Paul Mercier to give actor and directors' classes in Galway

Deadline looms for entries to workshop

PAUL MERCIER, the award winning Irish director and writer, whose debut feature film, Pursuit, premiered at the 2015 Galway Film Fleadh, will give a workshop for actors and film-makers next month.

The 'Workshop for Directors & Actors with Paul Mercier', hosted by the Galway Film Centre, takes place on Saturday November 7 and Sunday 8. It will help guide participants on how to negotiate and work together to create different scenes; provide an understanding of the various different ways to approach a scene; how to work from script, to rehearsal, to going for a take; and participants will workshop scenes together and compare and contrast the different approaches.

Paul also directed the hit Irish-language teen series Aifric for TG4. He is a founding member and artistic director of the Passion Machine Theatre Company.

Only 12 places are available for the workshop and the cost is €130/120. To apply email [email protected] with a brief, relevant CV by October 16. For more information see www.galwayfilmcentre.ie or call 091 - 770748.
