Take your acting skills from the stage to the screen! This advanced class gives teen actors hands-on experience with the unique techniques and demands of on-camera performance. Students will work with an experienced film instructor on practical exercises while learning how to create authentic, compelling performances that connect through the lens. Actors will develop camera awareness in a practice film set and explore how to adjust their acting training for the camera, where subtle choices and genuine reactions can make all the difference. Curriculum will also include discussion of basic on-camera audition skills and on-set workflow. This class is a great next step for teen actors ready to sharpen their craft, expand their range, and build confidence on camera
