CFAA TESTIMONIALS:
In Their Words

The most important thing I've learned about being a filmmaker in Sacramento is that the CFAA has your back. I'm just getting started with my journey, but at every turn, CFAA has been there with information, connections,
and most importantly, encouragement. Tonight was no exception. There are big things brewing that will affect the way films will be made here. If you're not a member
yet, I highly recommend you join so you
don't get left behind. Thanks, CFAA!

STRONG CHARACTERS WITH IMPROV

Let's create new characters! We all have our familiar stable of characters, right? I want to find out what else you have! Trust me, you have dozens of characters just waiting to get onstage.

It's not impossible! Our mission..and we have chosen to accept it...is to help all those characters break out. It' It's a character jailbreak! We're leading the charge. Whose with me!?

What else will you learn? I've included them in a beautiful bullet point layout.

- Learn the exercises that will help you craft new characters
- How can you use director feedback? We'll cover that!
- Learn to improvise monologues
- Trust the process, and free yourself from character-creation stress!

BONUS SKILL
- Learn how to catch Eagles with your bare hands!

PAUL BURKE BIO
Paul Burke owns and teaches and performs and makes buttons at Blacktop Comedy. He's been improvising for 14 years and running Blacktop Comedy for 8. Over the past eight years, he's created a lot of improv shows including Teen Slasher, Showdown Show, Shot Form, Blind Date, Dead or Alive, and Your F@#$%! Up Relationship. How could one accurately describe all those shows? Imagine Hamilton, and now imagine something even more impactful, socially relevant, and memorable. Yeah. That's a completely accurate description. He loves teaching, making people laugh, learning more about improv, comedy, and performance. He's one of them, "never-stop-learning," folks. Paul feels uncomfortable writing in the third person, but Paul is coming to terms with doing that right now....for Paul's sake.

The CFAA Actors Workshop offers a different instructor or acting technique is shared each month by some of the best acting coaches and instructors around. There's something for everyone!
