LEARN HOW TO
LAND MORE COMMERCIALS

…FROM THE CASTING SESSION DIRECTOR!

Next class
~ SATURDAY OCTOBER 27th ~ 10:00AM

Whether you’re breaking into the business, trying to hone your skills in the audition room, or looking for that little inside knowledge that will help you book jobs immediately, this class is for you.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING…

“My clients have all seen considerable improvements resulting in a number of recalls and bookings immediately after taking
your class. It’s pretty remarkable. I would insist to anyone who is seriously considering a career in this industry to take your
audition workshop. As one client said, “It really helped to demystify the whole process”.

Morgan Flood -Agent
Diamondfield Entertainment


“It would be rare, if ever, that you would find someone with as much varied industry experience and successful track record as
Brett Heard.”

Michael Stevenson – Casting Director C.D.C

“Your workshop was really helpful! I booked the second audition I went to since! I'm forcibly recommending it to everyone I
meet who is new to the audition circuit or is banging their head against the wall.”

Mike Sheer -Actor

“I loved this! I would like to make your teachings an every month endeavor for my clients because I want as many people to
subscribe to this way of thinking about their careers as possible.”

Perrin Forward -Commercial Agent
The Talent House


“The lessons were invaluable! I’ve been auditioning for almost 20 years and this was the first time someone told me what was
actually going on in the room. I’ve been auditioning blindly all this time. I now have the tools to be a successful ‘auditioner’.
Thank you!”

Steve Levine -Actor

Class will include:
~ How to make a good first impression. ~ Do’s and don’ts of the audition process.
~ Understanding what they are looking for.
~ How to improve your chances of booking the job. ~ Understanding the process.

Brett has been acting for over 20 years and has appeared in over 100 commercials. That, combined with his directing
experience with Fade To Black, Gloria Mann, Brian Levy, Jan Stephoff, Powerhouse and others, and an early
career with BBDO Advertising, has provided him with a wealth of knowledge he can now pass on to you.

Ahhh! a fountain course

LS3 is finally teaching the much waded for water fountain course. Luc is anxious to get this course on the way. Far too many requests made for it to go ignored. Luc is treading on new grounds as he uses technology to make his sculpture speak through moving sound. In his 2005 ‘Still Motion’ exhibit his sculptures were moving mutes, so why not give clay the tools to speak. Now he is provoking us to listen to the sound of clay –it now has a voice, it has song, it speaks. At LS3 we are constantly evolving so like Plato says everything evolves therefore nothing is true. Water carries with it many messages of healing, modification, aural cleansing –it silences the spirit by putting negativity to rest. Restore yourself to health with this NEW Water Fountain Course. A baptismal will be but one of its rewards.

 

Coming up mid-October…

So stay tuned!

FSL: French as a second language

Lee brings together a group of very willing Anglophones who have the deepest desires to parole en Français. So if you’ve been yearning for that same type of tongue twisting evening come and join in every Wednesday between 6-8pm. Now only in its 8^th week and yet Lee has already had many nee francophone speakers join in on the sessions. Alors pour les gens qui font parti de ce petit groupe je vous souhaite bon courage dans votre apprentissage.

On the 8^h and 9^th of September it was all about bonding with the parent’s parents. If you too would like to take this bonding to another level take some tips from a couple of LS3 members who had never needed to be prompted by the Ancient Roman’s Julian or by Pope Gregory XIII to get together and sculpt.

