Train: Education Opportunities

Learn. Practice. Perform.

Acting is a craft you build by doing. Our classes are designed to give actors in Western Colorado a place to train, experiment, and grow on camera and on stage.

Whether you're brand new or already auditioning, GJ Casting classes focus on practical skills actors actually use in film, commercials, and theatre.

Expect a relaxed environment, lots of laughs, and plenty of opportunities to get on your feet.

Come play, take risks, and build your acting muscles.

    Film acting is its own language. The camera sees everything, so actors need to learn how to work with subtlety, timing, and emotional truth.

    In this class you'll work with real film-style scenes and learn the tools actors use on set.

    What you'll practice:

    • Breaking down scripts quickly
    • Working with a scene partner
    • Adjusting performances for the camera
    • Finding natural reactions and emotional truth
    • Hitting marks and working within a frame

    Students regularly perform scenes on camera so they can see how their work translates on screen.

    If you're interested in film, commercials, or TV work, this is the perfect place to start.

Connect:

● Agents

We are working to build relationships with Talent agents that can help you get work outside of the western slope.

● Directors

GJ Casting works with many local producers and directors and helps cast their projects. This is a network heavy market so please come to mixers, events, and casting calls.

● The Acting Community

One of the best parts of GJ Casting classes is the community.

Actors support each other, share ideas, and celebrate each other's growth. Many students meet collaborators, scene partners, and even future film projects through these classes.

You don’t have to be perfect.
