Q: What is the difference between the 4 MONTH INTENSIVE course and WEEKLY CLASSES?
A: The Actors Studio's classes are divided into technique classes, script classes and camera classes. Both streams offer technique classes with identical content. Our 4 Month Intensive offers script and camera classes in addition as part of an intensive training experience.
Q: Can I apply if I have finished school but am only 17 years old?
A: Yes for 1 Year and 2 Year courses. Prospective students must be at least 17 years old at the date of application. Your application will be valid provided you will turn 18 within your first year of classes. For Truth Masterclasses all studnets must be over 18yrs at the time of enrolment.
Q: How many students in each class?
A: Class sizes are limited to a maximum of 15 persons.
Q: Does the studio offer drop-in classes?
A: No. We believe continuity and application over a period of time are a more effective approach to training. Drop in classes tend to offer a quick fix of creativity rather than a tangible development outcome. This is not our focus.
Q: Do I need to BOOK IN ADVANCE for an observation class?
A: Yes. Advance bookings are essential for observation classes. Bookings can be made by telephoning the studio a few days ahead of time.
Q: Are the classes suitable for recreational, public speaking or self development purposes?
A: No. Our training program is intensively geared toward preparing committed performers for professional work in theatre, film and television.
Q: Does the studio accept international students?
A: Yes, however please note that we are not an accredited CRICOS provider and therefore our course does not satisfy government requirements for student visa applications. International students pay the same fees as local students and are admited on a pay per place basis. Please also be aware that a high level of English language proficiency is required. Students for whom English is a second language are advised to seek an appointment with the studio prior to enrolling for classes to assess their suitability for our program.
Q: Are any forms of financial assistance available?
A: No. The Actors Studio Australia is an independent training institution. HECS and AUSTUDY are not available. |
