About this Event
Price: $50 for 2.5 hour seminar ~or~ $75 includes professionally filmed clip for stunt reel use.
Please dress comfortably for movement, bring any pads or protective equipment you may own (not necessary for classes). Each seminar will feature a different fight scene and/or different weapon, so unless told to bring any props none are needed. Each person registered to film a fight scene will have it edited down into a short clip for their stunt reel use. These are done right after the seminar is completed, so costumes and makeup are not provided and must be changed into quickly if desired in the scene.
Ryan Patrick Avent is a graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts (LA Campus, 2017). He has worked as a professional stunt performer and actor and has now transitioned into a teaching roll with his martial arts background being the forefront of his focus with his business, USMA Academy. He has been a part of several stunt teams and has extensive knowledge and experience in open hand combat styles, various martial arts, bladed/non-bladed weaponry, as well as various stunt experience such as high falls, tricking, wire gags and more. Ryan wishes to share his knowledge with young actors looking to add to their skill base, which will help them land jobs but also help those who want to get started in pursuit of a career in stunts with gaining access to teams, getting connected with the stunt community, and advice with landing gigs. For Ryan, his acting experience only made him better at stunts, because it allowed him to really tap into the emotion and the character development for the roles he's portrayed, and he hopes you enjoy everything you learn.
