  • Acting Intensive

    • Our Diverse mix of teaching approaches including (but not limited to) Meisner, the Method, Stanislovsky, and the Chubbuck Technique provide our students with the skill set they will need to work with directors and other performers from any background in this profession. We use Kinetic and Sensory exercises to hone an actor’s focus, awareness, flexibility, and range of vibrancy of expression. Mental and physical relaxation is stressed as the crucial element to organizing energy for the responsibilities and FUN involved in creating a role and bringing that role to life through the author’s given circumstances.

  • On Camera Intensive

    • Our one of a kind On Camera Intensive program sharpens an actor’s skills in front of the camera and gives each student the opportunity to work with award winning film directors in a professional environment.

  • Professionally edited scene(s)

    • Quality Editing resulting in great reel footage and an unforgettable experience!

Acting & On-Camera Intensive: Kids/Teens/Adults

December Intensives

DECEMBER INTENSIVES

 

Advanced Sense Memory Workshop:
Living Truthfully in Imaginary Circumstances
Thursdays, December 3rd, 10th and 17th  
7:30pm – 9:30pm
Only $165

 

We begin with the individual; with his or her body, background and senses. The actor learns to respond quickly and fully to all stimuli in an effort to create reality and spontaneity in their acting.  Ones’ senses hold the key to life and experience.  Sense memory exercises assist the actor to utilize all five senses and to respond fully and vividly to imaginary objects as one is capable of doing with real objects in daily life.   We will seduce the senses.  Little by little they will come alive as we explore objects through all five senses; smell, sound, touch, taste and sight. These exercises test concentration and response, and serve as a foundation for the actor’s work.  When we use our imagination to unlock the doors to all the senses, we become alive, vivid, and true.  You will then have the belief, the faith, and the imagination to create the living reality that is demanded of every performer.  This Special Workshop will explore this ‘Process of Journey’ through Sense Memory and then the application of Sense Memory to the script.

 

Acting as Play for Kids and Teens
Sunday, December 13th
1:00pm – 6:00pm
Only $75

 

Learning about acting and the various methods of honing ones talent can begin at an early age. We find that the best way to begin developing these skills is through none other than PLAY.  By taking advantage of the openness of a child’s mind and their innately powerful imaginations we help them learn how to harness their natural acting abilities.  Through a series of theater games, imagination exercises and physical play we illuminate our student’s inner actor and set them on the path to acting success!  Come play with us whether if it is just to explore what acting is or if you want to learn how to take the first steps toward a future acting career!
