Acting 101, With Grant Emerson Harvey
8 Reviews
I am a student of 'The Method', a great tool that I learned and honed in graduate school at the worldfamous 'Actors Studio Drama School' in New York City...but Method Acting isn't for everyone, so I use the tools that I have gathered from the many different coaches, professors, actors, and creatives that I have had the privilege to work with in my life.
It is my belief that no one doctrine of acting will work for everyone...So, I get to know my students and we tailor their coaching to who they are, and what works for them.

My teaching is rooted in personal experience with some of the finest acting teachers of all time. I have studied under Sanford Meinser himself. Along with many other greats. There is no one path to great acting. You will need many types tools for your tool box. This is a craft. Every actor is different. Some must be approached in a more external mode others internally.

My Name is Robert Ryel (www.RobertRyel.com) I spent almost a decade at The Beverly Hills Playhouse, primarily with students new to acting, and have performed and taught Theatre and Film Acting, as well as Voice Over and Improv for over 30 years. I am well trained in various techniques, including Stanislavski/Strasberg ("Method") and Sanford Meisner.

I've been a theater and film professional for since 1969. I was a succesful actor, appearing on Broadway with Dustin Hoffman in Arthur Miller's DEATH OF A SALESMAN as his son Hap. Later appeared as a guest-star in over 40 television shows from Mash and Barney Miller right up to Ray Donovan. Films include Stephen Seagal's HARD TO KILL as Capt. Hulland.
When I started teaching twenty years ago, I brought decades of practical solutions to the challenges all actors face - from how to audition successfully (inspite of nerves), and how to have a process for acting in front of the camera that doesn't depend on 'feeling inspired' ev

I taught acting for 5 years discovering and developing a processs that creates a life and spirit to the character you are cast to play. The process triggers the instincts with which we are born. Anybody can learn the process and is irrelevant of one's personality. The key is the desire to learn. Whether one wants to become an engineer, a teacher, a carpenter or an actor, it will not happen without the desire to learn the skills.If you are a seasoned actor, I will work with you on monologues, plays an
