Hi one and all,
What a year!
I set the school up 34 years ago and during that time I’ve trained numerous high-profile actors – I can’t watch TV without seeing students in TV commercials, TV drama and feature films, so I can’t complain, that’s for sure.
Every year, we concentrate more on one area of acting for the camera, and this year it was physical performance: what do we see on your face, in your body language?
What you DO is far more important than what you SAY, because that is how we interpret your performance, based on what you DO, less on what you SAY. The looks on your face, the way your body is used to subtly shade physicality of the performance.
The picture below will highlight what I’ve been saying …

2023 Adult Film Acting Course
A bit of a last minute addition to the Summer workshops is the adult workshop.
Actor and Master Class tutor Peter Phelps contacted me this week asking if I can set up a workshop for him.
Ideally the course will be held on Saturday 14 to Sunday 15 January.
If you’re interested, let me know and we’ll take it from there.

Student News
What a year it’s been for our students and graduates!
Our students have been doing the lot – from extra work to featured actors in TV commercials, TV drama and feature films.
But the standout this year has been Katy Tunbridge, who after moving to Los Angeles a year ago, has created a career in TV drama, Voice Overs, and even a music career.
Her 2nd single released from her new album has been selling very well and has established Katy as a force to be reckoned with.
