MASTERCLASS WITH WILL HINES: PULLING PREMISE BASICS

Santa Fe Improv 1202 Parkway Drive, Santa Fe, NM, United States

Give a monologue and initiate a premise. It's easy until it's not. We will go over some solid strategies (one step beyond, analogous, using a character), problems to avoid (don't forget the why) and things that are different than non-premise improv (yes, you can tell the other person who they are). Once the scene gets going, it's easy. Get sharp at this very useful tool and approach.

$20.00 – $100.00

MASTERCLASS WITH WILL HINES: VERTICAL VS HORIZONTAL HEIGHTENING (PLEASE READ PREREQUISITE)

Santa Fe Improv 1202 Parkway Drive, Santa Fe, NM, United States

This class is about supporting a scene once it gets going. We'll look at "vertical" heightening -- repeat what's going on already, except BIGGER. And then also the more elusive "horizontal" heightening (move to elsewhere in the world, follow the consequences, fill out the history that got us here). You need both kinds. This is a very improv nerdy but fun workshop in what to do once things get going! Prerequisite: Students must have taken, or be currently taking, SFI’s Level Three (or higher) Improv classes at SFI (or those with equivalent improv experience).

$20.00 – $100.00
