You will learn skills that help you to create emotional vibrancy, identify transitional moments, and maintain your character's scene objective in a chaotic set environment, which will be vital for your career success. You will also learn technical knowledge of on-camera acting, blocking, continuity, lighting and how to handle yourself on a set. Work outside of class is expected.

About The Chubbuck Technique:
Developed by world renown Acting Coach, Ivana Chubbuck, these 12 acting tools create a solid foundation that will keep actors present and inspire a raw, profound, dynamic and powerful performance. The Chubbuck Technique builds upon those techniques used in the past and teaches actors how to use their emotions not as an end result, but as a way to empower a goal. It teaches actors how to win.
A solid body of work exemplifies the effectiveness of The Chubbuck Technique. Every year, those who use it are well represented at the Academy Awards, Emmys, Golden Globes, Tonys, and many other international awards. For the 2006 Academy Awards, Ivana's students were nominated in every acting category: Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. Maureen Cashin Bolog of Actor's Craft is the only acting coach officially certified to teach The Chubbuck Technique in the Great Lakes area.
Work outside of class includes rehearsing scenes with selected scene partners.
