Building on lessons learned in Acting 101: Mind, Body & Breath, and Camera 1: The Audition & The Biz, Camera 2 goes deeper with script analysis, and puts actors in partnership for scene work. The best actors are also amazing scene partners, and this class will teach you how to create dynamic, believable performances, while also showing you how to be generous in your work so your scene partners also shine.
Camera 2 is a great fit for actors who have taken Camera 1 with us. While Camera 1 focused on The Audition, this class teaches actors how to perform Script Analysis and work with scene partners. Every student will work in each class in our intimate studio environment – 8 students max.
If you have not taken Camera 1 but you want to enroll in this class, you must have some acting experience and professional training. You should understand the foundations of acting (previous Acting 101 class, etc.) and have booked on-camera work. If you have any questions about whether you are a good fit for this class, please contact us, we would love to connect with you.
