Ongoing Scene Study

(In Person Classes)

Ongoing Scene Study 

This course is where acting becomes a reality. Classes involve being assigned a scene partner, then learning and developing a scene over a period of 4 weeks. Each week the instructor will focus on different aspects of the scene in providing valuable feedback. This process is repeated for the next 4 weeks.

Students learn script analysis techniques, emotional prep, blocking, business, story analysis, use of voice and dialogue exercises to help actors learn to breakdown scenes on their own and achieve a higher level of believability in their acting.

Actors looking to take part in these classes are required to attend regularly and be well prepared for class, so dedication is expected as is previous on camera acting experience and fluency in English.
