Intense Interest in On-Camera Acting Workshop!

Wednesday Workshops, organized by the Department of Radio, Television and Cinema and the IGU Career Development Center as of the 2022-2023 academic year, started to take place as an event series that includes workshops on various subjects. The first workshop of the series was held on November 16, under the title of Cinematography Workshop, under the instructor of the cinematographer Berkan Dörtkardeş. The second of the workshops was held under the title of Film Communication under the tutorship of assistant director, poster designer and translator Erdem Doğan. The third workshop was held on December 28, 2022, with the subtitle of Front Camera Acting, under the instructorship of Asst. Prof. Dr. Önder Paker. The event, which took place in Istanbul Gelişim University K Block 802 classroom, attracted great attention. A group of approximately twenty-five students participated in the event, which had limited participation. Students from different faculties and departments of Istanbul Gelişim University also took part in the workshop, which mainly consisted of students from the Faculty of Fine Arts, Radio, Television and Cinema.

Instructor Asst. Prof. Dr. Önder Paker first briefly talked about the historical background of acting. Afterwards, he produced small mise-en-scènes and made the participating students practice acting, and the right and wrong of the students were shown through the images that were simultaneously recorded on the camera and projected onto the screen. Items such as letters, boxes and weapons were also used while the mise en scene was enacted. The students, who were able to learn from both their own plays and the plays of other participants by watching each other, had a pleasant time with Asst. Prof. Dr. Önder Paker's guidance. Stating that they were very pleased with the event that continued with question and answer, the students stated that the organization of such workshops opened up a space for them.

We would like to thank Asst. Prof. Dr. Önder Paker and all our participating students.
