A fully immersive training opportunity that goes far beyond the classroom.
This is not just an acting workshop.
This is your opportunity to train, rehearse, film, produce, and submit a professionally created short film to the festival circuit.
We will be producing a cinematic short film (under 20 minutes to meet most festival requirements) that will be submitted to at least three film festivals.
This experience is designed to help actors understand the entire filmmaking process while integrating John’s coaching into an actual production environment.
