Object Work Workshop w/ Hillary Yonce

Imagine watching a movie where someone stands still and talks the whole time. Not very engaging, right? Similarly, improv without object work falls flat, leaving scenes less engaging and dynamic.

In the world of improv, object work can transform a scene. It makes a scene more engaging to watch, informs the improvisor's movements, and can even help drive the Game.

This workshop will focus on:

• Breaking the habit of a "talking heads" scene.
• Creating more believable object work
• Initiationing with object work
• Using object work to explore your Base Reality
• Using object work to rest the Game
• Better object work habits

Prerequisites: Students are required to have taken Improv 101 or equivalent. If you have any questions about this policy, you may contact us here.
