SAC founder and co star of mega budget NAUTILUS and co-star of the LOGIE and AACTA winning NEWSREADER will be in Perth to teach an advanced screen acting workshop for professional actors.
SAC is one of Australia’s premier non beginner acting studios with actors on major TV shows and films. SAC works with professional actors in Sydney, Melbourne, Los Angles and New York. Chum will bring his unique brand of coaching that has seen him on some of the biggest shows in Australia and the US.
CHUM EHELEPOLA is a staple in Australian TV. He is currently appearing in ONE NIGHT (NETFLIX), NEWS READER 3 SEASONS (ABC), NAUTILUS (Stan) and just wrapped on SUNNY NIGHTS (Stan) due for release next year. He has an active career in Australia and Hollywood, having spent 10 years working in the US with active representation.
What to expect?
Professional actors tend to overthink and try and do a “perfect” scene, which can be toxic and stress inducing. In this workshop Chum will show actors how to find peace, fun and spontaneity in their work.

Much like the workshops in Sydney, Melbourne and Los Angeles, the workshop will focus on nuanced screen acting. Focus will be spent on;
- Non analytical performances
- Embracing failure as a tool for success
- Getting out of your head and into your body
- Dangerous acting to create compelling performances
- Finding truth in the work
- Organic impulsive choice making
- FUN! How to have fun with auditions and acting
- Finding freedom in your acting
- HOW TO DO AN ENGAGING TRUTHFUL FREE SELF TAPE
The half day evening class will focus on SELF TAPES. How to honor the script but also bring your unique quality to the character to make the character and self tape feel unique.
SAC success is undeniable and we are excited to bring our unique and acclaimed style of advanced coaching to Perth. SAC actors are currently starring in Home and Away, HeartBreak High, Apples Never Fall and even winning the Heath Ledger Scholarship.
