Porn Valley- Actor and television and Internet host, James Bartholet will be conducting a new acting workshop on Sunday, May 18th.

Geared toward adult performers who want to sharpen their acting chops, this new one day workshop will cover the basics of acting and improvisation, with on camera tapings of acting scenes. The workshops will be in West Hollywood. The price will be $50.00 per student.

The classes are four to five hours long, and interested students should sign up for Sunday’s workshop now. The workshop will start at 1:00pm.

“With many features being shot, and performers wanting to make that transition into mainstream, I think this will be a great workshop for them to take, and we’ve had some great response to this workshop” said Bartholet. “We will go over scene study, character development, improvisation skills, and we will tape a scene that the students pick from a mainstream film, television, or stage production”.

Bartholet has many years experience in acting and directing in the mainstream industry, and acts in many adult features. He recently was an AVN 2008 Best Performance Non Sex Nominee for Sex Z Pictures “The Real Boogie Nights”. Bartholet recently completed filming on X Play and Adam & Eve’s production of “Not Bewitched XXX”, and begins filming X Play and Hustler’s “Ain’t The Partridge Family” next month.

Bartholet has a degree from Los Angeles Valley College, and has several acting awards and nominations from his many years on stage. Bartholet has performed in various stage productions from coast to coast, as well as television and films, and performed sketch comedy at The Comedy Store, and The Improv.
