This class exercises the fundamental techniques of the craft of acting. Actors will be familiarized with the foundational building blocks of acting technique pursued by acting students in the best acting schools and studios across the globe.

This class is for relative beginners to understand, experientially, what it means to work at becoming a skilled actor. The class can also serve the advanced beginner by reworking, through exercises, the technique notions that will keep you in shape to “play the scene.”

We will learn by doing, jumping right into technique exercises and mini performance challenges which will be played  weekly  for the camera. This class introduces you to basic “on-camera” act technique. There is a significant difference between stage work and camera work, and we will give you that perspective, and practice, early on.

We work, and play, in each class to understand experientially what it means to work at becoming a skilled actor. This class experience has been devised for actors to begin to get a hold on what process works specifically, and then, finally, above all, to be loose and playful, just jumping right in to give acting a good go on stage, and “on-camera.”

Students in this class will work on short one-minute monologues, improvisational exercises, and some short contemporary scene material with partners. All this will be filmed with quality sound.
