Level 1 is the foundation course which aims to bring out the fun of acting, make participants to shed their inhibitions, teach them stagecraft, pantomime, and character building. It is also for people without any background in acting. The objective is to make them as natural as possible.

The course is unique because it focuses on bringing out the originality, the creativity, and the attention to detail in the actor, by letting the actor create their very own concepts and execute these, in the form of numerous short plays, during the course of the training.Feedback of the alumni of MISF!T are available here: http://misfit.co.in/?cat=15

The course includes:

1. Breaking inhibitions: getting people comfortable to act, in front of an audience.
2. Characterization.
3. Voice: Understanding the components, and projection of voice.
4. Observation.
5. Listening skills.
6. Pantomime.
7. Improvisation.
8. Scene creation and Character creation.
9. Script creation.
10. Fine tuning of theatre craft.

This course is also designed in such a way, that it will help the participant, if he or she decides to, take acting as a profession.

The course gets constantly upgraded because the ideologies are constantly evolving.

Please note punctuality and attendance are very essential.

The in-house performances have been created as a platform to showcase the MISF!T students. This will depend on the discipline and dedication of the students.

There are fixed days for registration – 25th August 2012 and 1st September 2012. There will be a brief interview before the registration. Knowledge of theatre is not necessary for the interview, it is purely for us, to get an understanding of your potentials and your reasons for joining the course.

Please note that if the seats are filled in the first round of registration (25th of August), there will not be another round. In the previous batch, we were unable to accommodate a lot of people because they called up too late.
