Berry's Camera Acting
Berry's Camera Acting aims to become the home to the best camera acting resources for the British Columbia acting community.
We're committed to ensuring this space is fully inclusive so acting berries of all shapes, colours, tastes, ages and beliefs can use it to build up their camera acting skills.
Berry's Camera Acting is not a talent agency, it is not a movie production company, and it is not an acting school. Berry's Camera Acting is not run for profit and is not affiliated with any public or private business entity or organization. Berry's Camera Acting does not endorse any specific acting school, agency, production company or organization.
We wish to keep the website distraction and advertisement-free, keeping its maintenance cost minimal. It is entirely volunteer-based.
You can contribute by sharing your skills and industry knowledge with the rest of the local acting community here in British Columbia. The website is only going to be as good as your contributions. We're always happy to hear your ideas and suggestions: info@bcacting.com
