Acting for the Camera 1 (May/June)
Our Acting for the Camera 1 course is coming right up!
Our curriculum includes:
- Technique.
- An introduction to acting in front of a camera.
- Scene study.
- Acting in commercials.
- Cold reading.
- Auditioning.
- The business of acting.
Students are sent their footage (not for a demo reel) via private YouTube link, so they can review their work between classes and refine their technique.
This is a fun, dynamic, and well rounded course designed for actors who are just getting started, or who are moving from the stage to the screen. This is also a class which can be taken more than once, as the material can be slightly tailored to accommodate and challenge more experienced students.
