The Working Actor Track Year 1
Prospective students can audit one class before registering. To audit, please call our office and schedule a time to audit a class.
For students who have completed our Basic Track, or who have agents AND previous ongoing classes elsewhere. This class equips the intentional actor with the knowledge to become a working actor in the industry. In Year 1, emphasis is placed on delving deeper into the audition and on-camera process. Actor's learn to break down and analyize scripts and develop an audition "template". Set knowledge is also taught in year 1.
