PROGRAMS
![]() ERIC STONE STUDIO METHOD The Hollywood Actors Studio
System is an organic and innovative approach to teaching the craft of
acting. The strength of the approach is that it is entirely tailored
and focused on training the individual as opposed to delivering a general
"system" to a group. The claim and result of this new method is to succeed
in developing strong, independent and free-spirited
artists in charge of themselves and their craft. ![]() THREE LEVELS OF PARTICIPATION There are three levels of participation and graduation at the Studio. The program is designed as a complete training ground from beginner to full-time professional including young actors. It is an on-going program and you can enter anytime. It takes four to seven years to cover the full length of the program. Most students are encouraged to participate for at least two years to fully profit from the training. Students enter at different levels and there are classes at all levels.The aim of the course is to build total and complete confidence in the actor's ability and technique. There are no rules as to how fast a student can develop. It is entirely left up to him or her, depending on his or her willingness to grow and improve. The program does make it possible to learn according to one's desire and commitment. The classes and workshops are taught in a fun, supportive, professional and committed environment. The students at all levels are encouraged and trained to take acting on as a self-realization and artistic path for the long run. The coaching is strong, direct and from the heart. The classes are no substitute for psychology or therapy sessions, and humiliation techniques are never used to get results from students. Instead, the method of delivery is respectful of the individual, graceful yet relaxed and entertaining. The coach does not make empty promises of success and stardom, but rather aims at building the actor's confidence through acquiring solid skills and a clear understanding and investment in the craft. ![]() STUDIO LEVELS LEVEL 1: Students spend most of the time assimilating the fundamentals of relaxation and acquiring the basic language and distinctions of their craft.
