Unlocking the Potential
of physical acting
In A Competitive Industry
Everyone Needs An Edge
Knowing What Skills You Need: Many talented actors don’t know what type of training is required to be cast in an Action Actor role.
Missed Opportunities: Without the ability to seamlessly blend acting and physicality, actors miss out on roles that demand both.
Uncertain Future: Professional actors need to work consistently. Increase the amount of roles you book by having the skills to take on any situation.
AI is coming
Motion capture and physical acting will play a larger role in the new industry.
Get ahead of the wave, not behind it.
The industry is changing and we must change with it. The goal of 'The Action Actor' is to prepare you for anything and shield you against the uncertainty of this evolving landscape.
We understand the industry's ebb and flow, and we're here to ensure you not only keep pace but lead the way. Our mission is simple yet profound: to empower you with the skills, knowledge, and mindset needed to thrive, regardless of the industry's direction.
Meet the Maestro Behind Your Transformation
Kirk has taught fight choreography to everyone from up-and-coming child actors to mega stars like Halley Berry, Kate Beckinsale, and Hugh Jackman. He also spent eight years volunteering his free time to teach fight choreography to the vast majority of the top fight/action performers in Western Canada.
A luminary in the entertainment industry — Kirk has performed and/or coordinated action for every Major Hollywood Studio. He has been featured in Movie Maker Magazine, The New York Times, Authority Magazine, Real West Digest, Vancouver View, The Vancouver Sun, The Province, Medium Magazine, and The National Post.
From pioneering wire-work as the Night Crawler stunt double in the groundbreaking opening scene of X-Men 2, to multiple awards and nomination in Directing, Acting and Original Score — Kirk is unmatched in the amount of industry expertise he brings to this course.
He has even been nominated for both ‘BEST ACTOR’ and ‘BEST STUNT’ in a Feature Film by UBCP/ACTRA — an industry recognition that no other performer has ever achieved.
A Key Role In Many Of Hollywoods Biggest Blockbusters
Kirk recently took on the roles of Stunt Actor, Motion Capture Artist, and Additional Stunt Coordinator on the feature film ‘PREY’, which has garnered an incredible six Emmy nominations.

THE CURRICULUM

32 hours of training

Understanding the difference between a Stunt Performer and an Action Actor
Where do you draw the line between Action Acting and Stunt Performing? Who decides this? How and when do you need to take responsibility for your own safety.
Learn on-set stunt etiquette and how to conduct yourself during the rehearsal and shooting of an action scene.
One of the worst characteristics to bring to a stunt rehearsal is to think you know more than you actually do. This is why it is so important to be taught by seasoned industry veterans and not someone with a handful of credits.
When you show up on set, you must know how and where you fit into the scene and the hierarchy of the set.
Learn how to take direction from the Director and Stunt Coordinator simultaneously.
One of the biggest adjustments you will need to make is taking direction from two different people. The Director wants their vision and the Stunt Coordinator wants to achieve the Director’s vision while keeping everyone safe. You need to know how to navigate these dynamics if you want to become a true professional.
Learn and practice a purpose-built conditioning and exercise routine for physical acting.
Like every sport there is specific training that goes into it. Whatever you fitness level, Action Actors must be able to move their bodies in unique ways and avoid injuries.
