Overview
Careers
In 1994, Tim directed To Be A Somebody, the defining series of Jimmy McGovern’s CRACKER. It memorably portrayed the murder of DC Bilborough (Christopher Ecclestone) by Albie Kinsella (Robert Carlyle). All Tim’s films feature atmospheric and economical storytelling; and their dramatic force comes from the quality and consistency of his actors’ performances.
The aim is for a group of ten directors to experience Tim’s approaches to acting and directing first hand, through a series of practical script-based exercises.
The London Film School's The Director and Actor Collaboration - Essential Techniques For Directors participants will alternately give and take direction; first working with each other, then with professional actors, who will join the group on day two.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- The actor's practical vocabulary: Goals, Aims, States of Mind, Realisations.
- Different kinds of acting methods and styles: How to recognise them, and how best to accommodate them.
- Getting an actor on board: The process, from the moment you meet (at a casting session; backstage at a theatre), to communicating the relationship you want.
- The protocols of rehearsal: Both 1-to-1 and with a group. What can be achieved in rehearsal, and what should wait until the shoot.
