Which class is right for me?These classes are useful for several kinds of actors. Seasoned professionals who want to dive deeper into character study, scene analysis, and audition experience will want the advanced class. All advanced classes will be shot on camera for your review after each class. For non-actors or those just starting out who want to feel more comfortable with public speaking, and/or those who have always wanted to try acting as a career but weren’t sure how to begin, the beginning class is perfect for you.

Are the classes geared more for theatre or film?It depends on the class you signed up for. In the advanced class all exercises will be recorded and emailed to you that evening or the next business day. All classes discuss analyzing the script, character development, and making strong choices, which applies to both film and theatre. The instructors will guide you through unique processes and exercises to develop and create confidence within the assigned material that can be applied to both mediums.
