AFTRA Detroit Local Conservatory 

The AFTRA Conservatory is back. By all accounts, we are a hit. Either by design, or luck, we followed a logical course of professional development.  

Our opening:

ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION
HEADSHOT WORKSHOP AND DISCOUNT SHOOT
MEET YOUR AGENTS
VOICE OVER 1
VOICE OVER 2
HEALTHY VOICE WORKSHOP

We have shared information and experiences not readily available except through private lessons, or the school of hard knocks.

Future workshops still in the planning include:

RESUME
ADVANCED VOICE OVER CLASSES
ACTING SEMINARS
HOW TO AUDITION
IMPROV
MORE SPECIFIC HEALTHY VOICE CLASSES
CAREER DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

We know that we have missed some great topics, and even more great presenters. We need your help. First, tell your friends about our conservatory classes. In our desire to give our union members special thanks, to date, all the conservatory workshops have been free. To my knowledge, we are the only Local that offers such a deal. How can you really help us? We need your ideas. Remember this is your conservatory. You can contact me at steveweaver47@aol.com  Re: conservatory. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

This very successful year in the conservatory would not have been possible without the selfless support of my dedicated committee, Lili Kaufmann, Tom Force, Doak Breen, and Blossom, as well as the talent and generosity of our presenters: Dave Simmons, Bruce Giffin, Michael Shore, and Betty Lane

Thank you for your continued support.
