\u201cIn Class with Jocelyn Jones\u201d Celebrates Actors and Acting<\/i><\/p>\n \u2014 Jocelyn Jones<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, May 1, 2023\/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — A multi-part documentary series, now available online, follows the journey of 16 actors as they perfect their craft and careers under the guidance of Jocelyn Jones, a celebrated acting teacher, author and artistic advisor.<\/p>\n In Class with Jocelyn Jones<\/a> gives a unique, intimate, close-up look at 16 accomplished artists through a series of fully rehearsed scenes, dance improvs, interviews, and exercises designed to stretch their imaginations and expression.

And I wanted people to see the magic of how actors create life before your very eyes. <\/p>\n \u201cI love actors,\u201d she continued. \u201cMy father was an actor, I was an actor, and I have advised actors for the last 30 years. I want to inspire and help the next generation of actors and directors. And I wanted to document what happens when you mix dedication, hard work, and the intention to grow into the best version of yourself both as an artist and a person.\u201d<\/p>\n Acting is distinct from other artistic endeavors, she said. \u201cA musician can practice an instrument in the privacy of his or her home. A writer can write anywhere. Painters are known to thrive in their studios dedicated to being alone with their work. But actors, performing artists need a stage with other performers to practice their craft.\u201d<\/p>\n The series has already received accolades from actors, producers, and writers:<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve ever wondered what goes on in a first-rate, professional acting class \u2013 watch this series! A must-see masterclass.\u201d \u201cJocelyn has been one of my greatest teachers, in acting and in life. Actors at all stages of their careers and everyone interested in the nature of creativity will benefit from this series.\u201d \u201cJocelyn\u2019s energy and expertise bring a new level of excitement to the virtual classroom.
