Drama Attack!

Three- Day Acting Workshop

Looking for something special to do these hols? Try Drama Attack! In this three-day holiday program, kids:

• play drama games
• learn to improvise
• develop their voices
• work on scripts
• perform for family and friends on the last day.

Tutors are themselves actors and bring a joyous approach to the work. All children will work towards a speaking role in the short play they perform at the end of the program.
No experience is necessary to join 'Drama Attack!'
We cater for shy kids as well as boisterous ones - in fact, acting helps both. Acting is a great way to channel energy into a creative outcome, as well as build self-confidence. In our contemporary world creative thinking and communication skills are highly prized - and drama teaches both. Help your child get ahead by acquiring these skills now. Plus - they'll have fun and won't realise they're learning skills for life!

Lights, Camera, Action!

​In Lights, Camera, Action! you call the shots!  Working alongside an industry insight-rich team, film buffs aged 8 to 17 are eloquently exposed to key insider tips and tricks.  If you are new to acting, don’t worry, we will teach you some of the ‘must know’ fundamentals of becoming an actor, including:

• Script interpretation and analysis.
• Performance Instrument Introduction – Voice and Body (Expression, Articulation, Verbal Dynamics, Projection, Spatial Awareness and Blocking)
• Acting Techniques including ASPA-FTV’s unique techniques and processes for approaching dramatic text. 
  
  

During the week, you will have the opportunity to act in a short film - you'll work on the script, your character and your lines, to produce a great scene like the  ones you see on this page.
 
The uber-talented Cinematographer/Editor Dale Norton, and our ASPAFTV Production Assistants will have all their equipment ready and set to go for the whole week so you will have ample time to get in front of the camera and act! Another benefit of Lights, Camera, Action! is that we will edit your footage on the go!  That’s right!  Dale will be working around the clock to get your scenes to you online before you leave.
