SATELLITE PROGRAMS

The Academy of Cinema and Television has expanded it’s nationally recognized program by offering talent across the country the opportunity to take part in classes similar to the classes offered in Phoenix. Throughout the educational process, the Academy of Cinema and Television believes in giving real world experience to our students, helping them put into practice skills taught in class to use by teaching the art of acting and modeling AND the business of the business. This is done by having our students meet with industry reps from New York and Los Angeles. This is the primary reason why our workshop programs are by invitation only.

The Workshops

The Academy of Cinema and Television workshops are four hours in length and are held once a month. During the program, the Academy of Cinema and Television will bring in top Hollywood and New York industry professionals (ie. casting directors, agents) for an exclusive one-on-one meeting with every workshop student. Workshops focus on the basic fundamentals of television acting, film acting or fashion commercial print modeling. The exclusive meeting and interviews with industry professionals during the workshop series enables students to put into practice what they have been taught, and gives them another networking opportunity with well known names in show business.

Industry Interviews

For three to six of our sessions (depending on program level), we will invite an agent, casting director or manager from either NYC or LA to meet with our students. The students will be asked to perform one of their pieces learned in class, in addition to participating in a cold read, which is determined by the guest agent, manager or casting director. 


Professional Photoshoot Session

Anna Clark

My daughter Anna began taking classes at the Academy of Cinema and Television less than two months ago. Within couple of weeks, we were visiting Los Angeles to meet with Anna's new manager. Since then, she has also received callbacks from two casting directors that she met through the Academy of Cinema and Television This past week, Anna went to LA to meet with an agent and audition for a leading role in a very exciting project (the details of which we unfortunately are not allowed to share). Shortly thereafter, we learned that Anna got the part, and she spent the weekend in LA on the set filming. In a nutshell, the last eight weeks have been a little girl's dream come true. We don't know what the future may hold, but our bags are already packed for our next exciting adventure!

Thanks again,
