Private coaching from a professional acting coach can be an invaluable tool for actors looking to develop their skills, hone their craft, and take their performances to the next level. In a private coaching session, the actor will receive personalised, one-on-one instruction from an experienced coach who will work with them to identify their strengths and weaknesses and help them develop strategies for improving their performance. Our coaches can help the actor prepare for an upcoming audition or role, providing guidance on script analysis, character development, and performance technique. Additionally, our coach can offer valuable feedback and insight into the industry, helping the actor navigate the business side of the profession and develop their career goals.
Self Tapes: Booking self-tape sessions with one of our professional acting coaches can be an excellent way for actors to elevate their audition performances, stand out from the competition, and increase their chances of booking roles. In a self-tape session, the actor will work with a coach to prepare their audition material, ensuring that they understand the character, the scene, and the story they are trying to tell. They may also provide guidance on technical aspects such as lighting, sound, and framing to ensure that the actor's self-tape looks and sounds professional. By working with a professional coach, actors can gain valuable insights into the audition process, receive constructive feedback on their performance, and improve their chances of success. Overall, booking self-tape sessions with a professional acting coach can be a smart investment for actors looking to advance their careers and take their performances to the next level!
John Stevens, CEO/Founder
Over 30 years in the Film & TV Industry
So often really great artists come to me, but they have no idea how the industry operates. So, I give them the tools and knowledge to make their artistic side profitable. On the other end of the spectrum, I have great business minds come to me to develop their artistic abilities to match their level of marketing savvy. You must master both sides for your career to have traction and longevity.
