Ted's Winter Classes

I am hoping to begin “Actorcise” (cold reading workshops) again, this January. 
The classes will likely be held Thursdays or Wednesdays from 11am – 1 pm. 

So far, I do not have a Scene Study Class Scheduled.

Here are the two set classes I will be offering:

On Camera Acting I - 7 weeks (Limited to 10 actors)
Dates: January 14th - February 25th
Time: Wednesdays 6:30pm - 9:30pm
The cost is $245—A $50 dollar deposit holds a spot. The balance is due by the second class. 
Mailing address for payments, below. Paypal and Square payments accepted with 3% surcharge.

Beginning with improv and easing into scripted scene work, this is a relaxed, 
fun approach to getting comfortable in front of the camera. 
The objective of the class is to establish the foundations of a process that emphasizes simply listening and talking - 
being "in your skin" as opposed to “in your head.” 

All work is filmed, reviewed and discussed—time permitting. Each actor receives their weekly video files. 

On Camera Acting II - 7 weeks (Limited to 8 actors)
Dates: January 15th - February 26th
Time: Thursdays 6:30pm - 9:30pm
The cost is $220—A $50 dollar deposit holds a spot. The balance is due by the second class.
Mailing address for payments, below. Paypal and Square payments accepted with 3% surcharge.

Moving beyond "being in your skin" and finding simplicity on camera, here the focus is on script analysis, 
the "headspace" of the character, rehearsal process and auditioning. Actors are expected to up the ante, 
as we get into the hard work of acting. Expect this class to require more of a time commitment. 
This class is especially tailored to actors who have already been through the Foundational I class, though that is not a requirement.

All work is film, reviewed and discussed—time permitting. Each actor receives their weekly video files.
