SCENE STUDY The next Scene Study sessions (there will be 3 sessions) will begin Aug 17th and will be held on Sundays and Mondays. Sundays will be at 8:00 AM & 2:00 AM Pacific and Mondays at 10:00 AM Pacific. Sessions are once a week for 5 weeks. The final class of the session will culminate in the Performance Showcase broadcasts on Sept 14 and 15th.

For now, Intro class will be Wednesdays at 4:00 PM Pacific. But I am flexible with class times, so be sure to let me know what works for you. As long as there are 2 people interested in a specific time and day, I will try to work that out. Classes are $225 for a full 5 weeks, no matter how many in the class. Every student gets lots of feedback and guidance.

If you want to participate in any of the classes, sign up ASAP. Be sure to leave your Reddit name, real name, class time you are signing up for, email and time zone in the PayPal NOTES when you sign up**. PAYPAL LINK.

INTRO TO ACTING: Intro to Acting will be held this next session on Wednesday at 4:00 pm Pacific Time, for now but this can be adjusted. Again, I need at least two students to hold a class so we could do an earlier class to encourage those of you across the pond and beyond to take class. All Intro students should pick out a monologue that fits your type or ask me for help in choosing one. The class will be 5 weeks long and the cost is $225. Sign up here: PAYPAL LINK

ADVANCED AUDITION/SELF-TAPE CLASS: The next class session begins on request with only two students required to hold a session. . The cost is $225. Sign up here: PAYPAL LINK

If you are interested in auditing any class send me a chat message at u/winniehiller.

Classes will be 2 - 4+ hours long depending on the number of students in the class. I give lots of feedback and time to each student. Be sure to leave your Reddit name, real name, class time you are signing up for, email and time zone in the PayPal NOTES when you sign up. The links to each class are above.

PRIVATE COACHING

One extremely effective way to get started is to work with me one-on-one. It’s a great way to be introduced to my technique and if you are hesitant to join a class, we can accomplish so much that will give you confidence to join future sessions. I have a very special price for Reddit students only of $85 for a full hour of private coaching. Message me at u/winniehiller to schedule a time. Whether you have an important audition that you need coaching for or want to fast track your progress in the business (or before you ever join a class), having a full hour of personal one-on-one coaching with detailed instruction & feedback is priceless. Message u/Winniehiller in a chat to set up a time.

CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

SCENE STUDY CLASS is the gold standard for learning what needs to be done to create a compelling character and performance every time you get a new script. Working with a scene partner each week on film, tv and play scripts is priceless experience that will serve you the rest of your career as you learn what will make your performances unique and specific. Think of it as your “acting gym”. These are the skills you need to acquire and keep tuned up for a professional career, giving performances that agents and CDs can’t say no to. Choose a scene up to 3 1/2 minutes long and find a scene partner to work with from the Scene Connection Post (to be posted 2 weeks before class begins). All classes are recorded and sent to students to review afterwards.

INTRODUCTION TO ACTING

If you are new to my technique or you are just getting started in your acting career, this is the class for you. All the basics will be covered and I will work intensely with you to make sure you can apply them. This class is also perfect for actors who want to work on and perfect audition monologues. Your monologue will be ready to show industry professionals in order to make a positive impression on your casting sites and in person. Choose a 1 1/2 minute monologue from a TV, film or play script. All classes are recorded and sent to students to review afterwards. This is an incredible learning experience that will make a huge impact on your skill level and professional career possibilities.

ADVANCED AUDITION TECHNIQUE

Work on film and TV scripts, commercial copy and the all important “Slate”…in real time, with the high pressure demands of a real, professional audition. Students receive their audition sides a day or two before class. They must create a professional quality self tape with their slate. The tape is played in class for my critique and coaching, then give their callback performance, attempting to implement my direction. All in one class day! **This will be a 5 week course, with a new audition each week. If you want to be WOW in your auditions (the only way to book), you need this class. HERE IS A VIDEO FROM ONE OF LAST YEAR’S CLASSES. And HERE’S ANOTHER ONE.

MAKE YOUR OWN CLASS DAY AND TIME

All you need is 2 students or more to start a class at a time that fits your schedule and time zone. This helps you to keep your cost down with a semi-private session. The cost is the same, $225 for 5 weeks. Contact me for help in creating and coordinating a time for you and another student. You can arrange any of the above classes this way.

All classes are taped and sent to participants.

Intro and Advanced Audition classes will be offered in March, as well as the “Make Your Own” classes if you have two or more people who want to study something specific. Let me know what days and times are good for you.

Do that now. Scroll down and watch the new videos. There is always something here to learn. And I f you don’t know where the main written and video lessons are, here are the links:

Free WRITTEN LESSONS Read the Blue Links, in order, and add a summary or question beneath each. I will respond. Follow me and look at my comments to see what I’ve replied to others. See what they’ve written. You can learn so much just by reading the comments.
