About

Zak Barnett Studios Acting Programs include acting classes, ongoing classes, intensives, community events, industry events, and the option for a consultation with Zak. The studio describes its approach as “Acting for the Whole Self,” with all classes intersecting Industry Need, Artistic Craft, and Personal Development. Ongoing classes and intensives are supplemented by community and industry events, and class placement is based on a conversation with an advisor and a review of a recent self-tape.

• Ages: 9–18 years old
• Price: $50 commitment deposit is required to reserve a consultation; if a student enrolls, that deposit will go toward program tuition; if Zak Barnett Studios is not the right fit, it will be refunded on the call; no-shows forfeit the deposit.
