Course Overview
The HubStudio is excited to announce it’s first continuation series for film and streaming craft work. Focusing soley on self taping and audition materials, and working with various coaches across the on-going series. The Actors Audition Gym will help working professionals achieve a much higher continued standard of work, using momentum, accountability, craft skills, group support and peer to peer mentoring, as well as the deliverables of great screen test work each week.
This repeatable series will allow actors to work with multiple coaches across multiple 6wk blocks. It’s not a drop in as such, but a community built continuation of the work previously held in the past series, with prior participants receiving priority placement and early bird pricing. The series is also focused on special Wednesday morning sessions for those actors more available during the day, or who would rather not work at night.
There is a saying that in order to stay fresh ‘Writers write’ but what about actors…do we ‘act’ enough? How to stay fit as an actor between work and auditions requires discipline and dedication. It is also essential if you want the confidence to know you are agile and electrified when auditions come your way or when you land a job and you’re required to work right away.
The courses will cover:
Script analysis: Learn how to break down your audition scenes. Get clear about the Given Circumstances, what the writer is asking of you and how best you can be a conduit for them.
Imagination work: learning ways to personalise your choices so that your characters are authentic and electrified.
Focus: learn to stay concentrated, in the moment and focused on your objectives in scene work.
Relaxation: the nervous system can be a tricky beast to wrangle but you will learn ways to be in the drivers seat. This course is aimed to give you tools to maintain a positive mindset and live an inspired life as an actor.
It’s imperative that working actors develop their craft alongside other contemporaries and leaders, this series is exactly that, from the inside out, by experienced professional Australian actors who know what it takes. Come Join Us!
