Take Comedy 101 With The Chaser’s Chris Taylor

Are you “a voice” of “a generation”? Could you out-awkward Larry David or slot into the writing team at 30 Rock? Do you think you could do a better job than Darren McMullen? Do you have aspirations to be Kerri-Anne 3.0? If you said yes to any of the above then kick start your career in television and check out AFTRS’ Open Short Courses.

Their latest course offerings give you the chance to learn from some of the best and brightest in the celluloid biz. From a Journalism Boot Camp with veteran anchorman Mike Munro to a TV presenting course with the immaculate Tracey Spicer, AFTRS have you covered, Ron Burgundy.

If behind the scenes is more your thing, there’s a comedy writing course with the subversive Chris Taylor from The Chaser or a Director’s course with the mind behind 2004’s Somersault, Cate Shortland, who can also lay claim to having directed the most successful man in voiceovers ever, Sam Johnson, aka Evan from The Secret Life of Us.

AFTRS Open Short Courses for Television has something for anyone wanting to make their mark or get their start in the Australian Television Industry and with a newly refurbished and completely functional television studio, they’ve never looked better.

For more information check out the full course listing and schedule at the AFTRS Open Short Courses for Television website. You can also head to the AFTRS Open Facebook Page for more updates. If you need more inspiration just imagine where a degree in LOL could take you:
