Camera 2 is a Level One course for actors age 16+ who have some training. If you have taken Camera 1 with us, this will likely be a good fit for you. If you have taken an intro acting class (or similar) elsewhere, Camera 2 will also be a good fit for you. As always, if you have any questions for us, please call or text. We are always happy to chat with you about our studio and services.
Actors who enroll are expected to attend every class meeting, as we will be doing pertner work in each session. Obviously if you are sick or have an emergency, you will be excused from class, but if you have schedule conflicts with the class dates, please enroll the next time we offer Camera 2.

Learn How to Study a Script & Develop a Character
Building on the tools introduced in Camera 1, this course goes deeper into script analysis and scene work, helping actors make bold, specific, and appropriate choices. Students will be on their feet regularly, working in partnered scenes and applying technique in a practical, supportive setting.
Throughout the course, students will work on multiple scripts and focus on creating truthful, emotionally grounded moments with scene partners. Class exercises are designed to reduce self-consciousness and build comfort performing both in front of an audience and on camera.
Camera 2, like all of our scene-based courses, is limited to 8 students to ensure everyone has consistent time to work each session and receive focused feedback.
Filming takes place during Week 3 and Week 6. Recorded clips are provided for review, reflection, and continued learning. Please note that classroom footage is intended for educational purposes only and is not suitable for demo reels.
This session of Camera 2 meets on Tuesday evenings, starting January 13, 2026.

Camera 2 Instructors
David S. Hogan & Angela DiMarco
Mighty Tripod Acting Studio was founded in 2012 by David S. Hogan and Angela DiMarco, working actors actively producing, directing, casting, and performing in the Pacific Northwest.
Angela began her career as a child actor, securing her first agent at age eight and booking her first feature film at ten. She has since built a long-standing professional career, with over 100 credits on IMDb, and continues to work consistently on stage and on screen.
David’s path to acting was less direct. While studying at Seattle University, he began as a singer in the university choir before performing in his first musical. This led to years of classical and Shakespearean training and performance, eventually resulting—over a decade later—in signing with his first Seattle-based talent agent. His journey informs his approach as an educator: practical, patient, and rooted in real-world experience.
