Units studied in the Certificate IV in Acting for Stage and Screen

THE ACTOR'S INSTRUMENT - Voice & BODY
The 'actor's instrument' refers to the voice and body: it's what the actor uses to communicate. If you want longevity as a performer, your instrument needs to be in tune. In Movement you'll explore your physicality through a blend of fitness, movement technique, and non-verbal communication skills. In Voice you'll work on developing vocal resonance, projection and articulation, adapting them to your performance space (whether that's stage or screen). Units you'll study: SASPHY401 Expand physical vocabulary SASVOC401 Increase vocal capacity ACTING TECHNIQUE
By studying units in acting technique, you will develop a process for preparing for a role. Learn how to mine a text for clues to create a character, work with listening-response techniques, and then set about applying those techniques in a stage or screen context. Ever seen a wooden actor on stage or screen? That's not what you want to be. Our aim is to move you towards memorable, believable performances through special methods taught by our trainers, who are all professional actors. Units you'll study: CUAACT401 Use a range of acting techniques in performance SASCHA401 Use text to create character CUAPRF410 Develop on-camera performance skills SASSTA401 Apply stage performance technique INDUSTRY SKILLS
The professional actor needs more than technique alone: you need industry information. How do you find a job? Win a role? Manage yourself in a professional setting? Know who to talk to if you have a problem while on set? These questions and more are answered in your industry skills units. You'll learn how to engage in professional dialogue, audition for a role, practise industry etiquette, and monitor workplace health and safety issues. These skills prepare you for your first steps into the industry. Units you'll study: CUAPRF304 Develop audition techniques SASCON401 Acquire and integrate knowledge of performance contexts SASPRA401 Apply principles of professional practice |
