This chat features Ed Hooks, a professional actor from New York with nearly three decades worth of experience. The reason he’s coming on this podcast is he switched from acting into teaching acting for animation in 1996 - when DreamWorks asked him to develop a unique approach to training their animators for their first feature film - Antz. Since then Hooks has trained animators in over 35 countries and created the essential acting guidebook called Acting for Animators.
