Fall: Spotlight on Acting for Film 

631-653-2121

Are you a movie buff?  Do you love to act and  write?  This unique class, new to Spotlight, will teach students the art of acting for film.  In addition, students will learn what it takes to create and write a screenplay.  There is nothing else like this on the East End!  This is a twelve week program which will culminate in a professionally shot high definition short film, to be screened at the Vail-Leavitt Music Hall in Riverhead.

Students will experience the entire creative process, starting with the screenplay.  We will use an established, classic story and update it into a modern day film. Through improvisation and creative writing, students will develop characters and embellish upon the basic story to create an original screenplay. Students will learn the subtle art of acting for film and will shoot in our "studio" (class space) as well as on location.

This class will take place on Sundays, from 2-4:30pm, at the Grange Theatre in Riverhead (Northville).  Please note, when shooting begins (mid-October), students will need to be available for extended hours on an as-needed basis.  We will try and keep our shoots to Sundays, but may need extra days as schedules allow.
