Industry & Resources
“After years of attending classes, workshops, masterclasses and four years of drama school, I found myself shockingly unprepared to tackle the reality of the industry. While the safe space of the acting studio helps develop confidence, exploration and technique, the broader industry is commonly void of such safety nets. This intensive will help to serve a bridge between what we learn in the studio, and what is expected of us in the audition space, on set, and even in post-production. We will cover every component of being a professional actor that is often left out of typical acting curriculum. “
