Screen Acting Intensive Course - 4 weeks

The Screen Acting Intensive is ideal for adults who want to develop practical acting-for-camera skills through concentrated, full-time training.

You do not need professional screen credits, but you should be ready to work collaboratively, learn lines outside class and commit fully to four weeks of practical training.

The course may suit:

• performers new to acting for camera;
• stage actors wanting to develop their screen technique;
• emerging actors preparing for auditions;
• performers considering further screen acting training;
• actors returning to training after time away.

The final  weeks of the course build towards a collaborative short film project, allowing you to put your screen acting skills into practice within a professional production environment.

Working in smaller scene groups helps maximise your screen time while giving you practical experience of rehearsing, filming and responding to direction on location.

You will experience:

• preparing an assigned role;
• rehearsing scenes;
• working with a professional director;
• filming with a professional crew;
• working with industry-standard equipment;
• maintaining continuity;
• repeating performances across takes;
• responding to direction;
• working collaboratively on set.

The finished film is approximately 10–15 minutes and is delivered within 2–4 weeks of course completion. The current page also says students can use the film for showreel, agent and casting purposes.
