WEEK 1

Download the app "Stop Motion" (free) on your phone.  Create a story with live or inanimate objects.  

​

WEEK 2

Play the "Only Questions" improvisation game with a friend or family member.  Give a scenario for the both of you.  Be careful to not ask the same questions over an over.  How many different style of questions can you ask to get what you want?

​

WEEK 3

"What's this object?"  Try and give an object of your choosing a different purpose.  This is another improvisation game.  Example:  In Little Mermaid, the fork was not used for eating, but for brushing hair.  If you would like to see this in action, feel free to check out the video below.

WEEK 4

The art of mime and pantomime.  I have had the pleasure to work with a well known mime artist, Bill Bowers.  Below is a video of him giving a lesson on the fundamentals of this craft.  Watch and try pantomime in the comfort of your own home.
