Hollywood Acting Master Class

“ACTING IS LIVING TRUTHFULLY IN IMAGINARY CIRCUMSTANCES”

SANFORD MEISNER

“Acting is being fully present, fully committed and willing to be affected  by your scene partner and the words of the scene.”

D. David Morin

WHAT IS IT AND IS IT FOR ME?

LEARN MORE

The Hollywood Acting Master Class is an intensive course/workshop for students, models, actors, or anyone keen on TV & Film. We teach you “what to do & how to do it” to get a job & handle yourself on a real set. No acting ability is required! Classes have been offered in Nairobi, Cairo, and Cape Town.

 

Each class we do a proper casting and then shoot a scene on a “hot set” with boom mics, lights, cameras, a clapper, extras, & a script super, all to teach you to concentrate & focus and BE A PRO. We teach and equip students to be a working professional, including creating show reels.

Our only rule: KNOW YOUR LINES & BE ON TIME!

10 Rules to be a Pro

  1. know your lines and be on time!

  2. no “I’m sorry”, only “got it!”

  3. know your lines so well if you got hit by a truck you’d get up with your next line!

  4. you must give yourself permission to be an artist, to be an actor!

  5. give yourself entitlement to belong, to compete, to work as an actor!

  6. you must answer “who said you could be an actor?” with “I DID!” and mean it!

  7. always answer everything with GOT IT…emails, texts, agents, calltimes, acting notes!

  8. no cellphones on set or seen in class. Be a pro. Be present. Watch and learn!

  9. always look at your scene partner’s eye closest to lens.

  10. always be early to castings and to set, be glad to be there, be a good example!
