The Wayne Dvorak Acting Studio
is located in the heart of Los Angeles -- the hip Los Feliz area to be
exact. The studio's training program accepts beginning,
intermediate, and advanced actors -- by interview / audition only.
What Makes the Wayne
Dvorak Acting Studio Different --
and How That Benefits You
-
You will experience pure
Meisner instruction that is systematic and comprehensive, building
step by step on emotional development, to character work, to
professional-level work, and then to business contacts --
the results make you a bookable
actor with the ability to have a long, successful career.
-
You will have direct access
to the coach, Mr. Wayne Dvorak, from the beginning - you don't have to
wade through class levels to have interaction with him. This can
accelerate your growth as an actor. Mr. Dvorak supports his students
asking him questions to further facilitate acting skills and improve the
expression of the material worked on.
-
You will learn how to use
the Meisner Technique for comedy, especially film comedy. Many
actors don't ever learn these skills, which can
give you an advantage
since many acting jobs are for comedy.
-
You will enjoy a small
class size, which allows for individualized attention. This
gives you the edge by allowing the instructor to know you better and give
you more personalized guidance that can shape your image and craft faster.
-
You will obtain a
professional
grasp of language through traditional authors, including
Shakespeare, Tennessee Williams, and Edward Albee. Your ability to
use language to convey meaning and
emotion is a critical skill that is rarely taught these days.
-
You will find
out what niche you serve in Hollywood as an actor by
learning how to
package the uniqueness of who you really are. You are brought in to
an audition, initially, for the essence you carry in your face -- you will
learn what that is and how to package it for success.
Dedicated to Meisner
instruction and professional actor development, the studio's principle
large work room is set up like a sound stage to give the actor a feeling
of being on TV and film.
The Studio's Commitment to
You
-
You will learn how to find
your center as an actor.
-
You will be shown how to
access your full range of
layered emotions without driving
yourself crazy. For example, you will learn how to act
anger/pain, romantic/sexuality, vengeful/humor -- and many other
complex, layered
emotions.
-
You will be advised on
how to package your image, how to get a great headshot that
showcases your uniqueness, and how to get yourself out into
the business world to book acting jobs.
Your Commitment to the
Craft of Acting
-
You will take the time to be
dedicated and focused on development of your acting craft. This
includes rehearsals every week.
-
You will continually strive to be
a positive, original, and authentic human being.
If you think you can or can't,
you're right.

Through a series of Meisner
improvisational
exercises at Wayne's Studio, the training helped me get rid of my
inhibitions, gain access to my emotions, and bring the spontaneity and
openness involved in those exercises to scripted work.

Under Wayne's wing I have
been able to get an agent, a role on a soap,
three national commercials,
and have learned
how to be
a good actor.
