HOSTING WORKSHOP

As a director I've shot many "spokesperson" campaigns. It is a specific skill, different from traditional character acting. The ability to look into the lens and connect with people is arguably one of the most difficult thing an actor/personality must do.

If you are considering a career in hosting, or want to seriously brush up on your spokesperson skills (for commercials etc.) then definitely check out this workshop. The quicktime above is a great introduction to the program and instructor (television/news personality Suzanne Sena.) Her reel fricken rocks! When a workshop, class, or seminar is taught by someone who is out there doing it... you always get so much more from the experience.

The workshop itself is offered by Carolyne Barry who writes:

"For many years, I have often been asked by students and agents about offering a HOSTING WORKSHOP. It was a natural extension of the programs I currently offered. But, in order to present one that would provide the best training available for this expanding venue, I had to:
• Offer an ultra qualified, kick-ass teacher
• Create a program that would offer more than anything that was
currently available. One that truly produced results and was not
quick overview of information.
• Only enroll the right number of students to give every person enough
time on camera.
• Offer eight workshop sessions that would give the students enough
practice time to own the training they receive.
• And offer it all at a fair price.

Well, I am ready. I am very excited to announce the addition of television host, news personality and teacher. Suzanne Sena to my staff" - Carolyne Barry
