Screen Acting

 

Studying screen acting is about learning to be natural and truthful on camera.  The technical aspects are important but it is often a matter of learning to ignore the camera and allow it to find you.  The camera will reveal your personality and your reactions to what is happening in the scene or your thoughts before you speak the line.  Listening and connecting emotively to the text are important tools for screen actors as is the ability to take direction and be flexible in your approach.  Often the best moments on-screen can be non-verbal moments so it is necessary to always take time.

Adult Beginners
