CHARLES ASCELLO SAG/AFTRA

Our fully comprehensive six-month course consists of the following two classes that run simultaneously. Please call or email us for one of our free introductory classes today.

Scene-Monologue Study
Stanislavski - Method?? Don't worry about what it's called, work on being believable, interesting, and exciting to watch!" - C.A.
This class is necessary to evolve as an actor and strengthen your performing skills. We help you select and develop suitable monologues for presentation to agents and theatrical auditions.
Also, actors will perform contemporary and classical scenes with partners. All geared to raise your acting ability above the norm. Charles knows how to get actors over the top quickly, helping to find that key element, turning average performances into paid performances.
Included in the many things taught in this class are, line by line script analyses, arcs/beats, internalization, characterization, believability, blocking, creating your environment, and drawing your audience in.
On-Camera Class
"It is vital for an actor to understand the difference between stage and camera work especially in the audition process!" - C.A.
In this class we tape our students, play them back on television and critique their performance. It is important for the actor to see how they present themselves on screen.
Actors must also understand the major differences between stage and film work, and the art of acting and the audition process. Only after mastering on-camera and scene-monologue work can actors appreciate how both forms integrate. Students work alone, in pairs and in groups doing scenes and mimicking real auditions preparing them to land those jobs!
The many things studied in this class include cold readings, commercial work, improvisation, auditioning techniques, script analyses and slating. We also teach the complete business application including headshots, resumes, portfolios, agents, casting directors, self-promotion, unions, the audition process, principles, featured extras, and extras.

**Private Lessons Are Available**
