Catapult Conservatory Returns for Its Second Year Following a Sold-Out Inaugural Season

Applications Now Open for Atlanta's Premier Film & TV Acting Training Program

ATLANTA, April 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a successful inaugural year with completely sold-out programs, Catapult Acting Studios is proud to announce that applications are now open for the second year of the Catapult Conservatory. This innovative program continues to elevate on-camera acting training in the Southeast to unprecedented heights.

The Conservatory, designed for actors ages 10-25, offers specialized courses for both developmental actors and those at advanced and professional levels. The comprehensive thirty-three week curriculum challenges participants to master the technical, creative and emotional components of on-camera acting, preparing them to compete with the best talent in the industry. The program also includes valuable educational sessions for parents navigating the entertainment industry alongside their children. Entry remains selective through an application and audition process, ensuring only the most dedicated and promising talent joins the Conservatory.

"Last year's response to the launch of the Conservatory was overwhelming, reinforcing our belief that Georgia is ready to become a major hub for acting talent," said Erik Lingvall, founder of Catapult Acting Studios. "The Southeast is already home to some of the biggest productions in the industry. Now, we're continuing our mission to make it the home of the best actors as well."

The timing of the Conservatory's expansion aligns perfectly with Georgia's continued prominence in the entertainment industry. With film and TV productions consistently investing over $4 billion annually in the state, the demand for professionally trained local actors continues to grow.

Both industry professionals and parents have taken notice of the Conservatory's impact. Ivan Shammus, whose son completed the inaugural year, shared: "The transformation we've seen in our son has been remarkable. Not only has his acting technique improved dramatically, but his confidence has soared. What truly sets Catapult Conservatory apart is the incredible support system they've built—from the instructors who genuinely care about each student's growth to the staff who lead the parent education sessions that helped us understand how to navigate this industry alongside our child. Most importantly, Catapult helped him connect with a top Atlanta talent agency, where he is now signed. It's been an invaluable experience for our entire family."

The second year of the program will begin in August 2025 and will be hosted at Catapult Acting Studios in Atlanta.
