Five Benefits that Screenteens Acting Classes Offer – Screenwise Tips

The Film & Television industry is an amazing industry to work in and be involved with. However, it comes with a number of uncertainties and open questions that need to be considered. This blog post aims to provide some clarity and present key benefits that Screenwise offers parents when registering their child for acting classes.

Screenwise offers Teen Acting Classes that are designed for young adults (12-16 years old) who are wishing to gain a foothold in the industry or simply wanting to explore acting for the first time. Students will learn how to break down a scene, build a character, master audition and screen tests through to script reading, improvisation, presenting and devising scenes – all in a supportive and fun learning environment that is shared with like-minded people.

She is also appearing in the supernatural TV series NOS4A2 on popular American TV channel AMC. Screenteens Graduates have also moved on to star in Australia’s leading Film & Television series such as Puberty Blues, Home and Away, All Saints and Blue Water High.

Parents, guardians and carers can claim a $100 voucher per year that goes towards the cost of any Screenteens Class (Term Classes or Holiday Workshops). The NSW Government is helping your cost of living with more than 40 rebates and savings including “Creative Kids”, which is all about making it easier for school-aged kids (4.5 to 18 years old) to get involved in creative and cultural activities.

3. Screenwise can assist your child in scoring a film & television audition during their studies
If your child is currently attending acting classes and is not yet represented by an agent, Screenwise will keep their headshots on file and may submit it to casting consultants for audition consideration whenever there is a suitable Film or Television series being cast. Many of our students are now represented by some of Sydney’s top acting agencies thanks to referrals by Screenwise.
