THE COMMERICAL AUDITION WORKSHOP
THE ACTOR’S FOUNDRY PRESENTS:

TWO DAY COMMERCIAL AUDITION  WORKSHOP: "Bringing Your Acting to the Client"
with JEB BEACH


Demystify the “rules” of commercial acting; GET HIRED by delivering what the CLIENT wants. Distill Commercial Acting down to its fundamentals:

Good Acting and Good Sales

Actors are given a series of commercial sides in advance of the workshop, but are also invited to bring specific sides they would like to work on. Jeb will use the sides as a the material for taking actors through a practical workout that will provide a real sense of understanding and confidence in the work

“Commercial Acting is acting under specific circumstance: SALES. Acting is telling the STORY, while Sales is PRODUCT plus PITCH. It is imperative to know your SELF, know the STORY, know the PRODUCT, and know the PITCH. In doing so, you will be an actor immersed in the role; the “role” is playing the story of the product and the pitch. What the client will ultimately hire is your specific quality egolessly combined with their specific pitch.

DAY 1 Learn and apply the rules of sales to commercial sides to understand how to confidently approach the roles.  Work on nailing the slate and owning the audition from sign in to exit.


DAY 2 Practical application of specific audition room technique, the "improv audition", the "tell us something about yourself" audition.  Final actual audition run throughs of sides chosen from Day 1.  All auditions filmed and available for review online.

“Jeb Beach is a smart performer who consistently books. I've hired Jeb for many commercials and I can always recommend him to my clients with complete confidence.” Sean Milliken, Casting Director

“Working with Jeb as a coach has had many rewards…his understanding of the commercial audition process is impeccable. I had the good fortune of entering a callback room with Jeb. To watch him warm, work and own the room upon entrance was remarkable. Needless to say we both booked it…Jeb's understanding and professionalism truly shine…” David Attar, Actor
