KTS Webinar #54 Spotlight on Coaching in Film: KTS co-director Andrea Caban discusses her work on Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis
October 11 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am
On Friday, October 11th 10:30am PDT/ 1:30pm EDT/ 6:30pm BST
KTS Co-director Andrea Caban will discuss her experience collaborating with Francis Ford Coppola as Dialect Coach for his upcoming film Megalopolis. It’s a really good story. She did many things she’d never done before…perhaps no one (??) had done before? But her KTS training supported the process and she lives to tell us about it.
This one won’t be recorded, folks! So if you want to hear the story, you must attend live!
Tickets for this webinar are $10. Registration will close 12 hours prior to the event and participants will then receive Zoom link information.
