Tell The Winning Story: Tell It Like A Movie!

October 7, 2022 - October 8, 2022

2-Day In Person

Sponsored by Trial School
In this 2 day groundbreaking workshop, working with renowned trial lawyer Mel Orchard and communications specialist and jury trial consultant Jesse Wilson, you will apply the most effective fundamental directing and storytelling techniques from the stage to help you discover and deliver the winning story to judges, mediators and jurors.

When we see that our compass as a storyteller for the courtroom stage has more to do with our greater ability to direct the movement of story, instead of just telling a story, we expand the potential to move people.

Working in an actual blackbox theater in beautiful Colorado, you’ll be provided with simple, powerful, easily accessible, and real directing methods from the stage and screen to command the stage and inspire your jurors to action.

Attendees should come fully prepared with a Real Life Client/Witness in a current or upcoming case you are working on.

SPACE IS LIMITED
EVENT IS LIMITED TO 10 ATTORNEYS ONLY

BRING YOUR CASES. LETS GET TO WORK.

Learn to:

LISTEN
BREATH
CONNECT
TRUST…
IN THE RIGHT STORY!

Other skills you will be developing:

  • Making fear your ally on stage— from stage fright to stage freedom!
  • Develop your own personal style, and command your jurors attention with the 8 fundamentals of breakthrough communication from the stage and screen
  • Apply the 4 Steps of The Stage to transform you, your client, and your jurors from Victim to Victor
  • Expanding vocal range, breathing techniques, inflection, and expressiveness
  • Increase your courage and confidence through the art of improvisation
  • Speak, Silence! Using silence powerfully and effectively in your delivery
  • Owning “your story” with your entire body, not just “from the neck up:” Non-verbal communication & body language- postures, gestures and establishing proper eye contact during Opening Statement, Direct and Cross Examination
  • Increased ability to effectively use pitch, articulation, inflection, volume, rate, and clarity in your delivery
