* Students audition for BBC Comedy Casting Director, Feature Film Producer, Commercial Casting Director. See latest news!
The course is taught in a way that allows the inexperienced screen actor to develop and progress as well as those who have some screen acting experience. We will analyse your camera technique and break down preconceived ideas of how to act and how to act for TV.
Workshops will cover a range of mediums and techniques with a focus on acting for screen. Most sessions will involve working on TV scripts from current or recent TV productions. In addition, students will get to work on screen using our HD Cameras and view their work back. We feel this is a useful tool and helps the student identify areas for future improvement.
At the end of each term, students take part in 'Castings' in front of either a Casting Director or TV Director.
Students from the class have gone on to gain places at top London Drama Schools as well as getting agents and indeed professional Acting work in TV, Theatre and Film.
Each term is made up of 12 weeks and is further broken down into 3 modules, each module lasting around 4 weeks. Therefore it may be possible to join the workshop at various times throughout the year.
Examples of work to be covered….
