**NEW WORKSHOP ALERT!** Full info at beanduck.com/workshops

Your theatre degree is complete; you’ve spent years working your craft on-stage, but aren’t feeling prepared for film/television, commercials, or the industry as a whole. All graduates face the same question: how can I adapt my training to the camera and start pursuing a living as an actor?

Beanduck Studios presents “FROM STAGE TO SCREEN”, a workshop tailor-made for recent theatre graduates to get them practicing and learning in a supportive environment alongside their peers.

Each of the six 4-hour classes kicks off with a discussion or technical exercises on a range of topics including script analysis, auditioning, set life, breaking down film terminology, and how to approach the industry safely and successfully.

Information is powerful, but so is practice, and therefore the majority of the class focuses on giving opportunities to perform in front of the lens: “actor roles”, full scenes, and mock auditions.

Finally, the workshop culminates in the filming of scenes in-studio, using professional cameras, lighting, and sound, so that participants can leave with a scene for their demo reels.

**BONUS OFFER**
Participants will also receive access to “Act One: Beginning Your Acting Career”, a digital class that covers the business side of the industry.

It’s always very exciting to see in our class; he brings a dedication and intensity to his practice that really inspires us, and motivates the rest of the group.

But the most important thing we can take away from Nichita is that he encourages us to help him develop every facet of his performance range, not necessarily playing it safe within roles he knows he can nail right off the bat. He’s pushing to strengthen his whole kit so he can be ready for any audition.
