Building Character

Great things come in small packages. Kids have big imaginations and there’s nothing better to do than explore it! As they learn about themselves and find what works for them, we'll help bring their uniqueness to the characters they take on.

We teach technique, focus, and confidence. To create compelling characters, our actors are challenged to understand human behaviour. Learn to channel your creativity through improvisation, take direction, and explore your emotions, so your work stands out as your own.

• Emotional Connection: Learn to access emotions through physical exploration. Through breath, body and movement you will understand how to organically and safely embody a character.

  
  

• On-Camera Acting & Technique: Learn how to work comfortably on camera, use clear eye-lines, and establish the character’s world. Build your on-camera presence and own the audition space.

  
  

• Scene Study: Knowing your lines is just the start; understanding the what and why of what you're saying is the goal. Learn to ask the important questions, make bold choices with specificity, and deliver captivating performances full of depth.

Other Details:

Materials will be assigned according to the actor’s level of experience. Concepts will be modified as needed to fit each particular age group.

When working with audition scenes, we ask that parents set aside a little bit of time every day to help their actors come off-book. It’s a team effort!
