Seattle Acting Classes

Hello! I'm Nils Osmar. This page has information about my acting classes, which are
held in Seattle, Washington. Most of them take place on the Seattle branch of the University
of Washington campus,
about five minutes by freeway from downtown Seattle, and are
sponsored by the ASUW Experimental College.

I work as an artist, writer and filmmaker, and have developed classes over the years in the fields I work in.
I've produced and directed movies and stageplays, and have been teaching for over twenty years.

I currently offer several different classes, designed to help students
develop foundation skills for both stage and screen performance:

Beginning acting
Improv for beginners
Let's make a movie

People sometimes ask what the differences are between the classes:

Beginning acting is an overall introduction to acting. The skills
students learn in it can be applied to either stage or screen acting. It's a good
class to start with if you've never acted before, or if its been a while.

Improv for beginners is a fun class that helps people learn to think on their feet.
You'll learn both long and short form improv, and have a great time.

Let's make a movie is a production class in which we actually film a movie in the class.
The students in the class help write and produce it, and are the cast and crew.
At the end of the quarter we have a cast party where students can invite family
and friends to watch the finished movie, and get a copy on DVD. After that the films are
uploaded online, so students can send links to anyone, anywhere to see them.

Some people take the classes just for fun, to take a break and let off some steam, or
because they'd like to become more comfortable and spontaneous in front of a group
.
This is a legitimate reason; acting classes can help in that regard. Others sign up because
they love the idea of acting, for fun or for a living, or have made a decision to pursue their dreams.

Whatever your objective, you're welcome to sign up. No previous acting experience is required.

If you have questions about which class to take, feel free to contact me.
