About this listen

In the eighth episode of Short Hand, we’re going in for a close-up on working with actors and speaking to actor and filmmaker Romola Garai (Amulet, Scrubber) and director Stella Corradi (Sitting in Limbo, Killing Eve, Trigonometry) about trust, collaboration and cultivating performance.

Topics covered include: what defines a good performance, how to honour different approaches to acting, why perfection is a myth, working with child actors, how to be flexible and playful, effective communication, figuring out subtext and giving notes.
