Director 101 is a FREE three part workshop that will cover submissions, the role of a director, the administrative side of directing, technical & light design, blocking, and character development.

Our final session dives into some of the logistics in making your vision become a reality! Pam Orear will spend some time diving into the art of blocking. She will walk through the challenges of blocking in the round, managing big group scenes, and how to create magic in the Corn Stock spaces. Then Dave Montague will show us how to tell a story through an interactive presentation of lighting and sound design.
