SUMMARY:John at the Actory in Miami
DESCRIPTION:To register\, please email cj@theactory.com  \nJohn returns to The Actory with classes for Youth and Adult and a special Content Creation Course! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE  \nFRIDAY\, FERUARY 10TH\nCHECK\, PLEASE! (Part 1)| Ages 14+ | 6pm-9pm\nCap at 16 students \nNeed Original Content for your website or your Actors’ Access? This course will help you get it and will unfold in three stages.1) You participate in the writing of a scene from an original scene template where you create critical portions of the dialogue or if two scene partners prefer\, they can write their own totally original diner scene with John’s guidance\, then–2) Actors rehearse and re-tool the scene with their scene partner on Friday\, Feb. 10th\, then–3) Actors perform scenes on tape on either Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon \nThe background for the scene will be a diner/restaurant. It could be a date\, a break-up or both\, a betrayal or possibly\, the discovery of a murder. Scenes will begin or end with the line “Check\, please!” \nAs soon as actors register\, they will be teamed up with a partner\, then scheduled for a zoom appointment with John\, where they will decide the direction of the scene. Actors can just perform an original script without being involved in the writing or they can have a hand in crafting their own. \nIf you’re willing to get creative with a scene and risk something in the process\, this is the course for you!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 11TH\nMagic Rectangle | Age Range: 7-13 | 9:30-11:30 AM\n \nDe-mystify acting for the camera with John’s simple math for delivering dynamic and indelible on-camera performances. John’s simple camera math technique will immediately improve student’s taped auditions by imposing structure on the imaginary canvas of the fourth wall that exists around the camera. This is a great place to start if you have not previously trained with John. This is one of John’s signature classes that he has taught in Hollywood and across America. Get ready for your taped auditions to dramatically improve!  \nActive Interrogation | Ages 7-13 |12-2 PM\n \nActing Interrogation is a technique\, developed by John D’Aquino\, that infuses true human reaction into scripted lines. Actors typically experience a disconnect between how they would organically respond versus how they respond to a line of dialogue they were anticipating. This technique illuminates human traits that you use every day that you may not understand how to employ in your work. The great thing is\, you’re already doing it! You’re just not bringing it to your work.  \n \n  \nVixens\, Villains\, and Voldemorts: Becoming the Villian | Ages 14+ | 2:30-5 PM\nOften\, the Hero isn’t the most interesting character. The people we remember are the Villains! You know\, the people we love to hate? But what makes a villain a villain? Why do we hate them? Why do they seem to be having so much fun being evil? In this course\, we’ll dive into the background\, archetypes\, psychology\, and nuances of these wonderfully\, horrible characters and let you work on scenes with some psychotic and iconic antagonists. Tap into your ability to be evil\, cunning and despicable and have a blast doing it!  \nCHECK\, PLEASE! (Part 2) | Ages 14+ | 5:30-9 PMGroup 1 \nContent Creation performers (Group 1) will shoot their scenes according to their call time. We will set the stage with elements of a restaurant with waiters and customers in the background. This is where we finally bring your work to life!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, FEBRUARY 12TH\nThe Actor’s Environment | Ages 7-13 | 9:30-11:30 AM\nEXT. GRAVEYARD – NIGHT. The cold breeze cuts to the bone. The spirits are restless and this will be a night like none other. For this is the night of the Reckoning.” – Are you interested\, yet? Scared? Can you feel the cold wind? Do you see the strange clouds cutting across the moon? Are you shivering from the cold\, the fear or both? Well… what if that’s the environment of the audition you are about to tape? Are you allowing the environment to affect your character? What if we change the location to Key West in August. How does the oppressive heat and humidity affect the mood of your character as you await the next big storm? Can you feel the weight of what lies ahead and does it fill you with trepidation? \nWell\, it’s our job to feel… everything! It’s what we get paid to do. Most actors don’t even allow the environment to affect their character\, their behavior and their choices. Most actors\, of course\, don’t work. Working actors know that the key element that the great writers impose the environment upon the characters. How will you incorporate that into your character for the scene? Whether it’s an interior or exterior\, busy city or desert landscape\, the environment informs the actor. Learn how to become the character living truthfully in their environment and bring your auditions to life!  \nActive Interrogation | Ages 14+ |12-2 PM\n \nActing Interrogation is a technique\, developed by John D’Aquino\, that infuses true human reaction into scripted lines. Actors typically experience a disconnect between how they would organically respond versus how they respond to a line of dialogue they were anticipating. This technique illuminates human traits that you use every day that you may not understand how to employ in your work. The great thing is\, you’re already doing it! You’re just not bringing it to your work.  \nCHECK\, PLEASE! (Part 2) | Ages 14+ | 2:30-6:30 PMGroup 2 \nContent Creation performers (Group 2) will shoot their scenes according to their call time. We will set the stage with elements of a restaurant with waiters and customers in the background. This is where we finally bring your work to life!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPRICING\n\nOne Class: $175 \nTwo Classes: $250\nCHECK\, Please! (Content Creation Course): $300

