US Sitcom Study Masterclass with Dougie Baldwin
Four Weeks full of hilarious sitcom training where you will find your ‘funny’ and learn important comedic skills for US Sitcoms!
For Four Weeks you will be engrossed in the world of situation comedy where you will workshop scenes from existing US sitcoms, and incorporate different exercises to unlock your own unique funny. There will be a focus on clowning* exercises to unleash your ability to play from your unique sense of pleasure, focus on the singular tool of rhythm, play with games within scenes, develop characters and most of all, try and make your scene partners laugh.
Get ready to bring everything you have learnt for the final shoot - just like on a real set!
In setting up the workshop as a regular week on set of a sitcom, students will become familiar with what is expected of them in that particular context and feel great ownership over their work.
This course is your opportunity to have fun, but also to learn how to take creative comedic risks.

“I’m very grateful for the opportunities TAFTA has opened up for me. I would recommend it to anyone needing a launching pad for their acting career. I received invaluable mentoring, coaching and support that’s lead to an incredible agent, opportunities to audition worldwide and gained lead roles in film and TV.”
