Description

In this class you will learn how to take the basic fundamentals of improv and work with it to generate scenes, sketches, and characters that you can take and continue to shape. Starting with the core principles of good improv; yes, and, comedic game, and world-building (who, what, where), and combining that with a basic formula for sketch writing, you will be able to start from any base or premise and lead to a functioning scene on the spot.

The course will focus on the two main points of entry of improv-to-sketch, answering questions and understanding formula. Learning how to spot moments that will lead to better improvised scenes that lead to sketch is a skill that will come from this workshop. The class will be split into two portions. The first will dive into the points of improv-to-sketch, and the second will be active, asking participants to practice the skills and points discusses earlier in the class.

It is recommended that you have a bit of sketch and/or improv experience (classes, performances, writing alone in your basement) before you take this workshop, however it is not required.

If you are interested in learning how to create sketches from improv efficiently and consistently, then this workshop is for you!
