Acting coach and writer Ivana Chubbuck has become one of Hollywood's most important one-to-one teachers. Over the course of a 30 year career, she has worked with some of the most famous A-list film stars. Instructing them in her own acting theory, the Chubbuck Technique, it's her aim to empower students to remain creatively strong in an industry as intense as the movies. Ivana's methods have been so revolutionary that her students are annually nominated for Academy Awards, Emmys and Golden Globes.

Ivana's book, The Power of the Actor, was an instant bestseller. It outlines The Chubbuck Technique. The technique itself draws on real psychology and human behaviour as a basis for creating authentic characters and engage with the story. It's a 12 step program that helps actors immerse in their role, bringing scripts to life. There are hundreds of different coaches with hundreds of theories and techniques to choose from, but Ivana's masterclass is simple and extremely effective with the results to prove it.

Actors and professional entertainers like Jim Carrey, Brad Pitt and Beyonce are the alumni that stand by Ivana's work. Whether you're a professional actor or not, today's episode will change everything.
