The magic occurs in the interplay between the filmmaker and the actor, the acting class aims to facilitate this connection.&#8221; Says Matthee<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matthee employs relatable storytelling combined with practical and special effects, as well as action scenes, to enrich the narrative, which also conveys themes of willpower, triumph, and addresses issues such as social challenges and their adverse effects on the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The acting class is open to students and community members interested inexplor ing their acting potential. Participants can take advantage of this opportunity free of charge, as it is part of the Red Moon Community Development Project at Roosendaal Secondary School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matthee is additionally preparing to commence filming this year between August and September on two film projects.
