UMW Fine Arts Departments Hosts Summer Theatre Workshops and Film Acting Intensive

Summer Film Acting Intensive: August 1–8, 2025
Unlock the secrets of film acting in this immersive eight-day intensive at the University of Montana Western. Led by Scott Trost and Stephen Alan Seder, this series of experiential workshops takes you deep into the heart of the Meisner Technique while focusing on the art of filmmaking.
Participants will learn how to prepare for a film shoot and how to adjust to focal lengths, camera angles, and movement. The intensive culminates in rigorous scene work that is captured on film and analyzed in a critical response session where students discover how editing and stylistic choices can elevate their performance. Don’t miss this chance to sharpen your skills and bring your on-screen presence to life.
