Are you sick of so-so sodas and snacks with no crunch? Do you want luxurious shiny hair and a car insurance policy that gives you total peace of mind? Well, get in line!
However, if you want to perfect making OTHER PEOPLE consider these things, this workshop can help.
You’ve got acting experience, but want to learn or hone the skills needed to up your game with on-camera commercials. This class will build on the foundation you’ve got, and sharpen the tools you’ll use to master the various styles of commercial spots common today.
We’ll focus on in-person auditions (since we’ll have the benefit of those circumstances), as well as the demands of being on-set or on-location for the job itself. We’ll get you in front of the camera, taking direction, and analyzing/discussing your fellow students’ work. We’ll employ the more challenging styles of spots; ones with no dialogue, or with CGI elements, or shot in tight close-ups, or with clunky expositional dialogue. If you’ve taken Joe’s class before, this one will use entirely new spots.
Come join us and get the edge you need in this highly competitive market!
