ACTING 101: 6 Week Beginning Technique and Scene Study with Pete Jensen, Award-winning Screenwriter and TV Writer, Director, Teacher, and Acting coach

2:00 pm - If you've been thinking about starting a career as an actor, Acting 101 is the PERFECT way to start off. You'll work with Pete Jensen who will introduce you to a variety of approaches to Acting, Stage basics, Terminology and the Craft of Acting.

Acting begins with the ability to be your authentic self in the present moment. Pete will begin with imagination exercises and improvisation to help you be present, truthful, and therefore more compelling onstage or onscreen. You'll then work your way into text and performing scenes, covering the basics of scene analysis: discovering character, point-of-view, working off your partner, making it personal, finding objectives, and building up circumstances and emotional stakes.

These techniques will help you prepare for roles and auditions, and find your authenticity as an actor.

Pete Jensen is an award-winning screenwriter and TV writer, director, teacher, and acting coach. He holds an MFA in Film from Columbia University, where he studied theater with Anne Bogart. As an acting coach, he has helped actors and comedians book roles on TV shows such as Suburgatory, Law & Order, Gossip Girl, Party Down, and many others, as well as several independent films. He's currently in development with a TV pilot for cable TV.

Class size is limited to 14 to ensure personalized attention and plenty of time with each actor.
