Student in an art school, I am fascinated by the human and conceptual exchange. After a complete technical training, I understand how useful it can be to understand the technique in order to be able to free yourself from it and expect a personal and strong language.Very available and dynamic spirit, I believe in expression and I am delighted to share my experience and knowledge.

Disappointed.. He advised me to book 5 lessons. We only did one lesson after which he said he didn't want to continue the lessons because he was too busy with his projects!

These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.
Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.
The objective of this training is to be able to:
- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity
(...)
Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.
These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

I will accompany you in the construction of your artistic project within a small group of 4 to 8 people. This intimate format will provide you with the ideal space to fully express your creativity and explore your inner emotions.
In addition to the personal project, each course will include a time devoted either to the presentation of a sculptor or to a technical exercise.

We will also master the finishes, textures, sanding, patinas, waxes, pigments, acrylics, metallic imitations and collages in order to give your sculpture a personal finish.
Photography and visual communication for advanced beginners
Photography is a very powerful vehicle, visually and emotionally.
In order not to disturb what is important in the image, it is necessary to choose the framing and the colors wisely.
Even if it means retouching, reframing afterwards, there is first of all what we want to say and the reflection on the moment, quick and efficient to know.
You should not stimulate the eye by too much information, and master the technique.
In this, knowing the basics and rudiments for a very effective shot is important.
