Actor Erdem Yılmaz was the guest of "Acting Workshop"!


Erdem Yılmaz was the guest of the "Acting Workshop" event organized by Art & Communication Design, the student club of Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) Fine Arts Faculty Communication and Design Department.


The "Acting Workshop" was organized by the Art & Communication Design Student Club, which aims to encourage students to work in the field before they graduate, to gather students from different departments from creative disciplines under one roof, to create a "communication design" culture together and to produce new projects. The workshop, where there was intense participation, was held with the participation of Erdem Yılmaz, who is an active actor in both cinema and theater. Erdem Yılmaz is known for various TV series and movies such as; The Price of Love (2013), The Long Way (2014), Kulyas: The Price of Curse (2019), Broken Lives (2021).

“Every actor wants to work with a director who pushes the limits”

In the workshop, which was held with the actor Erdem Yılmaz, who is on the way to becoming one of the popular names of the last period, a conversation was held with Lect. Ahmet Bikic as the moderator. Actor Erdem Yılmaz: “I was a hyperactive and mischievous child, and I was not very successful at school. My parents used to send me to events so that I could throw off my excess energy. First, they sent me to football, however, I became the worst football player in the world. Then, after basketball, piano, guitar courses, I went to the theater. Even at that age, I decided to do this job.”

Yılmaz also added, "My family has always supported my passion for acting, which started in my childhood. No matter what a person does, s/he fails when s/he does not like the job they do. That is why doing what you love is what brings success. Different directors add different perspective to actors. Maybe, that is why actors in Nuri Bilge Ceylan's films show their highest performance in those films. Every actor wants to work with a director who pushes their limits."

At the end of the event, Lect. Ahmet Bikic presented a plaque to actor Erdem Yılmaz.
