The Two Day Tape · Premium · London

Build it. Then film it.

For a tape that matters — a recall, a first lead, a casting director you’ve been trying to reach.

All the coaching you can get against the clock. Then I direct you, film you, and pick your strongest takes with you. You leave with the tape.

How it works

Two days. One tape you’re proud to send.

  1. Day one — Zoom, up to two hours.We break the scene down and build your process into it, so you know exactly what you’re doing and why — with clear homework to prepare.
  2. Overnight.You rehearse it.
  3. Day two — my private studio in north London.I direct and film it, guiding you to do your best. As many takes as the work needs. I choose your strongest takes, and you can bring a laptop and upload with me before you leave.

Shot in the format casting directors want, and built to look like you did it yourself. Because you did.

Why two days

The performance exists before the camera goes on.

Two days, so there’s time to build the performance before we film it — objectives, substitution, inner objects, the whole process worked into your script — and the filming is about catching it, not finding it.

Two days, all the coaching you can get, directing on the day, your strongest takes selected, uploaded together. It’s a premium service, and it’s priced for one scene.
