AMERICAN ACCENT TRAINING and CHARACTER MOVEMENT
Two new courses at the FLANDERS ACTING STUDIO
with CHRISTOPHER MORRISON
CHARACTER MOVEMENT - illuminates acting by teaching students how to make physical choices that lead to grounded emotional moments. Pulling on techniques from Viewpoints, Improvisation, Image Work, Dance, Theater and Film this class is guaranteed to take an actor to the next level in their work wether they are just beginning their training or are working professionals.
AMERICAN ACCENT TRAINING - for non-native English speaking actors who would like to facilitate a flat, standard American accent on camera. This class will focus both on on-camera performance and voice/accent training. Any actor wishing to get more work in English, or to transition to the American market will benefit from this class.
CHRISTOPHER MORRISON is a director-writer-actor, has worked on over 100 films and theatrical productions and is a distributed film-maker, as well as a story editor and script consultant for Hollywood. He has worked with Emily Deschanel, Dan Folger, Lindsey Lohan, Keith David, Zakes Mokae, and Diane Ladd.
Christopher wrote and directed the award-winning short film, “...less than kind”, which premiered out of competition at the Cannes Film Festival and is distributed by OUAT! Media. He has been commissioned for seven screenplays, multiple shorts, and plays.
In his theater career he has worked with Cirque du Soleil, The Berkeley Repertory Theatre and The Huntington Theatre Company. He is co-founder of Impact Theatre in Berkeley, California, now in its twentieth season. His plays have been produced in Northern California; Chicago; and Melbourne. His directing has been called “A brave move towards a different style of theatre,” and Cirque du Soleil called him “A huge asset to the creative process.” His works have appeared in over 15 festivals on three continents.
Now living in the heart of Europe, his career continues already having been commissioned for three more features, given notes to a tentpole Belga Films project, and had a short film screen at the BIFFF film festival.
In January 2017, CHRISTOPHER will be directing the feature film, “Joanne”, in Belgium.
His students can be seen television and film worldwide, on tour, on Broadway, as well as Juilliard, L'École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq, The California School for the Arts and NYU Tisch, just to name a few.
