Class Description
A well-crafted scene is more than just a sequence of actions—it's
a dance of intention, sensation, and connection. This class explores
the art of designing and executing compelling scenes with purpose,
creativity, and mindfulness. Whether spontaneous or meticulously
planned, a great scene balances structure with fluidity, intensity
with care, and precision with artistry.
What You'll Learn:
- The Flow of a Scene - Understanding the beginning (preparation & meditation), middle (sensory engagement, intensity building, and surprises), and end (closure & aftercare).
- Art of Scene Writing - Moving beyond spur-of-the-moment play to create structured, intentional experiences.
- Key Elements of a Scene
- Scene summary and defining cast roles
- Timeline and pacing
- Props and environmental setup
- Risk identification and mitigation
- Understanding limits—medical, physical, and emotional
- Choreographing movement and interaction
- The power of music and playlist selection as a timekeeper
- The importance of aftercare and reintegration
The class will include discussions, practical insights, and a case study
of a complex scene involving all the items above.
Q&A Session - Bring your questions, challenges, and experiences for a
