This afternoon I was a Zoom seminar guest for Ward Studio’s “Stand-In Workshop.” I talked about Stand-In Central, the genesis of The Stand-In Handbook, as well as what working as a TV/film stand-in is about.
Today, at the 2020 General Semantics Symposium hosted by the Institute of General Semantics, my video presentation titled “Extensional Devices Revisited” was released.
The presentation gives a brief overview of general semantics and its founder Alfred Korzybski’s vision, mentions five linguistic devices he recommended for making one’s language more correspondent with empirical reality, and introduces two new extensional devices to the list.
The 15-minute video was uploaded to the IGS YouTube channel here.
Today I released the first videos of my new series supplementing the chapters of my book Long-Form Improv. The series is titled “Reading Long-Form Improv“ and it’s viewable on my YouTube channel.
Each video is dedicated to a chapter in my book, and each fleshes out the topics in the chapter for even better understanding.
I’ll be releasing videos periodically, so subscribe to my YouTube channel to be emailed updated!

Long-Form Improv (Allworth Press) comes out circa September 1, 2012. Pre-order at a number of websites:
Today I taught the second of a two-day session in long-form improv at Otterbein College.
The session culimated with a fun, informal performance in which 4 new improv teams each performed a La Ronde. The show was outstanding, especially considering that most of these students had never improvised in front of an audience.
Today I taught the first of a two-day session in long-form improv at Otterbein College.
Today I took new headshots with photographer Deborah Lopez.
Also, I flew into Columbus, OH, to teach a weekend crash course in long-form improv to the theater majors at Otterbein College.
