New to Studio 24? You've landed on the right page! The TV & Film Course is where all adult actors begin their journey with Studio 24.
This course is specifically designed for those ready to bridge the gap between "talented dreamer" and "working professional" by blending technical on-camera training with a deep dive into the business of show business. Each week, you’ll master the nuances of drama and comedy through scene work on a multi-camera sound stage, while simultaneously demystifying the industry’s gatekeepers—from agents and managers to casting directors. By focusing on actor branding, marketing strategies, and the realities of the audition process, the program ensures you walk away with more than just improved skills; you'll have a clear, actionable blueprint for launching your career and turning your professional TV and film aspirations into a reality.
Course includes a 30 minute career consultation with owner Cody Dorkin where you will walk away with a game plan for your acting career. ($85 Value)

"I've said it before and I'll say it again, thanks Cody for believing in me from the start. Your confidence in me gave me the courage to keep going instead of giving up when things weren't looking too hot. Studio 24 is still my favorite for a place to learn to act and feel creative."
