ONGOING SCENE STUDY

The Freeman Studio Approach to Scene Study

The Freeman Studio was founded to provide an enriching and nurturing place for actors. On-going Scene Study develops acting techniques for film, stage or television. We believe that constant practice breeds confidence and expertise, which result in greater success in the audition room, on stage, and on set. Therefore, the Scene Study classes are offered on a constant, year-long schedule.

Once an actor is enrolled they may renew their spot as long as they wish. Cycles are four weeks long, plus an additional hold date. All of our teachers have prescriptive methods to get to the heart of what each actor needs to tackle practical challenges in their work, and to discover new techniques to grow in their craft. 

All In-Person Freeman Studio classes are held at our NYC studio in NoMad.

About the Class:

Scott Freeman has been dedicated to training actors for over three decades. In that time, he has developed a practical, prescriptive method for getting to the heart of what each actor needs. His master classes are for actors with substantial training and practice. Acting exercises at the beginning of class are designed to augment the work being done in class.

Actors are assigned scenes to perform with scene partners. This material is from produced plays, screenplays and television scripts. As the actor progresses in the class, there is increased collaboration in choosing material. Time is always set aside in each class, if necessary, for monologue work and/or upcoming audition material.

While the class work concentrates on process, there is an equal focus on the practical aspects of the career. This influences the material chosen and emphasis of each actor's growth.

Classes are limited to 12 students. Class is on a 4-week cycle and meets once a week, with an additional hold date. Once you are enrolled in the class, you may renew your spot. If you give it up, and wish to rejoin, you will be placed on the wait-list for the next cycle.
