Faith Hibbs-Clark can detect when people are lying. Since actors get paid to lie for a living, Faith, a deception detection expert, has made a career of teaching these performers how to be more believable on stage or camera. Faith uses a unique and proven scientific method to help her students. She has fascinating insight into human nature and her work can apply to the everyday aspects of communication, and she will share her techniques on how to know when someone isn’t being honest.

The Communication Method for Actors (CMFA), "acting science," is a unique acting method created by Faith Hibbs-Clark, casting director of 20+ years and former deception detection body language expert. The CMFA method utilizes the science of psychology and the art of communication to help actors create science-based formulas to empower their performances and reach their optimum outcomes to book more roles, standout to directors on set, and receive more recognition in their careers. It is an outside-in approach that focuses more on how the actor is perceived than how the actor feels. Unlike other acting methods, this method is less concerned with deep character immersion and back story, which might not translate on screen, but rather on how the actor is perceived. Therefore, actors are encouraged to encode and reverse engineer their performances with body language and other neuroscience brain hacks that will help to evoke feelings in the mind of the receiver.

Faith considers herself a digital nomad, able to teach virtually from anywhere. She divides her time between France, New Mexico and everywhere in between, working with new and past clients, like Academy Award winner Emma Stone was one of Faith's former clients.
