This intensive beginner’s course immerses novices in acting fundamentals rooted in the traditions of Stanislavski, revered as the father of modern acting.
This 10-day course introduces concepts and practices developed by Stanislavski, Strasberg, Stella Adler, Uta Hagen, Sanford Meisner, David Mamet, William H. Macy, and Tony Grahn. Its aim is to cultivate a deep appreciation for the actor’s craft and provide participants with an experiential understanding of embodying characters within storytelling.
Participants engage in a structured process that integrates foundational principles, applying them through basic scene study, script analysis, audition techniques, and self-taping exercises. Practical insights into industry practices—from navigating the casting process to finding representation and selecting headshots—are also covered. The course culminates in the actor’s first monologue performance, initial self-tape audition, and a headshot photoshoot, equipping participants to navigate the competitive and dynamic entertainment industry.
Designed to prepare committed individuals for further exploration in dramatic arts and more advanced training at the Mulholland Academy, including the one-year full-time Professional Acting Diploma, the course accommodates those uncertain about pursuing acting careers. It appeals equally to aspiring writers, directors, filmmakers, and individuals seeking fresh avenues for self-expression, offering a profound appreciation of the art of acting to curious minds.
