Class Description

In this "Little Stars" class, Casting Director Chris Gilmore and Director Leo Gilmore lead students and their parents through a fun acting adventure for TV, film, and commercials. Students and parents will be given scripts and also be participating in improvisation techniques as well. Students will learn how to create characters and dive into their imaginations in scenes, while also learning how to focus, stay on subject, and apply reading and memorization skills.

This class will continue throughout the year, with each month offering a different theme: such as comedy improvisation, commercials, drama, character building, and more!

About Chris Gilmore

As a producer in the entertainment industry and as an acting coach of over 30 years, I love bringing new creative minds forward and building the confidence of our kids and teens who are the future of our world and if it is their choice, of the entertainment industry. My passion is to teach our students to spread their creative wings and soar. Having been a child star, and having been taught by the best teachers, I know the joy of creating great characters and using the imagination to the max as an actor. As a mom of a "homeschooler" I know the great value of acting skills, reading, memorization skills, and the social skills and confidence that our acting classes have brought to my students and to my son (who has now co-directed his first feature film.) Plus, the classes are a lot of FUN!
