CINEMATIC SELF TAPE - MASTERCLASS: I spent countless hours through the pandemic coaching and running my self tape auditions by Industry leaders to see what works, what doesn’t work, and how to really build a strong compelling self-tape. I also got input from Directors and show runners through the years when I would book jobs or come close like: JAY ROACH, TASHA SMITH, JEFF BYRD, JOHN SINGLETON, MARY LOU BELLI, BETHANY ROONEY, JOHN SWANBECK and more… I gathered intel on why and how to deepen the personal experience and tell stories from my heart and soul that were in alignment with the writers words. I began creating Cinematic Self-Tapes and it became much more fun, like a painter with a brush. I started getting traction on most of my tapes with a Booking, Pin, or Avail check (going to producers) on a majority of my tapes. It’s now more uncommon for me not to hear anything when I send a tape. I know many actors struggle with this and wish they were in the room so I decided to teach this system to find your inner voice and express that through the words like poetry. Even if you don’t book that particular job it’s as if you’re “shooting your coverage” that day, had a personal experience and shared a piece of your soul with whoever viewed your tape. You can also use these tapes to secure reps get more auditions and use to pitch for projects. After learning this system your tapes will be stronger than your current reel!Professional Actor / Movie Producer / Industry Advisor

“I believe being successful at anything requires, hard work, (But the right hard work), persistence and burning desire to succeed. I incorporate many things I’ve learned along the way to inspire people with a combination of motivation, success principals, and forming small mastermind groups of like minded individuals on a road to success.

I help actors define where you are and where you want to be and map a path of achievable steps to get there.