		Art Courses by Susanne  Tevlin Hello Art Lovers, There are still a few spots left in both these May courses. I'll be in Paris speaking at Parsons-Paris the last week of April so if you're interested in either of these let me know soon, before I leave for Pariii, actually, so you have just over 2 weeks to decide and confirm your decision with a cheque. Don't forget to check out my website -  www.suzannetevlin.com ROMANTICISM Delve into the darkness of what truly is Romanticism in all its' extremes of passion, exoticism, colour and poetry. The Art of Romanticism has little to do with our modern ideas of romance, and even less to do with hearts and flowers. Rather, Romanticism is the naked soul of the Artist exposed in all its' richness and disturbing splendor, for us to see. Romanticism is the confessional of the seeker, with emotions beyond his ability to control. Witness Gericault as he visits charnel houses and rides himself to death and empathise  with Delacroix as he seeks to overcome his shadowy paternity  through Art. 1)THE RISE OF ROMANTICISM: INGRES, DAVID & GROSS 2)THE NIGHTMARE SCENARIO: FUSELI & BLAKE 3)THE DEAF MAN'S HOUSE: GOYA 4)BLOODLESS VIOLENCE: GERICAULT & DELACROIX 5)LANDSCAPE & ROMANTICISM: JOHN CONSTABLE 6)TURNER, GOETHE & THE POETS INSTRUCTOR: Suzanne Tevlin, AOCA LEARNER OUTCOMES: Students will not only discover new ways af looking at art from these artist lead talks, but will also develop a new empathy for the "creative" at work from listening to a practicing artist mull over the difficulties and decisions involved in the act of creation and the art of living as an artist. ROMANTICISM will be held at my studio wednesday evenings, from 7pm 'till 9pm, May 3rd to June 7. The cost will be $295 for the 12 hour course with a LLL of $280. This course will be limited to six participants. ART & PRACTICE This exciting new course creates a true appreciation of the Artist's world by combining the best of Art History with actual practice in the artist's studio.  Evenings of lectures on the History of Art will alternate with evenings of art making. One of the best ways to understand Art is to try it yourself.....  this develops both your analytical and intuitive sides and will lead you to a fundamental realisation of what Art is all about. 1) Impressionism: Renoir & Monet 2) Impressionism studio: chalk pastel on paper 3) Post Impressionism: Gauguin & Van Gogh 4) Colour field painting studio: acrylic on paper 5) Cubism: Picasso & Braque 6) Cubism studio: collage & ink on paper INSTRUCTOR: Suzanne Tevlin, AOCA LEARNER OUTCOMES: Students will not only discover new ways af looking at art from these artist lead talks, but will also develop a new empathy for the "creative" at work when they try doing it themselves. ART & PRACTICE will be held at my studio thursdays, from 7pm 'till 9pm, May 4th to June 8th. The cost will be $295 for the 12 hour course with a LLL of $280. This course will be limited to six participants. The art supplies used during the three studio evenings will be included in the course fee.                           ROMANTICISM Delve into the darkness of what truly is Romanticism in all its' extremes of passion, exoticism, colour and poetry.

This course will be limited to six participants. The art supplies used during the studio evenings will be included in the course fee.   8 GROUND BREAKING ARTISTS Meet 8 of the most interesting "ground breaking" Artists of the western world.  Hear about the loves, hates, foibles and indiscretions of these gifted painters when Suzanne  sets the cultural and historical stage for you by discussing not only the artistic reality of the times, but also, when possible, the political, musical and literary situations as well.  Discover right brain thinking at it's best as you learn how an Artist thinks, sees and constructs, by studying his work with another Artist as your guide.  The 8 greats include Caravaggio, Rubens, van Dyck, Velazquez, Ingres, Goya, Gericault and Delacroix. Mondays, Starts January 30, 7pm 'till 9pm Costs $395.00 for series of 8 lectures Upcoming Series Subjects Include: Renaissance Painted Rooms & Polyptyches, Romanticism and "Gotta Get a Message to You",Communication Within The Art Work.   BEYOND FRENCH IMPRESSIONISM The Impressionists opened the floodgates of artistic innovation and experimentation and things haven't been the same since. This course will assume a familiarity with Manet, Monet, Degas and Renoir, though they will be reviewed briefly, and will commence with a discussion of the "other" Impressionists, such as Sisley and Pizzarro. We will then take an indepth look at the Post-Impressionists, the Fauves, the Symbolists, and the Expressionists, as well as other major artistic movements of the 19th century, ending just before Picasso. Costs $395/8 weeks January 25 to March 15 Wednesdays, 7pm 'till 9pm   THE ART SOIRÉE An evening of Art and Dialogue for those who have always wanted to have their say!  Commencing with an illustrated talk about a group of thematically similar but stylistically diverse paintings, the discussion will be opened up to the members of the soirée at frequent intervals for their comments.

Costs $350/6 week session.  Classes are ongoing so please E-mail requests for the current schedule. FROM DRAWING TO PAINTING This innovative programme has proven itself over the years.  It offers a gentle re-introduction to the creative side of life in an intimate and supportive environment.  An inspirational lecture introduces both the 4 weeks of drawing basics as well as the 6 weeks of painting basics.  Students are invited to choose between watercolour, acrylic or waterbased oils.  The remarkably comfortable atmosphere in the studio has students coming back year after year as develop their skills.  Sketching outings and visits to the AGO are often possible.
