Part 1
Ted guides you through a step-by-step process of what to do from the moment you receive the appointment to the final execution of your work.
How to prepare: we walk through the best use of your time, talent, and resources to take your work to the next level (for actors of ALL levels). Focus is on priority of questions and most effective way to own the role.
You will also be given a scene IN CLASS—no prepared work in advance.
Part 2
Each actor will be taped for the role given/prepared in Part 1. Ted guides you step-by-step on the creative and technical elements to create a top-level professional audition, applicable to in-person and self-tape auditions. The takeaway? You will immediately be able to apply the lessons from Part 1 in Part 2 in an actual audition taping.
Each actor’s journey is unique, and you will be given specific tools to take your personal work to the next level from where you currently are.
Ted will lead actors through the casting process in a safe & constructive environment.
Each actor’s submission will be viewed again receiving specific notes from Ted on both acting & technical elements of your self-tape:
“Ted is the greatest gift to actors here in Hollywood. I was so happy to see him perform in NYC.
