Week 1: Audition Technique
We’ll focus on the audition process: cold reads, prepared sides assigned in advance, and working through detailed notes. The goal: being truly ready when opportunities start coming your way.
Week 2: On-Set Experience
This week shifts to the on-set process. You’ll work with a full episode, giving you time to build a character and track their arc before stepping into the studio. We’ll dive into script analysis, shoot a scene, and explore both sides of the camera because there’s always work to do, whether you’re on screen or supporting behind it.

As an actor living in NJ, it's been great to find a location in NJ that challenges us every week to in specific ways to prepare us for film and television, while creating a nurturing and supportive environment. No 2 classes are ever the same, and Stacey tunes in to our to individuality to serve our specific needs. Matt and special guests are a welcomed surprise that further add great value to our learning."

"As a professional actress I have studied in many places on both the east and west coasts. I would like to share that Stacey’s professionalism, patience, kindness, warmth, laser focus AND ability to push you past your own limits to bring out the best version you can bring to a character all within a safe and judgement free space - in my experience and opinion is extremely rare. I absolutely LOVE her style of teaching and look forward to the next round of classes."
