Class Description

PTW's Television Acting, Television Commercials, and Film Acting classes are designed to give young actors the skills and insights needed to work in front of the camera. In the TV Acting, TV Commercials, and Film Acting classes, students learn commercial and TV/Film audition techniques from our professional, industry instructors. We prepare the students for professional auditions and work environments by using actual commercials and scripts that have aired on TV, and then having students watch their performance back. The teacher helps the students recognize what they are doing well and helps the student assess opportunities for growth to quick progress to the next level of performance!

Students are carefully placed in a class appropriate to their age, level and experience. Private acting and drama lessons are also available.
