Auditioning. It’s “kind of" like acting. We demystify how to break down tv and film scripts. Multi-cam, single-cam, drama….we got you!! There are clues in the script, hiding in plain sight, you’ve just never been told how to look for them. Our endeavor is to train actors to make strong, text-based choices not solely on a character breakdown, but also on the material’s genre, network, director and writer… all in an effort to book the job and excel at it!
From Classes, To Private Coaching, Audition Taping and Career Consults
"The teachers at SKS are able to instantaneously discover weaknesses an actor may be unaware of. They have an amazing gift of being able to effectively and honestly communicate with the actor allowing for immediate growth and change. SKS has helped me hone my craft in a way no other studio has yet. Thank you!"
-Alan Ritchson (REACHER, Series Lead)

"SKS has helped me find MYSELF in my acting again! For years I was so focused on trying to give casting what I thought they wanted, and I forgot to bring myself to every character. SKS has shown me that the most unique thing you can be as an actor is YOURSELF. That you should trust your instincts and your impulses, and never dim your own light. The studio is a safe, supportive and encouraging space to have fun, play, and be yourself."

"My life completely changed after my 1st consultation at SKS. After 7 months of working there, I found a manager and theatrical agent, went through my first pilot season, and booked a Series Regular on a multicam show. If you want to be a WORKING actor, this is where working actors train."
-Christine Ko (Dave, Series Regular)

ACTING CLASSES TO LEVEL UP YOUR CAREER
CHECK OUT OUR CURRENT CLASS OFFERINGS AND SCHEDULE
Professional athletes never stop training. Their goal is to stay in impeccable shape and continue to develop a winning edge. You are all athletes and acting is your sport. Ongoing class is your gym. We will push you, but we are looking for actors who want and are willing to push themselves as well. Keep training in order to constantly operate at the top of your game and book!
In ongoing class, actors will receive a different assignment/audition each week from material that is currently casting. Over the course of a given month, you’ll work on “live” as well as “on camera” auditions. We will also assign chemistry reads occasionally and you are allowed and encouraged to bring “real” auditions or bookings into class that you have not yet had or shot and work on them. You are required to be fully prepared and off book in class, and if so, will work multiple times. Of course, if you receive an audition at the last minute, we understand you will not be off book and will still be be able to work through the material with your teacher.
Step 3: Ongoing Class ($300)
Our Audition Bootcamp is often regarded as the most comprehensive, in depth audition class in town. It is an advanced class that moves very quickly and leaves actors feeling more confident and making stronger text based choices in their real auditions. It gets everyone on the same page with regards to techniques, terminology, vernacular and ensures that we are able to place you in an ongoing class that will both push and challenge you accordingly.
STEP 2: AUDITION BOOTCAMP
The first step is to set up a small group consultation with our lead teacher, Colleen (maximum 4 ppl). It is essentially a mini-class, providing you an opportunity to meet Colleen, work with her, and ask any questions you may have. It also allows her to go over all the pertinent class information and make sure Bootcamp is the right fit for each individual. Prior to your consultation, we will send you a scene to fully prepare, just as you would for class or a real audition.

Audition TAping
STAND OUT WITH A PROFESSIONAL AUDITION TAPE
- Your session includes coaching, taping, watching back and choosing the takes that are best. We don’t want you to feel rushed, so keep that in mind when deciding how much time to book based on the amount of material.
- Your coach will be your reader unless you bring in your own reader and, in that case, your coach will run camera. in either case, your coach will give you notes throughout your taping.
- Upon your arrival at the studio, you will run through the material with your coach and get general notes. We prefer to start taping pretty quickly as you will also receive notes in between takes and this maximizes your time. You only need one great take and we want to be sure and capture that as soon as it happens!
- Once you and your coach are both satisfied, we will upload your audition, and add title cards at the beginning and end of the file and send it to you as a .mov file via wetransfer.com
Taping Without Coaching Rate:
$1 per minute (30 minute minimum)
