launching international stars since 1997
Our 16-18yr old classes start at the Introduction to On-Camera level for beginners, and build up to our Master Class. We take great care in placing actors in the right class to ensure that they are growing and challenging themselves alongside their peers. Our goal is to get your work up to a competitive industry standard as quickly as possible. We want to see our actors working and getting paid to do it.

INTROduction TO ON CAMERA PERFORMANCE
This class is simply about doing it! For aspiring actors who always wondered, but never did or for those needing a jolt out of their comfort zone. If you were ever curious about film + television performance or were once told that you should be "an actor", then this is the class for you! Experience first hand what today's actors are doing. Don't just imagine how it might have been, or how it might be, know for yourself how it is and how the camera sees you.
