Actors preparing historical and biopic characters — this channel is for you.

WELCOME TO TEN MINUTE TIME TRAVEL

I’m Dr. Barbara — historian, author of »Preparing Historical Roles« and historical consultant with experience across 130+ novels, scripts and films. 

On this channel, I show how historical character preparation works before a role is played.

In »1905: Finding Clara«, I reconstruct a real woman’s life as a rehearsal for biopic preparation — turning fragments, places, objects and overlooked details into usable character foundations.

This is historical character preparation done in the open:
before scenes calcify,
before filming begins,
before panic-Googling takes over.
