Has your young creator ever expressed an interest to be on TV? Do they memorize commercials or whole scenes from their favorite movies? If so, this is the on camera audition class for them! This is a beginner friendly class for any young performer who would like an introduction to the world of on-camera auditions. Using improv games, fun vocal and body explorations, and audition material students are introduced to the world of auditioning. From commercial copy to a full page scene from a movie students will explore creating a character, memorizing lines and having fun acting for the camera. This class will culminate in a movie viewing for students of their “screen test” with a take home DVD of all student work for families to enjoy.
