I sometimes wondered if I could have had a career as an actor. I watched directors direct. Some are extremely meticulous. S/he has a vision and only that is what s/he wants to see on film. And others actually encourage actors to contribute what they know best. I don’t remember the director’s name but he was actually shaping the fingers of the actress as she stood on a bridge with her hands over the railing. He would be the former. Clint Eastwood would be, no, the latter. The commentary on the “Bridges of Madison County” DVD was fantastic to listen to. He would be someone I would enjoy working for if I had talent. My issue is a lack of patience with the process. My hat is off to all credible performers for enduring the creation of the art.
Well, that is only a part of what I wanted to say. I listen to many young, old, and in-betweenies recite and narrate scenes from programs or movies they saw.
“He, like, has this gigantic gun, man, slung over his left shoulder, cause the other arm was shot up but that did not stop ‘im from shootin.’ ”
“The dress was low cut in the front. It was a wonder she dident pop out, you know? That silver was, it looked like it was white and blue, like wow, it was all a deez cullahs.’ ”
It’s fun to hear the attention to detail people remember when they talk about a movie or a television show. That is the end product. The directors create that end product. On the Star Trek Nemesis DVD, Stuart Baird was full of what his vision was. Not meaning that negatively, the special feature showed how it was realized. Let’s take a page from this director and every other – Lucas, Spielberg, etc. with storyboarding.
I love art and the storyboarding process is wonderful instructional artwork that includes, but is not limited to:
- · points of view;
- · colors of a scene or set;
- · positions of actors or others in the scene;
- · the action in the scene;
- · the direction of action in the scene, and
- · special effects.
There may be more things that are incorporated. Whatever the end result is it is shown in the storyboard. It is a two-dimensional freeze frame of a movie. It is a tool that permits the participants to plan and be aware of all of the pieces and moves that the product will undergo. It is tedious, it is labor intensive but it identifies the path on which the project visually develops.
Before you get to the actual enactment, work out what you desire to do on paper in two ways- as you would read or recall it and as you would see it.

What Is a Health Coach?
A holistic health practitioner (or health counselor) is a wellness guide and supportive mentor. Together, we’ll work to achieve your goals in areas such as achieving optimal weight, food cravings, sleep, and energy. Through working with me, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of the foods and lifestyle choices that work best for you and implement lasting changes that will improve your energy, balance, and health.
I practice a holistic approach to health and wellness, which means that we look at how all areas of your life are connected and affected. Does stress at your job or in your relationship cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? As we work together, we look at how all parts of your life affect your health as a whole.
I lead workshops on nutrition and offer individual and group health and nutrition counseling. I realized a dream to study at The Institute for Integrative Nutrition and it changed my life. Let me support you to change yours.
