Aeolian offers the opportunity, to those who cannot or do not want to pursue higher education, to pursue free training curricula which has been developing and perfecting year after year since its foundation. These itineraries also have a potential four-year journey; offer a own final diploma of the center and they also have a strong vocation to connect the student (actor and / or singer) with the student professional world, taking into account their starting point, and promoting an organic and creative development of their innate conditions.
On the other hand, they are more condensed in terms of schedules than the curricula of the higher degree. And they can be taken following the recommended routes of subjects by specialties, or freely by choosing your own academic path (always with the advice of the center).
If the student satisfactorily passes the entire training plan, he / she will receive a degree from the center at the end of the training. If you only complete some of the subjects freely, you will be provided with a certificate with the total number of hours completed.
Training blocks for acting, film, singing and music and theater
INTERPRETATION 1: We start the course with a group cohesion work and active listening training, based on different dynamics that will encourage the value of commitment, the need to be vulnerable, confidence in others, emotional ductility and the importance of betting. There is also a process to accompany the creative act: the performance, understood as a free and individual theatrical action, which will be performed in front of an audience at the end of the semester. From the second semester onwards, we will do more work focused on the process of creating the character and the work of scenes and monologues based on texts by contemporary playwrights. This allows us to delve deeper into the goal and the conflict, into the creation of a concrete imaginary within fiction, into the concepts of space and time, into play and the search for the meaning of the text, into the different languages and codes. theatrical and in staging. A job that requires demand, responsibility and commitment to the other and that gives meaning to all the learning of the course.
