You can start out with one of our frequent drop-in workshops to get a taste of what acting is like, or to brush up your skills. Then look at our hugely popular Event (which comes with headshots and a final performance in front of casting agents and directors), or the quarterly acting program. If you’re serious about becoming an actor, our comprehensive one year course allows you to develop a deep understanding of screen acting, knowledge of how the industry works and classes on directing, filming and editing. You even receive a professionally finished film for your showreel

The Asa Butterfield Masterclass 2018

Alex Fidelski and the team at London-based The Reel Scene bring on working industry professionals to teach you acting – people like Shobu Kapoor (Bend it Like Beckham, Citizen Khan), Manpreet Bachu (Doctor Who, Humans), Manpreet Bambra (Tezz, Wizards vs. Aliens) and David Schaal (The Inbetweeners). You can take your training even further with masterclasses from industry heavyweights like director Charles Belleville and actor Asa Butterfield (Hugo, Ender’s Game, Journey’s End).

The Reel Scene don’t just teach acting – we teach you about every aspect of the industry. How to make self-tapes, how to audition, how to perform in front of a camera vs on stage. We even have a new TV Presenting Masterclass! The Reel Scene can provide headshots and help you shoot and prepare professional showreels. And we have structured payments plans to make paying for your courses painless.

At The Reel Scene, we’re proud of our reputation – check out The Reel Scene Facebook page, read our Google Reviews, and feel free to ask previous students about their experiences!

We want to help you to make acting your profession in London.

Reel Scene Graduate Testimonials

“A really fun and amazing experience! It was relieving to meet like-minded people who wanted to achieve similar goals. I was lost as to which direction I should take before coming to the REEL scene. I didn’t just want to learn about the skills of acting but I wanted to know how to get into the acting industry. After the 6 day course I definitely know which direction I should take. Thank you all!”

Irham Usman, Reel Scene Graduate

“I’ve done over 10 screen acting workshops including Channel 4 and BBC. I can honestly say The Reel Scene has been the best one yet. The Reel Scene gives you practical lessons and training which is then applied to scripts on a real-life set environment. Because of Alex’s connections you get to showcase what you have learned to established agents and casting directors. You come out the course with a professional show-reel and head-shots too; the two essential tools you need to launch a career. To me, that is what I call effective and why I recommend the Reel Scene to everyone!”

Suraj Rattu, Reel Scene Graduate

“I had an amazing experience with The Reel Scene at their March course – it was crammed full of incredible opportunities and definitely worth the investment. I feel really lucky to not only have made some lifelong friends but I’ve gained a whole family of supportive actors and creatives who I can always call if I need help. Massive thanks to Alex and the team, can’t wait to see you all again soon!”

“No matter what educational background, I reckon anyone interested in getting into the industry should do a Reel Scene week. Alex really knows how to get the ball rolling with your career; he realises how important it is to work with, learn from and get seen by the right people to move forward. The Reel Scene Event has found the niche between full time education and going straight into work.”

Iqbal Kabir, Reel Scene Graduate

“I was at a real cross-road with my career and needed support on how to progress. The Reel Scene One-to-one session enabled me to go through my material and gain the insight and direction I needed from an industry specialist.
