Linda Ann Watt is Offering a Master Class Online
There will be 7-weekly sessions, 7-9PM, starting Tuesday, May 9, 2023.
Academy of Acting for Film and Theatre is offering Watt's Master Class Acting & Scene Study online live for 7-weekly sessions, 7-9PM, starting Tuesday, May 9, 2023. This class is highly participatory and space is very limited to give personalized attention to each actor. The curriculum includes relaxation, sense memory, "what if," voice projection, on-camera cold reading technique, in-depth scene study, and "the business of acting."
The principles of Stanislavski, Strasberg, Meisner, Adler, Hagen and Katselas are explored including studies on the neuroscience of acting. Although "Master Class Acting & Scene Study" is designed for those wishing to enhance their career in acting for theatre and film, professionals in other fields can benefit. According to Watt, "This class equips anyone to be at ease in a public speaking setting." Watt's book, The Actors Manifesto; Create a Successful Acting Career is available on Amazon and complements the class.
Academy of Acting for Film and Theatre also offers "Workshop Advanced for the Working Actor," an ongoing advanced online Method acting class for professional actors (by invitation with audition) on Wednesdays, 7-9PM.
