10/29 UPDATE: Rekindle School is an independent educational program, established in 2002. We offer fun, affordable classes in a variety of topics.
Our IN-PERSON classes meet on the University of Washington campus in Seattle. They’re on a break due to the pandemic. We are hoping to resume on-campus classes in January 2021.
In the meantime, check out our ONLINE CLASSES below –– or CLICK HERE. Some NEW classes have been added recently.
In this helpful introductory class, you’ll learn about the real world of voice acting, including how to have the best odds of making it in the business.
People often email to ask if we have any in-person classes during the shutdown. Most of our classes during this period are online, but “LET’S MAKE A MOVIE” is in-person. We do it by filming in very small groups (2-3 actors at most) with social distancing, asking the students to wear masks when not filming, and filming outdoors. So if you’ve been waiting for an in-person class, check it out.
Meredith Binder’s “Acting in Commercials” and “Self-Taping for Actors” classes will be back soon! Watch for an announcement.
The dates for Peter Greyy’s “Comedy Writing Workshop” will be listed soon!
We’ll also be bringing back several painting and collage classes soon. We’ve found they work great as online courses.
Rekindle’s ONLINE CLASSES and WEBINARS can be taken from anywhere in the world. They all include “real time” contact with a live instructor. If the course title is a live link you can sign up at any time.
Note: “LET’S MAKE A MOVIE” is both an online and in-person class. (Group meetings are online; meetings with just one or two actors for filming are in person with masks and social distancing)
We send out updates once or twice a month with information about new classes and class dates. You can unsubscribe at any time just by clicking on the “unsubscribe” button in the emails. We never, ever, ever sell people’s email addresses.
Rekindle School was established in 2002. We offer fun, affordable classes in drawing, painting, acting, filmmaking and other subjects. Most of our classes meet on the University of Washington campus in Seattle. Others meet in community centers.
