Six Month Full-time Program





OVERVIEW: Kirsten Clarkson, Artistic Director of Schoolcreative, has developed an intensive 6-month program offering a full spectrum of training for Film & TV. At the end of the program the actors perform in a showcase for industry professionals, family and friends. Actors also leave with a reel showcasing their work.

THE SIX-MONTH LEVEL ONE FULL TIME PROGRAM was created to illuminate and develop the inner life of the actor. Through self-discovery and the study of human nature via traditional theatre training in voice, movement, improv, and scene study actors work toward becoming thoughtful, provocative and entertaining artists.

Though our focus is on training the actor for the world of film and television we invoke classic methods of study because we believe these proven techniques are best when used to inspire, awaken and push the artist to excellence.

We have an outstanding roster of Instructors who are among the crème de la crème of Vancouver's film community. We also bring in Casting Directors to help our students to become first class auditioners. In addition to all this we arrange inspiring field trips for our students.

LEVEL 2 FULL TIME ACTING PROGRAM
THE INSPIRED ACTOR

THE INSPIRED ACTOR is designed to help actors find inspiration outside themselves and to further strengthen the skill set needed to build character using voice control, accents, physicalization, cultural influences, and historical figures.

An example of this style is Johnny Depp's creation of Captain Jack Sparrow through the inspiration he found in Keith Richards.
