Screen Acting Close Up

Synopsis
This DVD includes three master classes. In ‘Audition with Confidence’, casting director Catherine Willis provides practical advice on how an actor should prepare for a screen audition. She shows the casting process most commonly in use today, outlines ways to avoid the pitfalls of interview ‘overkill’, and offers valuable advice to actors on their approach to casting. In ‘Screen Acting Close Up’, TV director Nic Phillips explains some of the basic technical skills an actor needs to master to perform successfully for the camera. With specially created scenes, a group of young actors illustrate some of the fundamental ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts ' of screen craft. In ‘Making the Business Your Business’, producer Tim Kent offers practical advice on finding an agent and establishing an acting career.
