A  practical, confidence-building seminar designed to prepare actors for the realities of professional film and television sets.

The seminar introduces the structure and workflow of a film set, explaining who’s who, what different departments do, and how actors fit into the wider production process. Participants learn essential set etiquette, terminology, and expectations, helping them feel comfortable, prepared, and professional from their first call time.

Key topics include understanding blocking, hitting marks, continuity, and working efficiently with the camera across multiple takes and setups. The seminar also explores how actors collaborate with directors, cinematographers, and crew, as well as how to adapt performances for different shot sizes and technical requirements.

By demystifying the technical side of filmmaking, the seminar empowers actors to focus on truthful performance while navigating the practical demands of a working set. It is ideal for actors new to screen work or those transitioning from stage to screen who want to arrive on set informed, confident, and ready to work.
