Acting for Camera LIVE Class – August-October 2024

This is a 7 class course on acting for the camera for those of you with some previous acting experience either in an acting class, on stage, or on sets. We will be learning acting techniques for on-camera auditions, commercial copy, improvisation, devising, comedy and serious scripted scene work.

Participants will become familiar with the filmmaking process, but emphasis will be on the acting process as tailored for the camera. We will practice techniques to develop the inner life of the character, clarify the dramatic action, and increase moment to moment awareness.

Students will be required to memorise scripts and MUST be responsible to scene partners in the later part of the course. Prior acting experience is needed for this course. There will be extended rehearsal times to be agreed.

This class has a smaller class size and is limited to 10 students maximum in order to provide the highest quality of instruction. These On-Camera classes are focused on the acting process and will involve video playback. Because it is a process-oriented course, we do not keep or publish the work that is done in the class. This allows more time for the acting work, and less time is spent on the technical elements.
