Our hearts are with the victims of the Bondi tragedy and anywhere across the world right now that needs to be carried through struggle, pain, confusion, fear. 🙏 You are not alone. These shocking moments leave with us the deep exposing of our humanness in all of its facets. The world is imperfect and in it we might turn to seek the preciousness of our time here. We send our love and light ❤️ 💞 🌟

Leonardo Dicaprio speaks about the UNPREDICTABILITY of the direction on Wolf of Wall Street. Something we champion in the audition selftape process. Why be so unpredictable? Cuz everyone else is going to follow the script, the direction, the character brief as predictably as possible. 🥱 Change it up… change the casting director’s view of you. 💥

If you’d like to know more about this process join us in our very last Creating Compelling Characters course. Starts January 19. A game-changer 🔥

👌👏 That’s one small step for man….and one giant leap for the preservation of imperfect creative processes, the minute and laboured over details of the artist’s mind, and the organic craft of acting and film making. AI is a wonderful tool to quicken the pace of certain tasks but when it attempts to mimic every aspect of our beautifully messy, imperfect, experience driven craft…it does pose a threat to jobs and the superb art of storytelling. 🎥

Good on these guys for setting a precedence. The industry needs more opportunities for actors, film makers and writers… not less. Art doesn’t need to be streamlined. It’s a statement on humanity… which is most organic coming from an actual human….. duh! 😅
