WHAT CASTING WANT…

 

FACT: 99% of Casting Directors will ONLY work with people who have training!

Casting always checks out your resume. I cannot stress the importance of constantly training! It DRAMATICALLY  increases the probability of you, not only, getting an audition but BOOKING. And we all want that 🙂

This weekend we’re offering an on camera day of workshops! MARCH 9 10-4pm

Film and TV Acting Workshop you walk away with a taped scene that you can upload to your networking sites (Casting workbook, Actors Access, Breakdown Services, 800 Casting) showing casting your most recent work! It also helps your agent when they are pitching you for roles!

Did you know that commercial actors can make a VERY comfortable living? Learn from 2 of our coaches in our Commercial Audition Workshop who have booked well over 80+ commercials between the 2 of them.

It’s a great opportunity to dig deep, stretch, add to your acting materials and study with some of the best acting coaches in Toronto.
