One class. Three weekly sessions.

We offer Acting for Film—with three weekly time options so you can choose the schedule that fits. Tuition is $200/month (4 classes: 3 in-studio sessions + 1 end-of-month On‑Set Lab). In the On‑Set Lab, actors perform on set and leave with footage they can actually use for their reels.
