Okay! So, I am sure you heard about or attended our intensive all about mastering your audition, right?….Well, with this intensive we take you out of the audition room and into the world of the production, teaching you what to expect, how to behave, what to avoid, and how to excel!

A working production set can be an overwhelming and confusing environment for the actor, and this workshop will demystify the whole adventure, so you know what to expect, who’s who, and how to prepare for your time on the job.

We will also teach you how to dig deeper into your script analysis technique, so you can go beyond what you did during your audition.

Learning the difference between a co-star role on TV, a background artist in a commercial, and a lead in an independent feature film is important for the northwest actor, as each job will have its own unique challenges. In this intensive we will teach you how each booking is different, and how to prepare for each kind of job.

This intensive will be taught by MTP founders David S. Hogan and Angela DiMarco, working actors who have been plying their craft in the Pacific Northwest entertainment industry for many years. Our experiences have taught us so much over the past 20+ years, and we look forward to sharing that knowledge with you.
