Why you need Self Taping School:
Answer this: “What is your success rate?' And it is not 'Did You Book?' But did you get other audition opportunities with this Casting Director. You need to make them want to see more of you. That is the key. By self taping with confidence, you increase the number of auditions you get. You stand out.

Self taping is where actors fall down. How do you promote yourself the right way? How do you know your brand and what is the best way to champion your talent?
Every actor needs to know how to self tape. Now more than ever! More and more auditions are through a self test, and what a major opportunity this is for actors.
The most basic question is where would you be more comfortable to do a great audition? In a cold hostile and unfamiliar casting studio with bright lights and people scrutinising you? Or in the comfort of your own home?
Dumb question right?
In our position as Casting Directors we are hearing more and more actors requesting if they can self tape rather than come in and audition for us. But then, they self sabotage.
They do not understand the fundamentals of how to deliver a memorable and engaging self tape. They have the script, point the camera and say their lines... but does their audition pop?! In a sea of sometimes thousands of tapes we see for a project, how do you stand out?
To be a good auditionee you need to understand how to ‘pop’ in a busy Casting Directors day. It is very easy for us to scroll through after the first 30 seconds without seeing your brilliant work. Why? Because you didn’t engage us.
Our Self Taping Online Course teaches you the do’s and don'ts of the self taping process as well as the things that work and things don’t.
How do we know? Because we see dozens of self tests and self tapes every week in our busy office.

Greg has been casting for over 50 years (yes that makes him sound old! but if you look at his acting history you will see he started as a child actor garnering lead roles in some of our most iconic Australian movies. And as a Casting Director he has cast some of our most iconic movies. He has literally seen hundreds of thousands of auditions (this is not an exaggeration) over the years. He has also been responsible for putting numerous stars in their first stand out roles. Some of the names Greg has helped discover include Russell Crowe, Eric Bana, Jacki McKenzie, Rachel Griffiths, Guy Pearce, Hugo Weaving, Geraldine Hakewill, Radha Mitchell and many more.......
He began his career as an actor. He has walked the red carpet, and performed in musicals, in theatre, on TV and film. Because he was an actor, he knows what you go through. He has sat in the waiting room and has felt the despair at not getting an audition for a role he desperately wanted and believed he was right for.
Being a casting director he’s also seen the other side. He’s witnessed so many talented actors stumble at the audition and make silly mistakes that could have easily been avoided.
So he decided to do something about it, to pass on his knowledge and experience, to help actors audition like a pro.
