Acting for Screen Diploma: Online interactive delivery

Our adapted YAFTA Acting for Screen Diploma course is now delivered through as an online acting course through online interactive delivery for those who are successfully awarded a place on the course. More industry auditions are being conducted online via Zoom, with actors required to turn up on set prepared to shoot. As such, our online interactive Acting for Screen Diploma course will be delivered with these industry changes as an integral part of the training.
The online diploma is suitable for those who are new to the genre of screen acting. Historically YAFTA has welcomed students who hold BA (Hons) degrees in theatre or stage performance that wish to hone their screen acting technique, as well as students who are complete beginners, and every experience level in-between.

The course is designed for those who wish to undertake intensive training to equip them with the necessary skills and experience to progress from beginner to professional screen actor within in 12 months.
