From the acting newbie to the hobbyist to the aspiring professional, we see a wide range of students; all with very different acting goals. We’re eager to help each student accomplish these goals, whatever they may be!
Our Acting Essentials session is similar to an intro/beginner class and provides a fun & formal introduction to acting, technique, and the business side of the industry. No experience is needed and adults + mature teens are welcome to join! This session focuses heavily on acting technique; your foundation and recipe to achieve real, authentic emotions for bold, impactful, and moving performances that make an audience forget they're watching a film or play and feel as though they're watching someone's life unfold. Great acting is about truthfulness, vulnerability, authenticity, and specificity (no matter if it's for theater, film, tv, commercial or voiceover work); which we can accomplish by training in universally-practiced acting techniques and practicing them with our instructor and classmates in a supportive studio environment.
???? ???'?? ?????:
• A thorough understanding of what acting really is and what skills you must have in order to be skilled in the discipline of acting (in short, a debunking of the many assumptions carried by the majority so you can make an informed decision on whether to pursue acting professionally)
• A working understanding of 3 of the most recognized and universally utilized acting techniques (Meisner, Strasberg, and Practical Aesthetics) and how to implement them into your work as an actor (P.S. "on-camera technique" is not an acting technique; acting technique = the emotional work of an actor. Meisner, Strasberg, Practical Aesthetics, Stanislavski, Chekov, Method, Hagen, Adler, for example, are all universally-recognized acting techniques and all involve understanding how to achieve authentic emotion in a scene)
• How to become more emotionally intelligent as well as a thorough introduction on why "living truthfully through imaginary circumstances" is vital for brilliant and compelling acting performances
• How to get out of your head so you can effectively and instinctually communicate what you want (say what you mean and mean what you say) and articulate how you feel in any given moment (i.e. scene)
• A detailed introduction of the business side of the industry including agents, demo reels, slates, casting calls, callbacks, head shots, resumes, unions, working in the SE Region with and without an agent & more
• The basics of reading, analyzing, and dissecting scripts, understanding POV, objectives, tactics, "as-ifs" in your scene work, and making things personal and meaningful
• The importance of specificity and making bold choices for an actor
• How to slate and properly audition in person plus auditioning etiquette
• How to properly audition by self-tape; the most utilized form of auditioning
• How to ease nerves and "stage fright" jitters with relaxation techniques so you can refine your public speaking skills
??? ???????????: All our classes are taught by professional, agency-represented actors who live in Jacksonville and work regionally (Atlanta, Orlando, Tampa, Savannah, Miami, Nashville, and Knoxville) on paid bookings in film, theater, commercials, and television. Additionally, many of our instructors are multi-disciplined, meaning that besides being highly trained and skilled in acting, they have also trained in music, singing, dance, improv, and more! We believe that the very best person to teach you how to do the job you want is with someone who already has that job! All of our instructors are professional, skilled, agency-signed actors who are actively working in the industry right now!
???? ????? ?? ????? ???:
• adults & mature teens with no formal training who are genuinely interested in learning the foundational and technical skills necessary for bold, truthful, compelling, and impactful acting performances
• those wanting to build confidence, strengthen communication and public speaking skills, explore a passion, and be challenged
???? ????? ?? ??? ????? ???:
• those primarily motivated by fame, celebrity status, "being a star" or "getting to Hollywood"
• anyone lacking the self-discipline to work hard or those that believe there are short cuts to being a skillful actor who books in legitimate, paid productions (acting is a discipline and a performing art much like dance, music, or singing)
????????????:
• Students must be able to read + memorize dialogue on their own
• Successfully register prior to the class start date (We will provide everything else needed for class)
????? ????:
Our classes have always been kept smaller in size for more individualized attention and to provide a more personalized curriculum to ensure each student's success in the program. Because of this, we book up very quickly. Please understand, once a class is full, it is marked "SOLD OUT" and we cannot add any additional students to it. You can request to be added to the wait-list via email at [email protected] or register for the next session immediately to guarantee your spot.
??????????:
Because this session is only 4 weeks, we strongly encourage perfect attendance. If you must miss a class, we'll do our best to get you caught up in time for the next class so you're not behind. You may make-up a missed class in any future session. Make-Up Dates never expire.
