CALGARY UPSTART
February 10 to April 6, 2020
(no class on February 17 – Family Day)
Calling all Directors, Actors and Writers.
Upstart is an 8 week development program for emerging actors, directors and writers presented by AMPIA and Jonathan Joffe Pictures and coordinated by Calgary actor Karen Ryan. Contact Karen at calgaryupstart@gmail.com for more information.
We film two scenes every Monday night, from 6:30 to 10:00 pm over 8 weeks. Scenes are professionally edited and a copy is given to participants for their own personal use**. Directors will direct 4 out of 8 nights (but attendance is encouraged for all 8 sessions) and actors will participate in all 8.
Cost – $189.00 (gst included) for members of ACTRA, AMPIA, or WIFTA;
$241.50 (gst included) for non-members
Auditions and interviews will be held on Monday, February 3, 2020 from 6:30 to 9:00 pm. If interested please send your request for an audition/interview to calgaryupstart@gmail.com. Previous participants do not need to audition again.
