L.A, and the change in his work after only a
few months was astonishing. His tendency to dramatize was gone and his
sense of truth and commitment to the moment much, much stronger. He had
more confidence, more presence, more charisma--which can't be taught, of
course--but it emerged with the stronger sense of self he developed
under Vic's tutelage."
