Directing the Actor

Produced by George Lucas and Randal Kleiser, this series of lectures are excerpts from Nina Foch’s directing class conducted at the University of Southern California in 2002. The lectures, organized into sections, cover script analysis, casting, directing, and acting. Spend some time watching Nina, learn from her and implement her ideas into your own work. You’ll be amazed how far she can take you.

Who can benefit from Nina Foch’s course? Directors? Absolutely. Actors? Yes. But, it’s equally valuable for writers, editors, producers, and anyone with more than a passing interest in the art and craft of filmmaking. This material can be used for an entire course, as part of a course, or a rich reference source to immerse yourself in your craft.

It’s a complex program but Nina Foch makes it simple to understand Obviously good content in Nina’s course but this video series has been butchered in the editing room and just leaves you wondering what that 90% you’re missing was.

Nina Foch is quite possibly the greatest and most influential directing teacher there ever was.

work with

If Nina has taught me nothing else, it is that the Director's heart has to be invested in the material they work with or the piece will be shallow and untrue.

It's the best 4 hours course I found so far, no doubts it gives the basics for directors to know not only about how to work with actors but actually how to work with script, how to behave, how to be a good director.

Clearly giving steps how to work with actors.
