8-Week On-Camera Acting for tweens (Ages 9–13)

For young actors ready to feel confident on camera and experience what a real film set is actually like!

This is not a drop-in kids’ class. It’s a small, focused group (max 10 students) where tweens learn:

• How film acting differs from theatre

• How to feel natural and grounded on camera

• Professional set etiquette and vocabulary

• Focus, presence, and emotional truth

Over 8 weeks, we build real screen skills — then apply them on a fully produced shoot day with a professional crew.

Limited to 10 spots.

What We Build Over 8 Weeks

• On-camera fundamentals (eye lines, framing, subtlety)

• Breaking theatre habits that don’t translate to film

• Emotional truth and presence

• Set vocabulary and professionalism

• Confidence that carries beyond acting

Who This Is For

This course is ideal for tweens who:

• Are transitioning from theatre to film

• Are new to screen acting but eager to learn

• Want to feel more confident speaking and performing

• Are curious about how film sets actually operate

No experience required — just willingness and curiosity.

The Final Shoot Day

In our final week, we step onto a real set.

Each student:

• Has a role

• Works with a professional crew

• Experiences blocking, marks, sound, and camera setups

• Walks away with edited footage

“Oner” from Last Years summer camp

A "oner" in film is a single, uninterrupted, and long take that captures a scene in real-time without any visible physical cuts. It typically involves complex choreography of actors, camera movement, and lighting, designed to immerse the audience and create a sense of continuous, live action, such as in 1917 or Goodfellas.
