Acting
Justin guides actors into discovering and creating a well-rounded life for their characters using the Stanislavski method (objective work, memory/emotional recall, remaining faithful to the given circumstances) and listening/reacting truthfully using the Meisner technique.
Movement
LABAN
"Laban movement analysis provides a rich overview of the scope of movement possibilities. These basic elements can be used for generating movement or for describing movement. They provide an inroad to understanding movement and for developing movement efficiency and expressiveness. Each human being combines these movement factors in his/her own unique way and organizes them to create phrases and relationships which reveal personal, artistic, or cultural style." (Peggy Hackney, Making Connections)
VIEWPOINTS
The viewpoints technique focuses the actors' awareness and creates a vocabulary for responding and acting with movement and gesture.
"In the Viewpoints work, nothing is invented -- everything is a response." -- Anne Bogart
Voice
incorporating the techniques of Catherine Fitzmaurice and Patsy Rodenburg, Justin focuses on the connection between the breath and voice. Students gain the tools to properly support their voice to ensure vocal health.
