Jeb Beach and Associates are offering one of their most popular Actor Development Classes.

Auditioning is a skill in and of itself.  It’s all about creating an engaging experience for the audience, and collaborating with casting to create interesting, viable character options for their client.  Back to Booking is the industry-driven, weekly auditioning training designed to keep you showing up to be invited back.  Every time.

Each week, you’ll choose from a selection of materials, sent in advance,  that represent the range of auditions you’ll read for in Vancouver.  You are also free to bring your own material in to work with.

As the weeks progress, you’ll work styles and role levels that will challenge  and increase your ability to produce interesting, memorable, unique, bookable auditions.

The tastes and styles of each Casting Director will also be reviewed as we go and over time, you’ll gain unique insight into how to adjust for success in each room.

Jeb Beach and Associates are offering one of their most popular Actor Development Classes.

Team Works is an environment that removes the option to get complacent, and will challenge actors to consider many perspectives, empowering their discovery of their own.

It’s the class that gets the JBA Team collaborating for the actors success.  We talk about you with each other – what’s working, what’s not, how we feel we can support your progress artistically and professionally.   It gets us all working as a team because…. TEAM works.

Each week, the teacher will pick a focus (Comedy, presence, a particular TV Series to work on, Bookable Moments, Nailing a Callback… the list goes on…).  

You’ll come to class ready to read your audition, and will present on camera in a private audition setting. The work is then reviewed in a group setting, allowing everyone to benefit and grow from the thought process behind  adjustments, tips, and tricks imparted to each actor. 

All work is recorded and provided for private review and/or download online.
