Learn Acting for Film Online at NYFA
NYFA’s Acting for Film School offers a series of online workshops designed to train students in the fundamentals of acting on-camera and auditioning, as well as industry best practices and self-branding guidance. Studying under the guidance of our experienced faculty of professional actors and directors, students receive feedback and creative critique on their craft.
Students also study a number of topics related to filmmaking and acting, including the business of acting. In addition to learning the skills required of an actor, students also build experience in public speaking, presentation, improv, and creative collaboration. No prerequisites or prior experience is required to attend.
Acting Programs
To accomodate all schedules, we offer online full-time and part-time acting workshops. Our longer full-time and part-time workshops offer students more exposure to hands-on elements and experience, and are recommended for students who wish to complete a variety of projects.
