New OC I Class Starting in February

Hey All. I still will be starting up another On Camera One class in March, however, due to interest, I am squeezing in an extra OC I starting February 8th - Monday nights. For now, we need to stick with the online format - with the possibility of moving into my cozy studio for in person classes at some point. I continue to offer a substantial discount for my online classes, and I also allow for one deeply discounted spot per class for a person who is unable to afford it due to a Covid caused job loss (ask me for details).

As always, if you are dubious about how an online acting class works, you can audit the first class to see for yourself. I set aside a few spots in the first class for this purpose.

And, as always, please let me know if you would like to be removed from this list.

Cheers. Ted

**On Camera Acting I
7 weeks (via Zoom)
Limited to 10 Actors
Dates: February 8th - March 22nd
Time: Mondays 6:30pm - 9:30pm
The total cost is: $240 (Flexible payment options)
$100 will register you
Auditing the first class is free to non-participating auditors ($20 to participate).

OC I is a great transitional class for theatre actors and an excellent foundational class for brand new actors.
Beginning with improv and easing into scripted scene work, this is a relaxed,
fun approach to getting comfortable being yourself using your imagination 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.
A 100 dollar deposit registers you. The deposit can be refunded up until 48 hours before the first class.
The rest of the payment ($140) is then due by the second class.
For payment, Venmo is preferred and Paypal is the second choice.
Venmo is via: 323-819-9622, or @tedrooney
Paypal address: twrooney@pacbell.net (Choose Friends or Family to avoid surcharge).

I have a 7 week On Camera One acting class starting up on Wednesday, January the 6th. Unfortunately, it still seems unwise to have class in my studio which sits empty, so we are sticking with the online format - which I have found is very conducive to learning on camera acting. I continue to offer a substantial discount for my online classes, and I also allow for one deeply discounted spot per class for a person who is unable to afford the class due to a Covid caused job loss (ask me for details).

November Classes

I have a 7 week On Camera One acting class starting up in a few weeks (November 3rd). Unfortunately, I am still holding Zoom classes only, as my studio sits empty. But if Portland keeps doing as well as we have been with Covid, I may be looking at holding classes in my studio space after the new year…with masks, and distancing, of course. I continue to offer a substantial discount for the online classes, and I also allow for one deeply discounted spot per class for a person who is unable to afford the class due to a Covid caused job loss (ask me for details).

As always, if you are dubious about taking an online acting class, you can audit the first one to see for yourself. I have a few spots available for this purpose.

I am also offering an OC II class as listed below.

As always, please let me know if you would like to be removed from this list.

**On Camera Acting II (via the internet - potentially becoming an in-person class)

7 weeks Limited to 8 actors
Dates: November 2nd - December 14thth
Time: Mondays 6:30pm - 9:30pm
The total cost is $225

The class is specially tailored to actors who have already been through the OC I class.
Though this is not a requirement, actors need to have the fundamental abilities that OC I covers.
If I don’t know an actors work, I will need to see some work on tape or in person.

Moving beyond "being in your skin" and finding simplicity on camera, here the focus is on
rehearsal process, the "headspace" of the character, script analysis, and auditioning.
Actors are expected to up the ante, as we get into the hard work of acting.
Know that this class will require more outside time than OC I.
All work is filmed and (time permitting) viewed and discussed.

A 100 dollar deposit holds a spot. The balance ($125) is due by the second class.
Venmo and Paypal work. Venmo via: 323-819-9622, or @tedrooney.

On Camera One Starting August 5th

I've had to delay the start of On Camera I by one week. If you are curious but uncertain, come sit in on the first class and see what it is like - no obligation. As long as all attendees are in the Portland area, I am gonna try to have only the first class in person in a park - careful to social distance. I may still end up going with Zoom, though.

On Camera I Acting - June 15th

I have had to postpone my On Camera I class, so it will be starting on Monday the 15th of June. The price has been reduced due to having one less class.
There are still audit spots left, if you wanna check out the first class without obligation.
Best.

Online Acting Class - April 29th

I will be hosting on Zoom my On Camera I acting class starting Wednesday the 29th of April. Drop me a note if you are interested, and know that your deposit saves your spot.

I realize it may seem weird to having an acting class online. But for "on camera" acting class, this venue actually works very well. I was teaching this class before Covid-19, and have worked out most of the kinks and find it to be very effective. However, I understand that this is a new way of doing things and it a bit of a mystery to most of you. So, if you are interested in taking this class but unsure about committing, come join the first class - no obligation - and see what you think. I have a few spots available for “auditors”. If you then find that you wanna take the class, and there are still spaces available, you can join the class at that point. Do make sure you reserve your audit spot in advance, though.

You don’t need to join Zoom to take the class and you don’t need any new software. You wanna have a solid internet connection with good bandwidth and a fairly well-lit room. It will work on smartphones as well as computers, but the best option involves you having both hands free. So, computers work best. If you wanna use your smartphone, I recommend getting a tripod or a holder of some sort. Below I have a photo of what I rigged for my phone.

Email me if you are thinking of joining or if you have any questions.

Cheers!

Ted
