About Program
The Prague Film School Acting for Film program offers an intensive, conservatory style curriculum. The course helps actors recalibrate their performances for the screen and provides students the skills to embark on a successful career in film and television. Students rigorously train in on-camera acting, voice, movement, acting theory and the business of acting. The program makes use of a variety of techniques ranging from Meisner‘s behavior-based method, to technically oriented exercises designed to hone performances for camera.
Students are placed in front of the camera from day one of the course and receive rigorous training in class and on set. Monologue and scene-work daily develop students' ability to hone their performances for the camera – both habituating students to the specifics related to acting for various shot sizes and blocking arrangements but also developing their skills to be able to deliver believable and compelling performances.

Program Highlights
- Focus on film acting - while acting courses can be found virtually everywhere, very few offer a live-and-breathe total immersion experience aimed at re-calibrating one‘s performance for the screen.
- Experience on set - more than 400 films are shot per year and actors participate on as many as 30 productions. They then learn the specific skills that make up the film acting craft but also leave the program with substantial material for a show reel
- Access to local casting directors, agents and small to big budget film productions. - Not only is Prague a beautiful historic location with an active student life, but hundreds of Hollywood, Netflix and HBO productions have been shot in the city.
- International - students in the course come from all over the world. This both enriches the course with a diverse palette of acting traditions and also provides students an invaluable network of international contacts to access upon graduating.
