5th Training
07/07/2017
Mastering the basics of acting is the first step to becoming a performing artiste, which is also a key component in the Final. The boyz recently started their hardcore Drama and Theatre training, instructed by experienced playwright Truman Chiu, to enhance their acting abilities. Truman first asked the boyz to dress up and act silly, so they can relax and get into character. Next, Truman taught them the fundamentals of acting, and how to connect their voice with facial expressions and flow of movements to better portray the character.
To put their acting abilities to the test onstage, the boyz are given intricate scripts, some of which require them to assume two different characters, and act against a mystery guest performer. The acting segment is definitely one of the most challenging, yet surprising part of the show. Please stay tuned for the Project Boyz Power Vancouver Final on July 29th.

An excellent program arrangement and interesting content are key to creating an extraordinarily hilarious show.

To ensure the boyz will shine on stage, and present themselves confidently in front of hundreds of audience, Stage Director Didi has set an intensive and strict training that calls for the final eight to practice their stage and dance steps twice a week, and for a minimum of three hours in the studio.
Although the boyz would feel tired and exhausted after each session, they truly understand the idiom “no pain, no gain”, and would push themselves to work extra hard to reach their dreams, not to mention the performance with the pretty ladies from Miss Chinese Vancouver at the Final.

3rd Training

Whether you are the intellectual or sporty type of guy, having a fit and attractive physique is a way to win people’s heart. To elevate each contestant's ability to confront his upcoming challenges onstage in the best physical condition possible, the boyz are undergoing training by a personal instructor. A unique fitness program, which includes weightlifting, push ups, battle rope, and much more, is designed to cater for the body type of each individual contestant and maximize muscle building as well as shaping of body lines.
Some of them already have a muscular physique, and enjoy exercising as a hobby. When the instructor asked which part of their body or physical aspect they would like to target on, some jokingly said they just wanted to maintain their current body shape. Last year’s Project B.P. Final incorporated various challenges to put contestants’ physical fitness to the test. Will it happen again for this year’s Final? Find out the answer on July 29th!

As a professional entertainer, one doesn't have to be a host or an emcee to be articulate, many artistes must know how to tackle interview questions, or interact tactfully with fans on social media; thus, eloquence is a crucial factor to be successful in the entertainment industry. The Creative and Innovative Thinking Workshop, hosted by whimsical program host Mandy Chan, inspired the eight contestants’ creativity, and motivated them to think outside the box through a series of Q&A sessions.
Unlike the traditional training scheme, Mandy first asked each of the boyz to freely answer the questions in their own words, and then invite others to comment and critique. Through this interactive session, the contestants not only learned from the feedbacks, but also from fellow contestants’ mistakes as well. After summing up everyone’s comments and criticism, Mandy carefully analyzed each answer and provide valuable insights from the professional point of view, to ensure each contestant will be able to confidently and creatively express themselves in the upcoming TV promotion video shooting and What’s On interview.
