LOS ANGELES—James Bartholet will be conducting another of his popular acting workshops this Sunday. Geared toward adult performers who want to sharpen their acting chops, this new one-day workshop will cover the basics of acting and improvisation, with on-camera tapings of acting scenes.
The workshops will be in West Hollywood. The price will be $30 per student. The classes are four to five hours long, and interested students should sign up now. The workshop will start promptly at 1 p.m.
“We’ve had good responses from our previous workshops, and a lot of performers have been asking when I’m going to do another, so I decided to do another class this month. With so many parodies and features being shot, we can’t rely on just being able to perform on screen, we’ve got to be able to act as well,” said Bartholet.
“The workshop will go over scene study, character development, improvisation skills, and we will tape a scene that the students pick from a mainstream film, television, or stage production so they can have tape of themselves doing a mainstream scene,” added Bartholet.
Bartholet has many years experience in acting and directing in the mainstream industry, and acts in many adult features. He was an AVN 2009 Best Performance Non Sex Nominee for Hustler’s This Ain’t Happy Days XXX. Bartholet has a degree from Los Angeles Valley College, and has received several acting awards and nominations from his many years on stage.
Bartholet trained with ACT in San Francisco and with many different acting coaches in Los Angeles. He has performed in various stage productions from coast to coast, as well as television and films, and performed sketch comedy at the Comedy Store and the Ice House.
