Ringling College of Art and Design and Semkhor Productions has announced the wrap of Season Ten of the Ringling College Studio Labs, and that the 2019 Summer Studio Labs feature film, Acting: The First Six Lessons, with Beau Bridges, will begin shooting July 5 in Sarasota. The project is a hybrid documentary/feature film based on a play of the same name written by Beau and Emily Bridges, in turn based on the book of the same name written by Richard Boleslavsky.

Acting: The First Six Lessons has been in pre-production for the past three months with Ringling College Film Program graduates and seniors staffing key positions on the project. More than 30 Film students are also working on the film under the guidance of Ringling College Film Program Head Bradley Battersby. The opportunity for experiential learning that enables students to work alongside industry professionals before graduation is a hallmark of the Ringling College Film Program.
