Hello fellow actors. Just in case you don't know, allow me to introduce ACTOR FACTORY OHIO. AFO specializes in developing Cleveland/Akron/Lorain area local actors wanting on-camera acting training, instruction, and opportunities. My tactics are like no other and my students can confirm that I can possibly make the difference in your acting pursuits. Whether in it for a career or fun, ACTOR FACTORY OHIO can assist you without breaking your bank. I teach skills in all elements of acting like auditioning, scene study, monologues, self taping, cold reads, and improvisation--just to name a few. I also consult actors with knowledge needed for the business aspect of acting, the off-camera concerns. Classes are held in the Greater Cleveland area (various locations to serve you). Check out our Spring schedule and see if there is a virtual or in-person course for you or family/friends (group and 1:1). DEMO REEL ACTING CLASS: This course focuses on getting actors an industry standard demo reel by being cast in 3 of 6 short films to be released this Summer/Fall. You pretty much cast yourself! Only 5 actors per class and you film all your scenes in one day. The next one is Sun, 4/10 from 11a-6p. This is the most innovative project to hit the industry recently.
