Film Video Media: Acting/Directing for the Screen Certificate

In this selective entry certificate program, students will explore many tools for honing and enriching their craft. It is the mission of the Acting faculty at Colorado Film School to help actors discover their full potential as professionals, as well as help them develop strength and creativity as individuals. This mission is integrated into the Acting / Directing program for the school. The approach of the acting faculty at CFS encourages students to discover each character within themselves, bringing honesty and specificity to each moment. The program also focuses on Boulgakova's techniques that train actors to emerge from each character safely and to work as strong members of any ensemble. Students who complete the program will understand the Stanislavski system and techniques, they'll understand how film works, and they'll have a professional acting portfolio to begin auditioning in the industry. They'll be equipped to work on any film or television set in the world.
