Teaching at NYU Graduate Film – Directing Actors

IMG_5729

You may have noticed my posting has eased up a bit this month. My apologies.

When September came around I resumed my normal duties teaching a few editing courses in the undergraduate film department at NYU.

Additionally, this year I was asked to join the graduate film department teaching a “Directing Actors” class for the 2nd year directing students. Check out who else I’m joining this year on the faculty here.

Soooo…. with my writing on the feature, life and other work I’ve been a bit swamped.

I’m really enjoying all the teaching though. It always forces me to reexamine what I think I know when I have to explain it to someone else.

The directing actors course is especially gratifying because for me acting is where this life of storytelling began… It’s really wonderful to combine the two disciplines I love the most – Acting and Directing.

Everything is a Remix

This video by Rob Wilson was inspired by Everything Is a Remix, a video essay series created by Kirby Ferguson.

“Remixing is a folk art but the techniques involved — collecting material, combining it, transforming it — are the same ones used at any level of creation. You could even say that everything is a remix.”
