Amsterdam 2020
door Kadir van Lohuizen / NOOR
For the second-year students of the weekend school, the Film course was supposed to end with an actual theatre performance in Internationaal Theater Amsterdam (Amsterdam International Theatre). Then came the corona outbreak, which turned the whole world on its head, but no fear: the Amsterdam schools set up an online acting masterclass in collaboration with EYE Filmmuseum and theatre company Orkater. Over the course of two weeks, actor and workshop instructor Marc Tielemans provided the students with instructions and assignments. The students were able to submit videos and receive feedback from Orkater’s actors. A creative solution, in short, that offered the students a wonderful introduction to the discipline. A few of our students’ videos can be viewed here:
