All About Acting!

This is a great class for a student that wants to dip their toes in acting. Set up to be fun and creative. I am a passionate teacher that will make sure all students feel comfortable and happy. During this intro to acting I will begin by going through the schedule for the  30 minute class and exactly what we will be covering. I will then allow students to ask any questions they might have before we get started. This class will be filled with fun games and exercises that help beginning actors come out of their shell. First, we will do some fun warm-up exercises and tongue twisters to get our voices and bodies ready for acting. We will then go into a lesson about facial expressions and how to make them believable and emotionally connected. Next, we will explore our bodies and go through an exercise that allows students to discover how to be creative and imaginative. This is a ton of fun and helps students create characters from scratch that are unique to their personalities. Through out this portion of the class, I will have students share the characters they created. Lastly, we will wrap of the class by talking about how an actor introduces themselves at an audition. This is called a "slate." If there is any time left over we will play some fun acting/improv games to finish up. At the end of the class I will answer any remaining questions that the students might have. This is a great intro class for students to have fun and discover basics about acting in a positive, friendly and encouraging environment!
