The Acting Certificate is designed for those who want to pursue an acting career in film, television, commercials and digital media. After taking a series of foundation courses, students hone their performance, auditioning, and improvisation skills under the guidance of acting professionals. Students have ample opportunity to perform in front of the camera and learn the practical business skills needed to succeed in the industry.

In this introduction to acting, learn fundamental performance techniques and exercises, including relaxation, concentration, sense memory, emotional recall, improvisation, character tasks, and text analysis. You then apply these techniques by rehearsing and performing monologues and two-character scenes. In-class partner work and weekly assignments are required.
