This workshop will be a unique, opportunity to ask a TV/Film Hollywood Casting Director anything you ever wanted to know about moving to LA or what it takes to be a working in the LA market. You will also get a chance to meet one on one with Corbin and work a prepared scene/monologue, as you would in an Agent meeting, receive feedback on your choice and your actor type. The Casting Director will also be providing cold readings that will allow the actors to work on their cold reading skills in partnered scenes. This workshop is not to teach you "how to act", but it is to teach you the techniques needed for optimal success. From prepared material to cold material, we will cover all it takes to becoming a successful actor, no matter what market you live in.

This opportunity is priceless, DO NOT miss it!!!

This workshop will explore the world of being a Voiceover actor. This is not a workshop to teach you how to act but to teach you the techniques to being a VO actor. This workshop is for those actors who are looking to expand their acting bandwidth. You do not need to have a VO demo to take this class. This class will teach you the basics of getting work as a VO actor and the how to's to put a VO demo together. Darren "Doc" Roubinek, from Fasone & Partners, and Deana Winter, from Wheeler Audio will act as your the client and give you the direction and feedback from a producers standpoint. You will be given a script a couple days to work on and bring in the class and work on in the booth.  This workshop was created to give the actor an opportunity to get in a real recording studio and practice the craft of Voiceover acting and be given direction and feedback by professionals working in the business.
Don't miss it!
