I really enjoyed taking this course. I gained so much experience and learned so much from it. It helped me with learning to audition and to understand the directors point of view. I learned to be more expressive, which is something I don’t normally do. I think this course will help people have a much better chance to get the role on the audition because you know what you have to do with acting, editing and even filming set up. I would recommend people to take this course if they want to step up their game on acting front.

wow did I learn lots!

I always saw adverts for doing self tape courses, but I never really thought it was that important to know how to do them, so I never took them. But then I recently had to start preparing self tapes for auditions, and decided it wouldn’t hurt to try check one out and see what more I could learn. And wow did I learn lots! For me I feel like I knew some of the basics already, but this course actually helped me fine tune those skills, and understand what casting directors actually look for in self tapes. It also helped me practice acting in front of a camera so close to my face. From my first tape in this course to my last, I can definitely see and feel a difference in my ability to deliver.

From the first day I felt inspired and compelled to work

Sarah Valentine has put together a comprehensive and enjoyable self-tape academy. From the first day I felt inspired and compelled to work at the lessons given and learn the skill. Sharing my self-tapes with her and her colleague Johanna and all the other students in the academy has been a simple and honest way of improving the craft. Thank you so much Sarah for teaching me this valuable skill!

What a confidence booster! 

What a confidence booster!  There is so much more to consider, than just the acting, and this course covers it off nicely. There are also some fantastic tips and interviews from industry experts.

Your “classmates” are just as eager to learn, so it’s a very safe space to work in.

Go on – give it a nudge.  What have you got to lose?
