Screenwise - Australia's Leading Film & Television School For Actors

Despite the agony in this rotten profession, there is much ecstasy. And the people you work with are the cream of humanity. Who else would strive to work in such a service industry, where most of the time, they are to undergo private deprivation and public humiliation in order to manufacture dreams for total strangers in need of them - Hayes Gordon

So you want to be an actor? SCREENWISE, Australia’s Leading Film and TV School for Actors, has a range of tailored classes and courses that are suitable for anyone wishing to enter the industry or to further their career.

Employing only top local and international working professionals, SCREENWISE can help you get the break you have been looking for!

The 'Roberts Method' mixes a strong academic element with a hard-nosed professionalism, aimed at helping actors get the one thing that's the most elusive in their line of work...a job.

BEWARE!

There are many Charlatans out there, so called 'professionals', professing to have what it takes to get you a job - offering actors quick fixes for showreels and quick roads to success...but please be warned! There are NO quick fixes. And just because they've made a feature film doesn't make them an expert. Experience makes them an expert.
Anyone who offers you advice for a price...or a chance to be seen by Casting Consultants and Directors when you're not ready...or offer you a showreel without taking into consideration what you have to lose...then they are exploiting you and your situation. Casting Consultants and Directors who are being paid for their expertise can enlighten you on how THEY work and what THEY want, but THEY can't solve your problems or advise you on how to fix things, or improve your performance. So basically, they can't teach you to act.
Just remember, exposure doesn't give you better opportunities...better training does.
