Arts & Entertainment

Los Angeles is front and center of much of the entertainment world. Movies, film, cinematography, video and television require actors, screenplay writers, directors, producers, choreographers, music composers, sound engineers, postproduction editors and other critical roles both up front and behind the scenes. More broadly, the arts include literature (drama, prose and poetry), performing arts (theatre, music, dance) and visual arts (architecture, graphic design, painting, photography, drawing, sculpting and more). In this workshop we offer you a taste of this delicious and exciting arena!
