Series Regular Audition Intensive

ABOUT THIS CLASS

Let’s be real: auditioning for a series regular can be overwhelming. Whether you’re actively auditioning for these roles and feeling the pressure to deliver, battling impostor syndrome as soon as the audition lands, or tackling this kind of material for the first time—it’s easy to get in your head.

Over four weeks, we’ll focus on series regular material from pilots, breaking down the scripts, character arcs, and what casting directors are really looking for. You’ll learn to refine your approach, quiet the overthinking, and take control of your audition process. Because here’s the truth: landing a series regular role isn’t about perfection. It’s about preparation, a clear perspective, and a strong sense of what you uniquely bring to the table.

There are lots of acting classes in LA but this is the class I've been needing. It’s set like a real audition session, where you have a limited time to prepare, and then you bring your work in front of casting directors with years of experience casting pilots. Each week you are honing your skills for the professional arena. You even get the video files to review on your own. With this series regular class I’m able to stay ready for when those big opportunities happen, and I can walk into casting offices with even more confidence knowing that I’ll be doing my best work. Because in the end, for working actors, it’s the feeling you get after leaving the room knowing you gave your all….that helps you find joy in the process…every time you audition.

Such incredible time and care are taken to create a space in which you can truly discover and develop your voice as an artist. Material specifically for you, so over the course of the class, you come to really understand how casting sees you and your essence. They’re both always so supportive, while also guiding you to a deeper understanding of material, character and story. The class also attracts such high level of talent, just being in the room is a master class every week. I leave feeling so creatively fulfilled after every class. I’ve taken 2 rounds already and will definitely be back for more!"
