The Word - The Norman Sessions #2

The Naked Actor Prepares, The Norman Sessions, were recorded in 2018.

Join us in our acting experiment The Naked Actor Prepares. It is a podcast that invites you to join the creative journey of an actor and a director, as they take a deep dive into this massive new experiment.

The Naked Actor Prepares is back with the second session in the series on Norman Bates in Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. This session is dedicated to THE WORD!

The word is the most boiled-down entity that drives you (you the character - and indeed you yourself) through the story. It's what makes you get up in the morning, gets you moving all day, gets you to push through whatever challenge may come your way, makes you try, try and try again and it's the last thing on your mind before you fall asleep.

If you find that word and tap into it with what is happening to you yourself in your own personal life, as an actor and human being, you can play any scene, any situation, you can adapt to any script changes, you can play season after season in a tv-series. You know where everything comes from, every single movement and thought -and the audience knows too, and they will recognize themselves, they will know exactly what you are doing and why you are doing it, because you will mirror them. And there, deep down inside of us, we are all alike -characters, actors and audience - and we always have been since the beginning of time.

Join us in our acting experiment The Naked Actor Prepares. It is a video podcast that invites you to join the creative journey of an actor and a director, as they take a deep dive into this massive new experiment:

We want to share with you, all of our prep work before a movie or a play. We want to be completely transparent in doing this which means that we have to be completely open and vulnerable. It’s scary, but it’s also exciting. We want to do this because our lives have changed so much from doing this work. We hope it can change yours too.
