Disclaimer: This program has expectations of professionalism, group work, intimacy between actors, whispering, consensual touching, combat training, expressions of physicality, deep exploration of self, personal psychological examination, conflict, and successful failure.

The Acting for Media two-year diploma program is your gateway to mastering the art of screen acting. Our comprehensive curriculum covers a range of skills, including acting technique, movement, voice, and script analysis. You’ll learn to embody characters convincingly, refine your on-camera presence, and navigate the etiquette and standards of auditioning.
As a graduate, you won’t just be a skilled actor—you’ll possess a deep understanding of the industry’s historical context, structure, hierarchy, and professional standards. Through workshop simulations, on-camera exercises, voice-over demonstrations, green-screen training, and motion-capture training, you’ll have all the essential skills you need to succeed in the field.
But we don’t stop there––as the film landscape evolves, so does our program. You’ll explore emerging technologies like phonography and immersive environments, enhancing your readiness for the future of screen acting.
We’ve limited enrolment for this program so we can provide each student with the individual attention they need to excel. Admission is competitive and is based on the results of auditions and interview questions.
