The New School Screenwriting Certificate Program

VOICEOVER is our signature script-reading event, where screenplays written by students are brought to vivid life as select portions are read by professional actors live before an audience of students, peers, family, and invited film industry professionals. The event provides six selected students with the invaluable experience of both hearing their characters come alive, while also offering them the chance to publicly showcase their talent as they venture out into the professional world.
