Directing Actors (& Being Directed)

For the third summer, I was invited to be an Actor in Residence at Maine Media Workshops. This year the course was Directing Actors, taught by John David Coles. Students directed a cohort of actors in a variety of scenes over the course of five days - it was a whirlwind! Always a pleasure to learn so much about both sides of the camera and be inspired by teachers, classmates, and colleagues alike.

Below is an rehearsal run-through of a scene from Booksmart - appropriate that I happened to wear my one Ivy League sweatshirt that day! xo
