TV PRESENTING & ACTING FOR THE CAMERA COURSES

.."Thank you very much for organising for Annelies to film with us yesterday . Kate, the director, told me that she was fantastic..." Brian Waddell Productions

The course includes: understanding cameras, shot size, angles, lighting, the roles of crew on set, the equipment, the lingo and the way the screen industries work, giving students a basic understanding of the screen industry, so that they are not intimidated by it.

The students are on screen as much as possible to get used to being in front of a camera, so that they can also watch themselves back and objectively analyze their performances with the tutor.  The course will also include: practice casting - sessions, taking direction, cheating-to-camera, hitting marks, learning lines, timekeeping, as well as learning how to promote oneself as an actor.

Time:           Wednesday evenings 7pm - 9pm
Fees:            1 Term (10 Weeks) £195

Our comprehensive 1 - 2 or 3-day TV Acting and Presenters Master class includes everything that you need to know about acting and presenting for camera. A video camera will be used throughout.

The acting techniques explored will be for: a Soap Opera, for Adverts, for TV Drama, for Films, as well as Presenting for MTV, for Daytime TV, for News Programmes, and for Chat Shows.
