Unlike other acting workshops, our program is integrated with our film school. The acting program takes full advantage of the numerous films being shot. Student films are being written and produced literally down the hallway. Though not required, many acting students get invaluable experience in front of the camera by being cast in student productions.

Classes emphasize, first, the theory and practice of the basic elements of the acting craft, using Stanislavsky’s Method and scene and monologue work as starting points. In conjunction with these classes, students participate in courses aimed specifically at training the actor for the arduous requirements of acting on a film set.

About our Acting Courses
Film Craft - introduces acting students to the language and grammar of filmmaking. This includes an understanding of shot language, eye lines, screen direction, camera movement, and lighting.

Scene and Monologue Work - Students work with original and published material, preparing monologues for use in auditions. Class progress is taped and the emphasis is on creating an audition repetoire designed to highlight the student’s individual talents.

Voice and Singing - teaches students a repertoire of exercises that increase mental and physical awareness, improve body alignment, and stimulate natural, reflexive breathing. Students study how to open channels in the body that control the vibrations, resonance, and range of the human voice.

Yoga for Actors - helps develop the actor’s health and physical and spiritual relaxation abilities. Yoga warms the actor up for the day’s work.

Voice And Movement - directs the actor’s attention towards the body as an instrument of expression. Students train in uncovering and developing natural movement, and learn how to control inhibitory feelings.
