From Stage to Screen

Service Description

Your theatre degree is complete; you’ve spent years working your craft on-stage, but aren't feeling prepared for film/television, commercials, or the industry as a whole. All graduates face the same question: how can I adapt my training to the camera and start pursuing a living as an actor? Beanduck Studios presents “FROM STAGE TO SCREEN”,. a workshop tailor-made for recent theatre graduates to get them practicing and learning in a supportive environment alongside their peers. Each of the six 4-hour classes kicks off with a discussion or technical exercises on a range of topics including script analysis, auditioning, set life, breaking down film terminology, and how to approach the industry safely and successfully. Information is powerful, but so is practice, and therefore the majority of the class focuses on giving opportunities to perform in front of the lens: "actor roles", full scenes, and mock auditions. Finally, the workshop culminates in the filming of scenes in-studio, using professional cameras, lighting, and sound, so that participants can leave with a scene for their demo reels. WHAT TO EXPECT In "Stage to Screen", our curriculum includes (but is not limited to): - Script Breakdown Techniques - “Actor Roles” (1-3 liners) - Understanding the frame & imagining the space - Monologues - Auditioning: how to prepare and what to expect - Mock Auditions (fiction & commercial) - Agencies and demo materials - Lots of on-camera practice - Final scenes filmed for your demos **BONUS OFFER** Participants will also receive access to "Act One: Beginning Your Acting Career", a digital class that covers the business side of the industry. https://www.theactingtoolkit.com/courses/ActOne ELIGIBILITY Must have graduated from a theatre program as of Jan 2020.
