What Would Kate Do? (specifically Kate Winslet, as an actress )
Real & funny talk about Kate Winslet and how her acting work & related choices promote the hard work of acting, being present as an actor, getting the most out of (and giving the most to) the other actors in the room, female empowerment and characterization, evolution of female strength, and more. This podcast is for fun & education, and not for monetary purposes. Because I love acting and Kate Winslet! She's the best free actors' guide ever! Excuse me as we iron out the kinks and try to find our "vision" of this podcast and how it relates to what Kate would do as an actress. This isn't a movie or film review podcast. It's about how Kate maximizes the potential of the character and the movie by using the hard work involved with the acting process, about her choices as an actress, and her technical, emotional, and physical resources while playing a character (thanks Juan). Let us know your feedback by emailing whatwouldkatedo [AT] shaw.ca. What do you want more of, in the context of this podcast? We want to add even more focus on what Kate's acting and roles, and how she embodies the characters, have done to progress female empowerment, at the time each movie or TV show was filmed.Thank you Rumble House https://www.facebook.com/rumblehouseliveart/ for doing the podcast artwork for us!
