I will work with you for as little, or as much time as you need. Sessions can be booked singly or in blocks, and you can save if you prepay for a block of sessions (see below).
I also offer a full mentoring package of weekly sessions over twelve weeks which will bring the full and considerable gamut of my knowledge and experience as a writer and director to the training and development of client actors screen acting skills.
I work with actors in 40 minute sessions over Zoom, using a blend of recorded lectures to establish working principles, screen acting exercises to develop precise understanding, and regular and comprehensive personal feedback to hone skills.
I will also be available to advise and consult on the best approaches to opportunities that may arise, including auditions and self tapes.

My Approach
My approach brings together decades of professional experience, writing, producing and directing film and TV productions. The masterclass linked on the right, outlines what I teach, my methods and how and why it is effective. It centres on the proposition that the actor is the avatar for the audience, and via the actors deeply felt performance, the audience empathically accesses and feels the story.
The actor and their performance therefore is absolutely vital to the the success of any production, and explains why casting the right, the capable, the highly skilled actor is any directors first priority.
How It Works?
Schedule a Free 1:1
I am available during the week to discuss your needs. Please use the link below to email me and we can set a time to chat through the ways in which I might be able to help. There is no charge for the first session.
Please include a little information in your email about your training, your current experience, aspirations and what help you particularly feel you could use.
I’m afraid I cannot work with beginners. I have found that I can most help those who have already made solid efforts to develop and deploy their craft and who therefore have a good basis of understanding to work from.
Client Feedback
Session Coaching
Best for quite experienced actors who need specific help. If you get an audition or a self-tape that you need help with, I can work with you to get your perfomance on point.
One session is rarely enough to fully explore and prepare a performance, so please allow at least two.

3 Month Coaching Package
This is ideal for actors with a fair amount of experience, and whose understanding is sufficient that they can grasp the essence of my teaching quite quickly. We will work together over 12 weeks, in 40 minute sessions. We will explore the deeper process of script reading, how that translates into performance and how you bring your own essence fully into the role and transform your performances. Payment can be spread over three months.
