Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this on camera acting class:

Did you know that Horror films are one of the most popular film genres being shot and produced today? Audiences flock to see them whether low budget or full Hollywood productions.

Many stars including Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation), Brad Pitt (Cutting Class), Seth Rogen (Donnie Darko) and Jennifer Aniston (Leprechaun) got their start in films that have led to HUGE Hollywood careers.

Now, here's your chance to explore working in this thrilling industry with one of NY's top casting directors, teaching YOU the skills necessary to break into this very exciting area of the business!

Pamela will also cover ways to get started without an agent and how to make connections from trade shows to producers to writers.

Each week you'll explore on-camera the various areas of horror, thrillers and chillers including low budget horror films (Paranormal Activity, Torture Chamber, The Blair Witch Project), Monster movies (Dracula, Hellraiser, The Evil Dead, The Mist, Tremors), Chillers (The Exorcist, Amityville Horror), Psychological Thrillers (Silence of the Lambs, Dressed to Kill, Christine), modern day Horror films (The Ruins, The Skeleton Key, Paranormal Activity, The Descent, Saw, Hostel) and Sci-Fi Horror (I am Legend, Aliens, Signs, The Thing, Resident Evil, Event Horizon, War of the Worlds).

What to prepare:

  • In your first class, you'll be cast into a cold B movie horror scene with another actor and working with Pamela on-camera.
