Once the student has completed all of the lesson chapters, they will have an acting assignment. They will get a selection of monologues to choose from and they will be asked to select & prepare a monologue for performance using the acting tools that they have learned throughout the course. Once the monologue is ready for performance, they will be given a packet of instructions that will show them how to self-tape their monologue so that it is a professional level acting clip that students can use proof of their acting talents to show possible directors, agents, managers, and casting directors. Once the monologue has been taped by the student, they will need to send it to me to get my feedback on what they did well and what they can improve on to strengthen their acting & audition skills.Grades Offered
