This Acting beginner's class will cover all of the guidelines on how to become a working Actor in Hollywood and how to get started acting right in your own city! I will uncover all of the Hollywood secrets to auditioning and booking roles! This will be done with the support of carefully crafted step -by-step outlines, reviews of well known acting techniques from popular Hollywood coaches, and a finished on-camera TV/Film scene performed by YOU and critiqued by me at the end of the course. (Scenes will be sent by students via Youtube & critiqued outside of class). Throughout this masterclass, students will learn the following: - The Business of Hollywood Acting (Industry Secrets That They Don't Tell You in Acting School) - Scene Study Acting Techniques & How to Properly Break Down a Scene - On-Camera Audition Techniques and Selftapes - Acting Improv Games - How to Audition for Commercials - How to Start Your Acting Career in Your City (How to Format Resumes, Create Demo Reels, Choose Headshots and Find an Agent) **BONUS: Students will leave the course with a polished on-camera (comedy or dramatic) scene critiqued by Coach Charity (via online video submission) for future acting auditions.
