Starts May 20, 2025
This six-week intensive welcomes actors of all levels, from beginners and individuals with a theatre background and minimal on-camera experience to working actors who are new to the studio.
The aim is to give the student a broad understanding of the acting field and prepare them for further study. The class is designed to improve confidence, garner skills, learn professionalism, and inspire artistic creativity. Movement, voice, and improvisation lead to scene study, audition prep, and self-tape audition information. Actors learn professional expectations, industry information, and a general understanding of how the professional world operates. This class is interactive, on your feet, informative, and, most of all, fun!
* Please note –
Interviews for the May Intensive are fully booked.
We are happy to add you to our standby list should an interview become available or provide you with information about future intensives.

This class is for actors with varied levels of experience from the pro to those in the early stages of building their process and career. The framework of the class is designed to build the actor’s internal language and then to translate that language into action where it’s lived in the body.
Class is structured in the form of scene study as a way to deliver exercises, instruction, directing, and personal revelation in order to develop each actor to doing their best work.
This class creates a nurturing environment where students learn their own internal process, and begin to construct a system through guidance and encouragement.

On-Camera Acting
Intermediate / Advanced
Ongoing
This on-camera acting class is similar to our scene study classes, though with an extra "eye" towards the camera. Preparation, analysis, and emotional truth are explored within the confines of the camera frame.
Students will view classes live and on monitors as shot sizes, angles, and direction change with each take and adjustments are made. This ongoing class examines how the truth translates to all formats but gives on-set training for honing it specifically for the lens.

Masters Film Production
Advanced/Working Actors
Invitation Only
This invitation-only project is an ongoing experiential workshop fusing acting and content creation. Using only original scripts written and developed by the actors. In this workshop, not only will students perform but learn the various disciplines of production.
Each 15-session cycle will create a short film or web-based project focusing on performance. Actors will then have experience along with content for their reels, festival submissions, and a starting point for creating their own media channels.
This workshop will evolve and develop over time and experience with the primary purpose of the actors creating content for themselves, learning to be self-starters, and becoming a part of a creative and productive artistic community.
