DCM ACTING
& FILM CluB
 

DESCRIPTION​

This year, DCM is combining our Acting & Film Clubs into one! There will be two times offered per week. Participants will have fun developing their acting skills for film, TV, commercials, and theatre with on camera work, acting and improvisation games and exercises! They will also take part in writing, shooting and creating their own films! All skills developed have a lot of pathways to go forward in the Acting & Film industry, honing students' ability to work in teams and increasing their self esteem and confidence!
