Actors always love showing Jeff their work and getting his feedback. Get the New Year off to a great start by letting Jeff see your work.
It's rare that you get one-on-one feedback from a Casting Director. Take advantage of it.
The format is a bit different. See below for details. We'll cover audition skills, monologues and we'll shoot/edit three scenes.
If that fits into your schedule, jump in. We'll work hard and have some fun.
Eight actors. Seven sessions.
Session #1 - We get to know each other and work on auditioning skills. I will send out sides to you ahead of time and we'll work on your audition technique. We get a feel for the different personalities in the room. We do some cold reads. Watch a few selected scenes from film.
Session #2 - More audition work. Cold reads. Actors perform a monologue.
Session #3 - Another monologue.
Session #4 -Rehearse and shoot first scene.
Session #5 - Rehearse and shoot second scene.
Session #6 - Rehearse and shoot third scene.
Prior to session #7 I will edit your scenes.
Session #7 -
Jeff Johnsonwill be in the room to give you feedback on your scenes and on his role in the industry as a Casting Director.
Why should you do a
Scene Study Workshop?
Actors need evidence of their work. You need to have something that shows you off. That gives directors/producers a chance to see you do some material that really reveals the depth of your acting talent.
There are a lot of good actors whose reels are either non-existent or sadly lacking in content. Don't be one of them.
You'll walk away with three edited scenes that you may choose to use as a reel or as additions to your existing reel.
As is customary at the Workshop, all your work will be on camera and uploaded to my website where you can review it, share it and learn from it.
What Actors and Agents are saying about the Workshop:
Michael, we do push our actors to continue their training... and be ready for any and all opportunities that might come their way. Thank you for being hard on them... we need to take many of them to the next level. Being exposed to a working professional of your stature is a treat. ~ Vickie Panek, TMG/Talent Management Group
We've had many actors take Michael Flynn's Workshop. After some hard work ontheir part and phenomenal guidance on Michael's part the progress is evident! Michael knows how to tap into an actor's raw talent and polish them into a better version of themselves. Our actors have gotten more callbacks and bookings since Michael Flynn entered their lives. ~ Liz Knight, Knightstar
Without a doubt the most helpful class I have taken (and that includes my schooling in LA). Love me some Michael Flynn! ~ KayCee Stroh
Thank you for your attention and care for the actors. In you, I feel like I have a professional and an artist I can trust. ~ Aline Andrade
This workshop has been such an incredible experience for me, I feel like I'velearned so much in just 3 weeks. I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn from one of the best in the business and for the new friends I've made who constantly inspire me to be a better actor. ~ Jaci Twiss
Michael, I can't tell you how much I value your input. Each session I realize more your enormous talent and feel so fortunate to be one of your students. I've worked on sets with you a few times, but had no idea of your great talent. I'd take your workshop year-round if I could. I loved every minute of it. ~ Gwen Maw
Thank you so much for your focus and direction. This is the 3rd time I've taken the Workshop and I will be back. So many "Ah-hah" moments. So much more to learn from you. You direct with passion and determination.~ Stacey Turner
Michael is actually a working actor with terrific insight into acting techniques aswell as character development. He also has many practical tips on things like auditioning and "on the set" etiquette. Best of all he's a great teacher and able to communicate his ideas clearly. ~ Teri Cowan
Michael knows actors, how to work with them and how to get the best out ofthem. Certainly, he is an accomplished actor himself and becoming a well-known director of significance. However what is most important for the actor developing his or her craft is Michael's insights, understanding and ability to work with you to draw out the best work in you in your journey to become an outstanding actor in your own right, proficient in your acting craft. That is what is most valuable. That's why you do this workshop. ~ Maikel Bailey
Loving this class. Absolutely loving it. I leave with a thrill every night... proud of myself for doing it, excited to try and push more, intrigued by the specifics. ~ Joanna Larsen
