We updated our look here at Forge Film Acting. The old website didn't feel like us, and we wanted to fix some of the things our students asked for from the previous website while we were at it. You can still book acting classes and weekend on-camera acting intensives on our website, but here's all the new stuff you can do on our ✨shiny new site!✨

New Stuff

We have a whole new location, the Central Forge, which is on the Flyover Film Studios campus in Central Illinois. Classes and intensives will be available as soon as the paint dries at the new space. Stay tuned for more information, and remember to subscribe to our newsletter to stay up-to-date on new events at both locations.We're headed to Central Illinois to keep Illinois film growing and Chicago working on more than just TV shows. Our Central Forge can hold up to 16 students in our new classroom, and will be the home of Compass Casting's Central Office as well. We can't wait to have you all.
We got merch! Check out our merch store for our virtual lecture series, notebooks, hats, shirts, and more! We'll have items available in person, and we can't wait to sport them around town. There are multple colors, sizes, and options for our gear, and we'll add limited releases and charity merch to benefit our favorite organizations. Keep an eye out 👀
New teachers and classes coming soon! From teachers with LA experience to Chicago strongholds, and even a recent Broadway actor coming this fall to Chicago, we're offering so much more at forge film acting!

What's in a name?

Founder Sarah Cayce spent a lot of time watching blacksmiths turn horseshoes, and saw that metal, with enough heat, pressure, and consistency, can be turned into almost anything. Like metal, actors can make themselves into almost anything with the same consistency...and a very different kind of heat. 😉 Get into an on-camera acting class, one-on-one coaching session, or a casting consultation to forge the career you want.
