Class Description & Format
Tuesdays May 12th, 19th
6:30pm-9:00pm EST
Week 1
For your first week, you'll be in class with just Misha as she gets to know your work and prepares you for class with Maribeth. You'll present scenes that you choose live with a reader and receive feedback from Misha, and then get a recording of your work when you're done. You'll also get a chance to ask Misha questions in a live Q&A. Classes will take place on Zoom.
One of Misha's unique gifts as a teacher is her career strategy sessions. She'll share with you some critical strategies to getting feature film auditions, even without an agent or manager. Your week with Misha is a one-of-a-kind blend of career coaching and top-tier craft.

Week 2
For Week 2, you'll be assigned scenes, and Misha will facilitate the class while you work with Maribeth directly. Scenes are typically pulled from top independent and blockbuster films, and Maribeth will watch your work and provide feedback. The in-person format also allows for community building with your other classmates, one of the most joyful parts of the process.
Each class will have a Q&A with Maribeth and Misha, and you'll receive a recording of your work. After class, you should feel ready to audition like crazy this year!
