WHAT:
Continuing in its mission of promoting and advancing the interests of the Texas film industry, the Texas Motion Picture Alliance (TXMPA) has once again joined forces with actor, comedian, and Latin pop star Jade Esteban Estrada - a Texas native - to present a follow-up workshop for actors, "The Reel Deal with Jade Esteban Estrada: Part 2".
WHEN:
Sunday, November 2 from 1PM - 5PM
WHERE:
PrimaDonna Productions
8603 Crownhill Blvd. (near the Magic Time Machine)
San Antonio, TX 78209
DETAILS:
"The Reel Deal with Jade Esteban Estrada: Part 2" is part of a series of acting workshops conducted by industry professionals from across the state to benefit TXMPA. In this particular workshop, students will focus on learning about the business side of show business, from getting an agent to auditioning online. The workshop will be led by Jade Esteban Estrada, a veteran of stage and screen who calls San Antonio home.
As a singer, music from Jade's CD, "Angel" has appeared on the award-winning series "The Shield", and as a screen actor, his credits include recent appearances in the Emmy award-winning series "30 Rock" and "Friday Night Lights". According to Nikki Young, South Central Texas Regional Representative for TXMPA, "As a working actor, Jade understands that you can't have the show without the business, and that actors need to develop that facet of their careers in addition to the acting side. Moreover, he understands the importance of TXMPA - which is all about the business - and why it is important that actors stay on top of their game so when the big projects come in town, they will be ready!" Estrada adds, "In Part 1, we talked about the craft of acting. But there's more to acting than the craft. There's a whole other set of skills that actors need to know to market themselves to casting directors and producers. I'm proud to be working with TXMPA to share these essential tools, which will ultimately show that Texas has got some "reel" talent (which of course we already knew)!"
In Estrada's previous workshop, "The Reel Deal with Jade Esteban Estrada: Part 1", students worked on-camera, learning not only the basic craft and techniques of acting, but also how to develop a character through physical movement, as well as the technical demands of on-camera acting. Students praised the workshop, with actress Nataly Pena calling it "a must for actors. Jade's a fabulous teacher!"
PRICES:
This fun and informative workshop for ages 12 and over costs only $80 for TXMPA members and $100 for non-members and includes the cost of refreshments. *A portion of the enrollment proceeds will benefit TXMPA.*
