PERFORM: Performance Craft

2 courses, in the order they are meant to be taken. You can start anywhere, and they build.

How to read the course codes
  • -00 means start here.
  • -01, -02 are steps on one path, in order.
  • A letter (-T1, -P2) marks a track. Tracks run in parallel: take any track you like, in any order, without taking the others.
  • -99 is the capstone. Take it last.

Start here

  1. PERFORM-00

    Acting: The Frame, the Stage, and the Read

    Start here. Everything else in this series assumes it.

    A course about the half of acting that can honestly be taught at a distance: how to read a script for what a character wants, what every shot size does to a performance, how stage, film, television, commercials, vertical video, and narration each ask for something different, and how to watch your own self-tape without lying to yourself. It teaches no coaching, promises no work, and says so in the first lesson.

The path

  1. PERFORM-01

    Voice Acting: The Instrument

    Step 1 on the single path through this series.

    Before auditions, demos, or a single paid read, there is the instrument: breath, vocal folds, articulators, the mic, and the room. This course teaches how your voice actually works, how to keep it healthy, how to record it cleanly at home, and how to break down a script, then closes with an honest map of the business, with no promises a course cannot keep.
