Toronto – sometimes called Hollywood North – and the surrounding region known as “The Golden Horseshoe” ranks third in film and digital media production in North America and ranks second as an exporter of digital streaming and cable tv programming in North America.
Niagara College's focus continues to be superior actor training with courses in voice, speech, movement, scene study and auditioning for film and television. Niagara College is also one of the few Canadian post-secondary institutions that offer direct instruction in The Meisner Technique, one of the foremost acting techniques taught today. In light of the changing nature of the industry and the rise of more entrepreneurial self-created web content, students will also study film editing, screenwriting, stunt training, voiceover acting, self-marketing and acting with technology (eg. Green Screen) bringing a dual focus to the program; the actor and entrepreneur.
Niagara College's instructors are working industry professionals in the Toronto region and across Canada.
