Interview with A-List Acting Coach Mel Churcher
I had the privilege of interviewing Mel Churcher, a renowned international acting, dialogue, and voice coach.
With over 40 years of experience, Mel has graced the theaters of London's West End, worked with prestigious companies like the Royal National Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Company, and has coached a spectrum of talents from budding artists to Hollywood elites like Daniel Craig, Angelina Jolie, Keira Knightley, and Jet Li, among others.
In our conversation, we explored acting techniques for stage and screen, how to prepare for auditions, and managing nerves as an actor. Mel shared valuable insights into the emotional and psychological aspects of acting, emphasizing the importance of joy and passion in the craft. She also introduced practical methods for embodying characters authentically and discussed the key differences between stage and screen acting.
Beyond her hands-on work, she's written three insightful books on acting, with "The Elemental Actor" being her most recent. Mel's expertise and reputation as one of Europe's top coaches shine through, making this a must-watch for all actors. Check out the interview, and see for yourself.
