Hello, I am Peter Valentino. I am a professional acting instructor with my own studio in Hollywood, California. Ive been teaching acting for over 12 years. Ive owned two theaters and have taught students from all over the world. This is a course for people who want to learn acting as a possible profession or to make themselves more successful in their life. Acting skills are also valuable in any sales or business situation, or in public speaking. This course contains a lot of information gained from my years as an acting teacher in Hollywood, New York City, and internationally. The course has many exercises that you can start to do on a daily basis. These exercises will strengthen you as an actor and as a person. Acting is an art. As a teacher, I am most influenced by the books of Stanislavski, the great Russian master, and by Stella Adler, one of the best of the New York teachers. Whatever level youre on now, this course will help you excel in the skills of acting. The course contains five videos, all over 30 minutes.
