SUMMARY:Tuesday On-Camera Ages 10-13
DESCRIPTION:with John D’Aquino \n\n\n\n\n\nFrom the audition to performing on set\, this class is designed to prepare actors for a professional career. Weekly lesson plans range from character prep\, script analysis\, adjusting performance to specific genres with an intense focus on both popular comedies and dramas.
