Method Acting Immersion

Live and Online Weekly Method Acting Class with Brian Timoney

For Those Who Have Come to Acting Later and Want Real Emotional Truth in Acting

 

If you are coming to acting later than expected, and you want to develop a deep, emotional, and profound acting ability (without making a fool of yourself) then Method Acting Immersion is for you.

But first things first, let’s discuss why…

Most Actors Are Faking It

 

They are trying too hard, working on the wrong things.

Yes, it’s a double whammy that takes out many aspiring actors at the knees, and they have no clue they are doing it, let alone how to sort it out.

They are thinking about how to say the lines a little bit better, how to be clever at showing the character's behaviour a bit more and pushing out some half-felt emotion.

All of this is what I call interference, and it’s what gets in the way of people being able to act authentically.

And because they are not acting authentically, they think they lack talent.

But here is the truth:

You Don’t Lack Talent

 

It’s not about a lack of talent; it’s about the almost irresistible urge to interfere. Interference covers and masks the person's talent, and that is what Method Acting Immersion is all about. It’s about removing the interference and allowing your true talent to emerge.

How it Works

 

Method Acting Immersion is a structured introduction to Timoney Method Acting online.

Delivered live online, in a small working group.

It runs as an ongoing class, where you come in and start to see how your acting actually functions, and where it begins to get organised instead of lived.

 

What happens when you start

I work with you at your level.

And within the first few sessions, you will be clear on how to:

  • Learn lines correctly
  • Enter the mind of the character and stay there
  • Take authentic impulses and feel real emotion and experiences

This is the start of the process, and from there, you progress into more complex approaches over time.

 

The Members Area

Each session is recorded.

If you miss a week, you can go back and watch it.

You’ll also have access to previous sessions inside the members' area, so you can revisit the work and see how things develop over time.

The work is built around the live sessions. The recordings are there to support that, not replace it.

 

What’s expected of you

 

I need you to be committed to the work.

You don’t need experience.

Most people aren’t confident when they start, either. And trying to be expressive too early usually creates more control, not less.

But you do need to want to develop and progress in your work.

 

Time, Place & Fee

 

Sessions take place every Wednesday, 6:30pm – 8:00pm (UK time), in a small online group.

The programme runs on an ongoing basis.

The fee is £97 per month, and you can cancel at any time by contacting Natalie at nataliet@briantimoneyacting.com or via our Contact Us page on our website.

 

Questions that usually come up

 

“I’m not experienced enough”

That’s rarely the issue.

In many cases, people without training understand this more quickly because they haven’t built as many ways of interfering.

“I’m too old and missed the boat”

Many of our members have come later in life to acting, but with the right work and commitment, they go on to have very good careers in acting.

“I'm worried I'll make a fool of myself”

That won't happen. I work with you step-by-step at your level in a very supportive way, so you feel comfortable.

Where it can lead

For some people, this is enough.

For others, it becomes the starting point.

Immersion → Bootcamp → Ultimate Acting Programme

But that only matters if the work resonates.
