This exciting course for young actors is a unique introduction to the overall process of creating a video from start to finish. Participants will rehearse and block a script written for them by a professional screenwriter.  They will work as a team to design the set, costumes and sound.  The script is then videotaped with the participants as the actors. Not only will they participants perform in the video, they will learn about many of the other roles on set. Once everything has been shot, the film will be professionally edited and screened for friends & family.

By following this process our young actors will:

Act in a mini-movie written with them in mind

Learn how to find a story in a scene 

Discover what a director is looking for during taping

Work in an actual production setting

Learn how to ensure continuity in a scene 

See how scenes are cut and manipulated

Find out how an actor can end up on the proverbial, "cutting room floor"
