We are a fully online Film & TV focused acting studio! In our classes and workshops, actors are not huddled in front of their computers reading scripts off the screen, like many classes that have temporarily adapted to an online format. Here at The O.A., scenes are framed, blocked, and shot cinematically. Actors are empowered to use their own spaces creatively and effectively for on-screen performance.

A graduate of Brown University with a B.A. in Theatre, Sami has been training at The O.A. extensively, currently at the Story Mastery level. She has worked on numerous independent films as she develops her career in the Film & TV industry.

Among many other concepts, you'll learn foundational acting skills, The O.A.'s unique screen acting technique, audition/self-taping technique, scene study, and skills that translate directly to film sets. You'll work on complexity in your acting to be able to play in any genre, from Marvel movies to shows like Euphoria. You'll explore differences in tone and style between projects from Disney Channel to The CW Network!

Our acting training and coaching is affordable and accessible, with classes at a fraction of the cost of other studios. A session of our workshop costs just $40 (USD)!
