Welcome to episode #25 of The Filmmaker's Playbook, hosted by writer-director Jason Branagan.

On today’s show I talk to Acting Coach, Helena Walsh. Helena is an International Voice, Acting and Empowerment and Resiliency Coach and has worked with some of my favourite actors. She is the Founder of Helena Walsh Empowerment Studios; an Organic Intelligence® Coach, a Fitzmaurice Voicework® teacher and the co-creator of 'The Actor's Practice'.

In our conversation we discuss how Helena came to her career, how she helps actors develop their craft, the impact of the nervous system on performance, the importance of being oriented in a scene, creating a trusting space, how to embody performance and much, more more.

The purpose of this podcast is to give a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the filmmaking process and to make real-world, educational information about filmmaking and film careers accessible to everyone at zero-cost, so whether you're a casual film fan, an aspiring filmmaker, or a seasoned professional, I hope you enjoy today's episode and learn something interesting in the process.
