An on-camera/scene class for intermediate performers, or for actors who haven't studied with us before...This is our core workshop for actors aiming at film and television principal work. It’s the place for actors to make the transition from actor training or theatre into the working world of film in the Canadian industry. You can be confident that you will cover the basics and then go beyond. Also, it’s the place for trained or experienced performers to get to know our very powerful on-camera approach. Each actor gets a variety of on-camera scenes recorded on DVD. To get the most out of this class, actors should have fundamental to intermediate-level actor training, or equivalent performance experience. An audition or interview is required unless we know you already. Apply now for admission.
