Hands-on Intensive 3-Week Acting for Film Workshop

OVERVIEW OF NYFA 3-WEEK ACTING CLASS

Want to study acting in some of the most beautiful places in the world? At the New York Film Academy, acting students can spend three weeks immersed in an intensive, hands-on course where they can learn to perform on set through, real-world experience. Any actor knows that giving a believable performance on a modern set isn’t as simple as it looks; they must maintain their composure while dozens of crewmembers whirl about, twelve kilowatt lights bore into the eyes, and focus tape is pulled to the actor's cheek. Through all of this clutter and distraction the actor is still expected to give a believable and moving performance. Combining classes and lectures from NYFA’s faculty of working industry professionals with tangible practice, students in the 3-Week Acting for Film Workshop will learn the essential skills they need to create a performance on screen.
