Lights, camera, action! In this fun and interactive workshop, young actors will learn what it’s like to perform on camera for film and TV. Students will explore the key differences between stage acting and film acting—like using smaller, more natural expressions and connecting with the camera. We’ll also introduce the basics of on-camera auditions, helping kids build confidence as they practice simple scenes and learn how to take direction. Through games, exercises, and guided practice, students will gain skills they can use in auditions, school projects, or just for fun! No experience needed—just a willingness to play, imagine, and try something new!
