What We Will Cover

Each week we will tackle a different genre: 1) Co-Star, 2) Activity, 3) Comedy, and 4) Impediment/Triage. From how to incorporate physical impediments to all of those HIGH stakes hospital procedural shows to creating filling out the world of Co-Star sides to create bookable tapes! Live Sessions will be held Fridays from 11a to 1p (PDT) on Zoom. First class is May 7, 2021.

Due to class size, we will not be giving feedback to every tape submitted. Selected tapes will be used to highlight lessons and tips for you to apply a critical eye to your self-tapes. We want to arm you with the tools to take ownership of your creative process and feel confident working on your tapes on your own. No more "actor guru" mentality.
