Celebrating KS Alumni Alex Stedman-Writer/Director/Producer "Portrait Haus"Starring KS Members Alex Stedman, Brigitte Williamson,Taylor Larson. "When I first started looking for an acting studio after moving to LA, I was overwhelmed by the sheer number of options, styles, techniques. etc. Krater Studios immediately felt like a creative, comfortable, and uniquely challenging—yet safe—landing pad. Not just for my acting, but for my sense of community.
Krater people are truly special. They’ve influenced almost every aspect of my life—from getting my survival job to my closest friendships to the insanely talented network of artists I get to cast in projects like Portrait Haus. This comedic pilot is my baby, so naturally, I only want the most nurturing and talented people on board. The fact that a third of the cast is from Krater speaks volumes about the artistry this studio cultivates—some of the most brilliant actors I have ever seen! And not just that, but dedication—Krater people also showed up behind the scenes, helping out on set and making the production possible. Jen and Paolo are a support system in themselves, championing this project—and every project their actors take on. Even after briefly stepping away from classes, I always know Krater will be there for me. This place isn’t just a studio. It’s a force."
