Students will be taught the craft of acting through work on theatre exercises & games, improv, scenes and monologues. Emphasis will be on risk-taking in a supportive environment as character
development and scene study skills are experienced and learned. Working at their own pace, students will develop an understanding of emotional truth, communication, the playing of intentions, staying centered, working as an individual artist and within ensemble, and working "in the moment."

Utilizing actual commercial and film copy in a supportive and creative environment, students will work on-camera with playback, as they learn the skill set required by the camera.
