BRAND NEW WORKSHOPS FOR 2023
THEATRE VS FILM
A TWO WEEK EXTRAVAGANZA OF ACTING!
DELVING INTO THE DEPTHS OF TWO CREATIVE WORLDS, SO SIMILAR BUT YET MILES APART
To become a great and versatile actor, you must develop the skills for both stage and screen.
WEEK 1: FILM
During the first week, students will create three contrasting characters for three separate scenes.
We shall master the different techniques of acting for camera and go through multiple rehearsal techniques that will enhance each character's performance for the camera.
During the second half of the week, the students will perform the 3 scenes which will be recorded under film set conditions.
These scenes can then be used to create or add to their showreel.
What is a showreel?
An actor’s showreel is like a video showcase – it’s a portfolio of footage that you can use to send to agents and casting directors. Showreels give casting directors the opportunity to see how you come across on camera and your versatility as an actor.
WEEK 2: THEATRE
In week two we shall do a complete 180. Using the same characters and scenes from Week 1 we will now start adapting the characters and performances for the stage. We shall delve deep into various stage and theatre rehearsal techniques to bring new life and energy to the characters and scenes that were created in the first week and prepare them to be performed on stage.
On the last day of the week the students will perform in a special Showcase. Family and friends will be invited to watch the scenes created for film, followed by the live performance on stage; showcasing each student’s talents and skills in front of a live theatre audience.
Please Note: To get the most out of this workshop we highly recommend enrolling for both weeks however there is the option to attend either Week 1 or Week 2 if your child is unable to attend both.

A fun packed week exploring all the different sides of acting from theatre to film, green screen to castings and much much more.
Each day will be unique and will provide new exciting experiences for our young actors.
DAY 1 SKILLS DAY
We will begin with fun acting games for the students to get to know each other. Then we will move on to vocal and movement exercises where our students will learn how you use their voice and body to create interesting and believable characters.

Camera, lights, action! From one world to the next, in Day 4 we move onto acting for camera. Using the scenes created for the stage we shall now use them for the screen! Students will learn the subtle but yet powerful differences between stage and screen acting, they will understand how to adapt their performance to suit TV and Film. Before the day is out, the students will try their hand at acting in front of a green scene, from pretending to be a superhero to being deserted on a distant planet.
DAY 5 CASTING
Using all of the techniques they have learnt from the last four days, the students will now embark on a day of castings and auditions. From commercial casting to theatre and film castings, we will guide the students through the exciting casting process and they will understand how actors work their way into that next big Netflix show! In each casting simulation they will be using the character they have developed and also having to improvise on the spot. By the end of the day they will be ready for any casting that is thrown their way!
All of the footage recorded throughout the week will be shared with you, so that you and your child can relive the fun week together at home.
