Having a reel is now an acting necessity! The industry wants to see what you are made of before they call you in for an audition. For those who don’t know, a reel is a short compilation of your filmed acting work, even if it’s just one scene! At the Actor’s Studio of Orange County, we produce reels for actors that demonstrate the BEST of their acting, because we focus on preparing the actors for the performance. Actors who join us for the December Reel Intensive (DRI) will receive a polished scene that they can be proud of. DRI is also a great way to assess where you are in your acting and prepare for a real, professional shoot.

Here are links to the previously filmed scenes at the studio:

Examples of Custom Written Scenes

COMEDY:

* Tears of a Clown: https://youtu.be/e_YOVNG7BDw

Once you sign up:

• We will assess what your needs are for the reel. What genre do you want to do, what is your type? What do you want to “sell” about yourself?

• You will be paired with a partner (of a similar training level and experience)**

• You will be assigned a scene appropriate for your goals and level.

• Over 4 sessions, Monday - Thursday, students will be immersed in a professional rehearsal experience where they are expected to prepare their scene, receive acting coaching, direction and blocking and come in the next day ready to go deeper. As always, we emphasize the quality of the performance in a reel, as that is the most important factor, so with the coaching of Philip, students will craft and polish a performance.

• On the final day, Saturday, we will film the scenes! We transform every nook and cranny of the studio into a film set that suits your storyline. Each scene is allotted 60 minutes (or more depending) to film their scenes.

• Within a month, you will receive a polished product.

Custom Written Scene Add-On: Finding the right scene is extremely important, so if you would like to have a scene custom written to suit your aims and needs for the reel, this is the best option for you. Our in-house script writer is certain to get a great script written just for you.
