Our signature full-time Acting for Film & TV Career Training is an 8-month acting program that is fully designated by the provincial and federal governments, and StudentAid BC.

Graduate equipped with a diploma, professional CV, industry standard headshots, audition demo reel, and the skills and confidence to launch your professional acting career in film, television, or theatre.

As COVID-19 restrictions are eased and productions open up, we expect our industry will flourish as never before!

The Program

The program’s rigorous learning schedule consists of in-class study and assigned homework set by our professional faculty. This is balanced by a supportive group of students, enthusiastic and committed instructors, and the opportunity to study in the beautiful city of Victoria, B.C. We combine two of the most successful acting techniques used in modern actor training — Movement Psychology and Meisner Approach — to develop performers who excel in front of the camera and in front of a live audience. As a VAD Arts student, you will gain a foundation in naturalistic acting techniques that prepares you for a successful career in film, television, and theatre.

Now booking auditions for our 2020/21 intake which runs September 21, 2020 to May 21, 2021
