Lori Lewis of FreeSpirit Casting to join the October weekend audition intensive!

Joining us in the workshop on Saturday is going to be Lori Lewis of Free Spirit Casting. Lori has worked on Leverage, Twilight, Extraordinary Measures, and much more. She is fantastic at her job, and brings a treasure trove of information with her to the workshop. She always tells it like it is when she visits, and her feedback is always valuable.

The workshop takes place on Saturday and Sunday, 10/18 and 10/19, from 9am-5:30pm. $185.

The goal of this workshop is to illuminate, for each actor, the things they are doing well in auditions -- and those pesky things that require attention. It usually doesn't take more than seeing yourself on a several foot tall screen to instantly see where you need improvement... haha. Becoming confident and competent in auditions is not something that happens overnight. It takes a dedication to finding a place within yourself from which to always show off the best of what you've got!

The PayPal button up there to the right is the best way to secure your spot in this workshop today! I am limiting the workshop to the first 12 actors who register.
