Actors 18yrs +
Understanding our actors' creative process from the very beginning is a vital first step in truly getting to know them as artists. For this reason, each actor new to LBF aged 18yrs & over is invited to participate in a private acting session, giving us valuable insight into their current skill level & unique strengths.
Youth Actors
LBF Youth Actors take part in at least one term of training within the LBF Acting for Screen Programme. Screen training is not just helpful - it's integral. It provides the technical know-how, emotional tools, and set-ready discipline needed to thrive in the film and TV industry.
The advantages are significant and include:
- Understanding the Camera - performance subtlety, camera awareness & framing
- Building Technical Skills - continuity, blocking, voice control
- Professionalism on Set - set etiquette, terminology, audition prep
- Emotional Intelligence & Character Work - authenticity, safe emotional access on cue, improvisation to build spontaneity & adaptability
