ちょっと休憩を: スクリーン上での俳優/モデルとしてのキャリアを築く、ステップ 3

Ever thought about onscreen acting or modeling? Not sure where to start? Get pro tips from an educator, performer, and "momager" who is guiding her own children through the industry! I've condensed years of information, troubleshooting, mistakes, repairs, advice, experience, realizations, conversations, reading, and observations into a caring but no-nonsense class format for learners who want to pursue on-camera work.

The entire "Gimme a Break" series will cover marketing yourself, preparing materials, watching out for scams, financial aspects (like work permits, Coogan Accounts, taxes, commissions), working on set, professionalism, and more. 

In STEP 1, each class session involved completing a task to help you prepare your needed materials for marketing and auditioning, and I provided feedback. In STEP 2, each class session gives you something to think about, something to discuss with your parent/guardian, or an activity to try - all of which help you understand how to be prepared and professional when undertaking on-camera work. (STEP 3 debuts November 2024!)

STEP 2 covers the casting process, sides and scripts, auditions of all types, and necessary paperwork in order to work, plus a review and a preview of Step 3.

STEP 3 (this class) covers being all ready to be on set, including on-set courtesy, how to "work the camera", understanding lighting and camera techniques, what happens after the shoot, post-production, marketing, expectations, frustrations, and on-set life vs. "regular life".

Learners do not need prior experience. Completion of STEP 1 and STEP 2 is *highly recommended* as content in STEP 3 builds on STEPS 1 and 2. Classes technically can be taken concurrently.

My teaching style is warm, nurturing, empathetic, and engaging. I project both energy and professionalism. As a long-time educator and as a parent of three kids, I truly care about kids, their safety, and their self-esteem. I love performing, both on stage and on camera, and enjoy engaging with learners about the topic.

Each class meeting will consist of a teacher-made video and/or document covering the topics for the meeting. Learners can post questions or materials to the classroom, or send me a message, to get feedback on the projects for each meeting.
