1st team actors
curriculum
The class is going to be broken up into portion since it will be 8 weeks:
1. Script Analysis for 2 weeks - what do we look for in the script? How do we breakdown the scripts? Putting thoughts behind words
2. Partner Work 2 Weeks- We will be doing scene style work with the kids, depending on numbers we will pair off and perform in front of the class
3. Camera Work 2 Weeks - We will be putting scenes on Camera, getting them familiar with how to properly tape, eye lines, buttons etc. (all of those terms will make sense to the students after the Script Analysis).
4. Commercial Work - This will be a mix of smaller commercial auditions that kids will be getting in their age range (this will encompass camera work)
The idea is to build the kids up bit by bit and get them ready for camera work, which all starts with understanding and breaking down the script.
Each class we will start out with an activity to get them loose and try and burn off some energy, we will also take intermittent breaks for activities to try and keep them focused. The 1st 2 weeks are not going to be AS fun, but they will still have a good time.
