ACT grew
out of an experimental project that began in the summer of 2001.
This project was focused on how to solve the communication gap between
actors and directors while on set. As the project grew it became apparent
that there is a vast communication and understanding breakdown between
the general actor populous and the industry they desire to work in.
The problem has been that too many teaching institutions have failed to
adequately and precisely prepare the actor with the skills necessary to
satisfy the needs of Film and Television Production. The growth of "reality
casting" in the industry is one symptom. Accordingly, casting requires
sifting
through 150 auditions to find one barely qualified actor per job. In any
other
industry, a job might be expected to be filled out of twenty applicants.
Several generations of wrongly trained actors complicate and increase
the
costs of hiring. Woefully unqualified actors radically drive up production
expenses. This reduces the pool of available capital that could otherwise
fund projects employing actors, crew, and ancillary trades that affect
our
industry and the economy.
The solution is to correctly train actors to satisfy the needs of production
by teaching actors to understand and speak the language of the typical
film and television set. Actors are paid enormous amounts of money to
simply follow directions and to, above all else, at all times, and under
all
circumstances, maintain a professional disposition toward the industry
that employs them. The actor really only has one job, and that is to get
hired in the most efficient of ways and to fulfill the needs of the production.
Once hired, the actor is told where to show up, when to show up, what
to
wear, where to stand, when to move, what to say, and when to say it, all
while enjoying a social environment with food and great people.
Through three years of intense research and development, Actors Certified
Training has perfected this course that brings the actor to an exceptional
level
of preparedness for film and television production. This preparedness
includes
the critical, nuanced language between director and actor. That's just
a little
bit about us. |
