Level 2: Scene & Character Mastery — Story in Motion
Description:
Take your improv skills to the next level as we dive into emotionally grounded characters and compelling scenes. This course helps you explore how people relate, why they behave the way they do, and how to bring real depth to improvised stories. You’ll develop stronger characters, understand emotional stakes, and learn how to craft scenes that evolve naturally. If Level 1 was about learning the dance, Level 2 is about learning the music.
Perfect for:
Level 1 grads and improvisers ready to focus on character, emotion, and scene work.
