Voice & Delivery Workshop -- Every Syllable Is a Weapon
My voice was my signature. Clipped, precise, weaponized. I teach you to use rhythm, pause, and emphasis to make every line land. We work on monologues from All About Eve and The Little Foxes. Tip: Slow down. The audience hangs on the pause, not the word.
Golden Age Hollywood Costume Jewelry Collection
Rhinestone brooches, chandelier earrings, cocktail rings -- all screen-used replicas from the 1940s-1960s era. Each piece tells a story about the character who wore it. Borrow for period shoots, photo sessions, or just feeling dangerous.
Deep Focus Cinematography Workshop -- Everything in Focus at Once
Gregg Toland taught me this for Citizen Kane: keep the foreground AND background sharp. It forces the audience to choose where to look -- and that choice IS the story. We study lens selection, lighting for depth, and staging in three dimensions. Tip: When everything is in focus, composition becomes your only guide.
Radio Drama Production Workshop -- Theatre of the Mind
No picture. No set. Just voices, sound effects, and the listener's imagination. I panicked a nation with War of the Worlds using nothing but a microphone and clever editing. Radio drama is the purest form of storytelling. We write, record, and produce a 10-minute piece in one session.
Survival Kit (Roman Field Pack Recreation)
Recreation of what a Roman soldier carried: canteen, fire kit, rope, blade, dried rations pouch, wool blanket. 30 pounds of everything you need and nothing you don't. I will show you how to make camp with just this.
Magic & Misdirection Workshop -- The Art of Deception
I performed magic my entire life -- for troops in WWII, on talk shows, and between takes on set. Magic teaches you about attention, misdirection, and the willingness of people to believe. Every filmmaker is a magician. We learn card magic, cups and balls, and the psychology behind why people see what you want them to see.
Kung Fu Comedy Workshop -- Fighting and Falling with Style
I'll teach you to take a hit, sell a fall, and make the audience laugh while you're in pain. We use chairs, ladders, and tables as props -- everything in the room is a weapon and a punchline. Tip: Always show the whole body. Wide shots let the audience see the skill. Close-ups are for actors who can't fight.
Stunt Safety & Fall Training Workshop
Before you can do a stunt, you need to know how to fall. We cover breakfalls, rolls, wall hits, and stair tumbles on mats. I've broken nearly every bone in my body -- YOU don't have to. Safety isn't about being careful. It's about being PREPARED. We drill until the landing is automatic.
Crash Mats & Safety Pads (Full Stunt Kit)
Eight crash mats in various sizes, knee pads, elbow pads, and a body harness. This is the safety equipment my stunt team uses for medium-height falls and wall work. Tip: Never do a stunt for the first time on camera. Rehearse until the fear becomes respect.
Prop Weapons Collection (Breakaway Chairs, Rubber Bottles, Foam Pipes)
Sugar glass bottles, balsa wood chairs, foam pipes, rubber bricks -- everything you need for a prop fight scene. I've used more chairs as weapons than any actor in history. They break beautifully on camera and barely sting in person. Barely.
Minimalist Film Directing Workshop -- Two Takes and Print
I direct fast and quiet. No yelling, no ego, no fiftieth take. We shoot a short scene with available light, two cameras, and maximum two takes per setup. Tip: Trust your actors. Hire good people and get out of their way. The director's job is to create an environment where the truth can happen.
The Anti-Hero Workshop -- Power Through Silence
The Man With No Name, Dirty Harry, William Munny. Three different decades, one technique: say less, mean more. I teach you to hold a scene with a look, a squint, and a well-timed pause. We work on screen economy -- every gesture must earn its place.
