Acting Intensive for Stage, Screen and Digital Media

Step into the spotlight with a focused three-day intensive for actors ready to elevate skills on stage, screen and digital media.

Through expert-led workshops and a professionally filmed screen-test, taught across our two campuses in Berlin, participants will sharpen their performance techniques and walk away with valuable footage and feedback.

This workshop also offers filmmakers and directors a unique, hands-on insight into the actor’s craft—deepening their understanding of performance, enhancing communication on set, and fostering creative collaboration. It’s a dynamic space to sharpen directing instincts, experiment with storytelling, and connect with emerging talent in a shared artistic process.
