In this new casting era, professional relationships are increasingly going digital. To remain competitive and be able to respond to offers everywhere in France, even in Europe or internationally, actors must adapt to the evoluting industry, while keeping their authenticity and creativity.
This is why Acting Lab Studio offers a "Management & Career: Casting Tools" training course. The creation of a Self-Tape and a Reel will give actors the tools to stand out and catch the attention of casting directors.
The Reel
allows actors to showcase their personality, charisma and artistic sensitivity
in addition to their experience and skills.
The Self-Tape
is the essential tool in casting.
Increasingly used, actors no longer have to
physically go to an audition to prove their talent!
Objectives of the training :
- Know the expectations of a casting director and understand the working relationships he or she shares with a director.
- Understand the challenges of a reel and how to share it.
- Know how to identify and highlight the most relevant skills and experiences.
- Learn how to introduce yourself clearly, while emphasizing personality, uniqueness and artistic sensitivity through creative choices.
- Be able to film yourself with your personal devices (smartphone, camera, tablet, etc.) with good audio and video quality.
- Master introduction codes for self-tapes and offer a deep and authentic performance through the use of the Chubbuck Technique.
Coaches :
Acting Lab Studio trainings are given by Eva Bossaer or Patrice Ortega. They were both trained by Ivana Chubbuck and certified by the Chubbuck Studio in Los Angeles.
