ACT - Level 1

Film Acting Course for Adults

ACT Level 1 is an intensive 8-week course for beginning and intermediate adult actors to learn the CAST Studio approach to film acting.  In this class, you will build your acting abilities through teacher instruction, engaging acting exercises, scene work, and personal feedback. 

ACT 1 is the first step in your film acting journey. This foundational class covers all the basic skills and allows you lots of practice time to apply those skills to real film and TV scripts. You’ll learn the process of taking the words of the written script and making them come alive in a way that impacts the other actors in your scene and your audience!

“Shauna’s ACT 1 class has truly been a game changer for me. As a theatre actress, I struggled to find a class that could help me break through and truly understand the difference between stage and on-camera acting – and when I tell you THIS is the class? THIS is the class for you! Her experience, patience, and personalized approach create such a safe and inspiring environment. I went from zero callbacks to getting one within weeks of applying what I learned. Her knowledge and humility are unmatched, and I can’t wait to continue with ACT 2. Shauna is simply the best!”

“Shauna's vast array of acting skills shines through in her classes. I learned a lot, had a wonderful time, and gained some quality skills—especially things you can't learn from YouTube. Every class was definitely worth it; if you're serious about acting, this is where you want to be.”
