Description:
The SAG-AFTRA Los Angeles Conservatory offers a low-cost opportunity for members to hone and develop their craft through classes, workshops, lectures and symposia. To learn more visit: sagaftra.org/laconservatory.
The most powerful tool you have as an actor is YOU. In this workshop you’ll learn how the industry sees you, what makes you unique from others in your category and how to be “yourself" in every aspect of the business. You’ll discover how to excel within the confines of a typecasting industry and bring your niche to every aspect of your work, from acting to marketing. Landing an agent, getting auditions and booking work starts by embracing your unique type but developing your niche is the secret to fast-tracking your career and achieving your dreams.
