Actors' Atelier School and Resource for Actors in Los Angeles
ATELIER: ah · tel · ee · ay. A French word meaning a workshop or studio, especially for an artist or designer.
We opened Actors' Atelier because we found something crucially lacking in existing Los Angeles acting schools...
COMMUNITY
A collaborative place where you can find answers to your questions, seasoned, professional teachers who are experts in their field, and encouragement & collaboration among your peers.
No one succeeds without others.
"My teacher was really patient and helpful. I learned so much." - Ruth Blandford student Fall '09
Students are encouraged to rehearse together outside of class (in our space for free), to spend time in our library and resource center (where we have free wi-fi), and to work hard and have fun!
We offer the fundamentals which are essential tools to any actor such as Scene Study and On-camera Techniques, but we are extremely proud of our more uniqe classes such as "Acting for the NON Twenty-something" and our "New to LA?" (always free!) workshop.
