The CFC Actors Conservatory offers actors a unique transformative professional on-screen experience.
The CFC Actors Conservatory, presented by Shaw Media and supported by the Brian Linehan Charitable Foundation, is Canada’s first professional level training program for on-screen acting talent.
Open to up to 8 actors, the Actors Conservatory will run from July 30, 2012 to February 15, 2013 and requires a full time commitment.
Goals of the CFC Actors Conservatory:
- Nurture actors' professional vision
- Develop actors' creative storytelling ablities
- Facilitate and build cross-disciplinary creative and business relationships
- Expand actors' on-screen body of work
- Strengthen their understanding of the business side of on-screen acting
- Cultivate and promote actors' on-screen talent internationally
Over the last 20 years, the CFC has trained and launched some of Canada’s most exciting and prolific storytellers while fostering strong relationships and providing many showcase opportunities for our acting community.
As we look to strengthen our relationship with on-screen talent, we recognize the need within our industry for more in depth, professional on-screen training, training that would adopt the same all encompassing approach to nurturing talent that is the hallmark of the CFC’s programs.
The Actors Conservatory builds on the continuum of great theatre actor training that already exists nationally; such as the National Theatre School, Soulpepper, Studio 58 and the Professional Actors’ Lab, and focuses on furthering the professional actor’s intimate understanding and confidence in working within the film and TV world.
Over the course of six months, the Actors Conservatory engages actors in the on-screen storytelling and film/TV making process, increases their opportunities to forge relationships both on and off screen, and provides them with an exciting and intimate forum in which to strengthen their craft, work with some of the world’s leading practitioners and significantly workshop their craft on screen.
