Class Experience
Give your child the confidence and freedom to explore their imagination, work as a team and use their voice to share their ideas. This imaginative and engaging class will utilize games to develop skills that will help your child feel empowered, open, and comfortable in their skin on-camera. Then, we will use those skills to work on commercial, tv and film scripts. We will practice listening, taking direction, and acting for the camera. On-camera auditions will feel right at home with the skills your performer develops in this course.

I love Heidi's class. She's an excellent actress and acting coach and works hard to ensure every student performs their best while being super supportive. I've learned a lot and highly recommend her class.

I really enjoyed this workshop! It was interesting to watch the auditions and hear the adjustments from both coaches. And then having “callbacks” on the second day and incorporating what we learned to make our auditions better. Both coaches had positive constructive criticism and were very encouraging to everyone. It was a very positive environment and a very complete training experience. I feel like I am already a better actor for attending this workshop. Thank you! Sincerely, Nancy Cole
Improvements:
Can’t think of any improvements, the set up was very professional and the videotaped auditions all looked and sounded good!

Having a working professional share real and practical techniques for On Camera opportunities. The class size worked very well for questions and working through the exercises. I also love the multiple options of class days and times.