SUMMARY:Test-Emily
DESCRIPTION: JDAW is updating our website!!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are excited to announce that we will be introducing an entirely new commerce and scheduling interface by integrating Acuity Scheduling into our website\, eliminating the need for a separate site (the old and clunky secure.johndaquino.net).  Our updated site will allow you to make purchases and schedule classes\, workshops and private sessions directly within our main site or by using the Acuity Scheduling App for Iphone and Android! \nWe will be launching the updated site at the beginning of 2023. Though the information and navigation on the johndaquino.net site will look the same\, how you purchase classes\, private coaching\, and events will change. All transactions will occur directly within our main site through built in links\, or\, preferably\, on the Acuity Scheduling app available for Apple and Android phones and tablets. The app will be the easiest and best way to purchase and schedule everything\, and it will give you access to all of your account info\, payment methods\, class and private session history\, etc.  \nTo Add the Acuity Scheduling App to your Phone\nIf you are viewing this on your computer\, please scan the code below from your phone to add the Acuity app and johndaquino.net as your provider. If viewing this email on your phone\, click on the image below to add the app and have johndaquino.net added as your provider. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurchasing & Scheduling Classes\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMenu Items\nAs shown above\, all menu pull downs now give you direct access to scheduling and purchasing appointments. \nReservations\nYou will need to reserve any class you wish to attend in advance. Zoom links will change every week\, so the only way to attend the class and get the link will be by reserving the class on our website.  \nIndividual Class Credit Purchase\nIf you want to attend a single class on a specific date and time\, you will do so by reserving your space in the class and paying at the time of your reservation by going to the Book Class link on our front page. Acuity will then send you the zoom link for the class directly and be available within the Acuity app as well. \nBulk Class Credit Purchase\nYou can click the Purchase Credits tab where there will be a “View Products/Packages” tab for purchasing 4-packs of credits good for one month or monthly unlimited classes plan (charged monthly to your card automatically) at a significant discount. Once the bulk purchase is on your account\, the system will allow you to schedule all the classes in advance up to the number of credits you purchased. Just go to the class you want to reserve\, pick your timezone and click on the class time you want to select the date and you’re good to go. The class zoom link and info will appear in your app and be emailed to you to add to your calendar. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurrent Yearly Subscription Students\nWe will be discontinuing the “Yearly Unlimited” and having the monthly unlimited classes plan listed above instead. This will allow you to pay for the yearly plan on a monthly basis instead of all at once and cancel whenever you want. \nIf you are currently within your Yearly subscription\, you will receive a special code giving you unlimited classes to use until the code expires on the final day of your original subscription. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurchasing Private Coachings\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIndividual Private Coaching \nAs with classes\, if you only want to purchase one private session\, select Book a Coaching to see our coaches\, their availability\, and price per hour. Click on the coach you want to work with\, reserve the day/time they are available\, add your time zone and the necessary registration info\, and you’re good to go!  \nBulk Coaching Sessions\nIf you prefer to purchase discounted bulk sessions\, go to the Purchase Credits tab where there will be 4-packs of coaching credits  at a discount.

All private sessions will be scheduled online via the app. \nConsults \nWhen you book a session with either John or Paige\, there will be an option to make the session into a career consultation for an additional fee.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClass Changes\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNEW Teen Saturday Improv Class\nWe will be starting back up our Saturday Improv Class for ages 14-early 20’s from 11am-1pm (PST)! This class will be led by our improv teacher Michelle Gilliam.  \n*Hiatus* Singing for the Actor\nOur Monday’s Singing for the Actor’s Class will be on hiatus until further notice.  \nNeed Help?\nWe will be hosting a New Website Walkthrough on Saturday\, January 7thfrom 9-10am (PST). Join our site manager Danny Kosarin as he walks you through how to navigate and make purchases through the new site.CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
