The workshop begins with Screen Acting where participants will get to work with a film/television director where you will be given an excellent insight into the ways to best perform in front of a camera. The jargon, equipment, who does what in a film crew. Students are then filmed in various scripted or improvised scenarios and their work is played back to the group.

After a short break, by midday, participants will return for the second section of Audition Technique. This is a feet on the ground, no nonsense workshop designed to help give a step up for young or aspiring performers considering a career in 'the business'. Make the most of your audition experience by learning how to to create an acting CV, headshots, showreels, personal presentation, auditions to camera and side reading skills. This is geared to preparing individuals for an audition, offering physical training exercises, insider knowledge and help towards mental preparation - in particular a 'role horoscope' that anticipates the parts for which you are best suited.
