Many actors are intimidated when they step into a real audition or production set. Agora Film Actors Lab will help actors to hone their skills. Our goal is to make actors confident with what they know and comfortable with what to expect. Agora is the only one-stop facility for actors and filmmakers in the region. The Film Actors Lab is held in our fully equipped production studio space. Our teachers are working industry professionals. Students are being filmed constantly because seeing yourself on film helps you to identify your strong and weak points.
The Film Actors Lab is a class that will teach you the step-by-step process of auditioning on camera from cold reads to callbacks. The FAL gives you the tools you need to be successful in the Entertainment industry such as: preparation for shoots, on-set etiquette, experience blocking & shooting on sound stage sets, learning to take direction, and an insider's look at the production process in motion. The FAL consists of four weekly meetings of approximately three hours in length. Every week your audition is filmed, played back and critiqued by you, the class and the instructor.
