Mission Statement
Our Mission at Shiek Studio is to get the actor to focus on the “NOW” – to understand, feel, express, and react as the character honestly in the moment. Actors will develop a technique that builds the confidence, and freedom that empowers them to commit and transform into the who and what they need to be. We at Shiek Studio armor the actors by preparing them thoroughly, so they can walk out of the classroom and onto a movie set, or stage, with the specific goal of becoming the Working Actor.
Shiek teaches Producing, Directing. Directing actors at the renowned New York Film Academy as part of their master’s program. As a director, producer & co-creator of films, TV pilots and web series that are currently being shopped to networks & with over 30 yrs of experience, Shiek Studios students are well prepared to go after their dreams of a successful career.
