4-week Acting Boot Camp

This is a 4-week intensive course designed to give you a solid foundation in the key principles of screen acting.

Go from “zero” to “Hero” in just 4 weeks with this intensive introductory course!

You will learn key concepts of acting such as Script and Scene Analysis, Practical Aesthetics, Improvisation, and Meisner. No prior acting experience is necessary,

You will work on several short film projects and by the end of the course, you will leave with a showreel, monologue self-tape and headshots to submit to Acting agencies and recruitment sites.

Once you have achieved your “Hero” status, you can progress onto our HND Level 5 Diploma in Film.
