3 Day Lab
Chapter 2: Transformative Journey
March 13 - 15 | Los Angeles
|
|
This in-depth workshop focuses on the Transformative Journey: Crafting Character Arc. The Technique thinks of episodic and screenplay structure as a roller coaster ride through a truth. No story moves in a predictable straight line, it has rises and falls and loop de loops….unexplained stops and diversions, and where it ends up, might just be somewhere you never expected. So how do you craft this arc? What makes the structure true to YOU? Whether you are Directing, Writing, Acting, or Producing, this lab will show you what’s beyond the Hero’s Journey.
• Delve deep into the building blocks of Journey
• Discover how Overall Action, Beats and Relationship combine to create a visceral structure
• Learn how to define the 5 key scenes essential to your protagonist's Journey
• Think outside the “Hero’s Journey” box

Joan Scheckel
FEEL THIS
curated by Chivas Clem
Saturday, February 28
THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF ART 11am-6pm
Reception 6-8pm @The Space
FEEL THIS is Joan Scheckel’s first solo show of photographs, curated by Chivas Clem.
The photos were born out of her collaboration with actors, directors, cinematographers, and artists as she developed and refined “The Technique” - her revolutionary method of achieving maximum artistic agency through accessing pure unmediated feeling. Scheckel’s photographs serve as a record of the birth of this new method as her subjects are tasked with reaching sustained heights of pure feeling. In this moment her subjects reach an emotional critical mass in which the veil is lifted on the inner life. These feelings, exposed without context, also have the effect of creating an index of mysterious narratives that are never resolved.
FEEL THIS is a visual manifesto of Scheckel's shepherding a new movement of authentic filmmaking - the central tenet of which is that storytelling derives from universal truths that reside within each individual. The photographs capture moments of dramatic urgency, the slippery place between the self and its performance as it happen under the lens.
