7 Day Self Tape Academy

I feel much more confident and competent at self tapes since completing the course.

This course was excellent for learning the basics of self tape auditioning which is extremely helpful for the shift to online auditions.  All the tools and tutorials are provided which saves time in researching.  Sarah is available for help and gives regular feedback from which everyone can learn and improve.  Useful tips are abundant from Sarah and other students are able to share their observations too. Smaller course numbers work well.  Thanks Sarah and team for putting this course together, I feel much more confident and competent at self tapes since completing the course.

I had so much fun on the Self Tape course

I had so much fun on the Self Tape course, and came away much more inspired and confident than I felt going in. Sarah is a wonderful mentor; you can really see she is passionate about helping her students do their best. Her kindness and knowledge really shines, and the “self-tape community” was so encouraging and welcoming the whole way through.

The support I got from other students were amazing

Challenging, and thoroughly enjoyable.

Teen Academy – It’s a lot of hard work, but I think it pays off.

I really enjoyed Sarah’s self taping course. I now feel confident to film my self-tape, and get the lighting and framing spot on. It’s a lot of hard work, but I think it pays off.

Thank you for helping children like me grow up to be Actors

Thank you, Sarah, so much for putting so much time in this course to help support other children like me grow up to be actors.

You are amazing.

Thank you

I really enjoyed this course. I am one of those people that THINK they know it all. I thought I knew what a casting person would want form a self-tape. Boy was I off! I got great tips and feedback from Sarah and the rest of the class. Very satisfying to see your last self-tape compared to your first one. I now feel confident that I can deliver a quality self-tape that will help me nail that next gig! I would recommend you take this every actor, even if you THINK you know what you are doing. Thank you Sarah.

I thought the Self-Tape 7 day course was brilliant! There was lots of really good and helpful training information provided. The scripts were super fun and I enjoyed the variation in the scripts too. Sarah provided awesome support throughout the program. A big “thank you” to Sarah. The web page for the course was easy to navigate. It also promoted a group atmosphere amongst the participants. That was wonderful. I feel like I’ve come a long way in such a short time thanks to this course. I totally recommend this!

 I would rate it a 12 out of 10!

I Really enjoyed The challenge of the course.

I would rate it a 12 out of 10!

I learned some great skills in the 7 days I consider myself to be a technology dinosaur yet I got by, editing compressing my videos and uploading them. Learning new scripts every day and receiving reviews from our facilitator and peer group.
Well done Sarah You lived up to your reputation!

What a confidence booster! 

You build a connection with the other students and they’re very supportive.

This course was amazing! Sarah is so kind and helpful. She provides a lot of useful information and I’m incredibly grateful for her advice. She’s wonderful!! You build a connection with the other students and they’re very supportive. You gain a lot of confidence. It’s a beautiful experience, one I’ll never forget.

The 7-day course with Self Tape Academy helped me build the confidence to create my own self-tapes for future auditions.

Everything from acting tips, lighting tips, framing tips, and more – the tutors gave helpful and honest feedback. The other students were hugely supportive and encouraging. This course is very engaging considering it’s all done online. I highly recommend this course for every actor because we are heading toward self-tapes being the new norm!

Great Course!

Great course! I have learned so much during these 7 days. Definitely recommend doing it!

It was an intense few days, but awesome fun and I learned so much

Thanks to everyone involved in this Self Taping course.  It was an intense few days, but awesome fun and I learned so much.  It was great getting everyone’s feedback and being able to make each new video better using that information.

I will definitely recommend this course to others and I can’t wait to use my new-found knowledge when applying it in the industry to land a real part.

(I would have filmed this but I had packed everything up)

Thanks again.

Over and above,getting some great acting advice.

You will learn the basics of how to Light, Frame, and Edit your Audition from your like-minded course peers. On my course, everyone was really supportive and provided great feedback to make each day’s Audition, just that little bit better. Really enjoyed it!

Thank you so much Sarah for providing this amazing Workshop.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course that Sarah provided for us.  I found the interaction with the other students and the feedback that everyone gives back to each other on your daily Takes is really beneficial and it made me work better on the areas I needed to work on.

I gained so much more confidence to now act in front of the camera and it was fun too.
Thank you so much Sarah for providing this amazing Workshop.

I really enjoyed taking this course. I gained so much experience and learned so much from it. It helped me with learning to audition and to understand the directors point of view. I learned to be more expressive, which is something I don’t normally do. I think this course will help people have a much better chance to get the role on the audition because you know what you have to do with acting, editing and even filming set up. I would recommend people to take this course if they want to step up their game on acting front.

Teen Challenge – Sarah has provided a platform that caters to all abilities

I have really enjoyed this course, and learnt so much about the art of self tape. The community is so friendly and I have felt very welcome and able to share ideas. Sarah has provided a platform that caters to all abilities and lessons that are informative and enjoyable to learn. I would recommend this course to all actors and anyone who would like to learn how to create a better self tape.

7 day Self Tape Academy

This was a great way to build self-tape “muscle” and develop a global sense of community (with actors from around the world).

Before taking this self-tape course, I was an absolute amateur! There are many key elements to consider when doing a self-tape that I never thought about before. This course is highly interactive with awesome and helpful classmates too, which makes it even better because we all help each other out along the way. Not to mention the coach is right there with you the whole time. My videos went from amateur to professional looking in only 7 days! I would absolutely recommend this course to a friend, it’s 100% worth it.

A great way of learning

A great way of learning and getting feedback from others to improve a great exciting course to do, every day a new task

Teen Academy – I have absolutely loved doing this course.

I have absolutely loved doing this course.  It is my second course I have completed with Sarah.  She is simply the best.  Her instructions are clear, precise and easy to understand.  Her feedback is very constructive and delivered in a warm and nurturing manner.  I can highly recommend any of Sarah’s courses to all aspiring  actors

Really helpful course!

Really helpful course! The group aspect is great as you gather different opinions and ideas and it makes you think about other ways of perceiving a script which helps you broaden your acting possibilities. Very much recommend 🙂

In just seven days, I learned how to do the self-tape properly,

I joined the 7-Day Self-Tape Course because I wanted to learn how to do my audition tape in the future.

In just seven days, I learned how to do the self-tape properly, use the right equipment for lighting and audio. I get to see the other people’s self-tapes when we were given a script to execute.

I enjoyed learning to memorise the lines and play around with some acting.

Thanks to Sarah and everyone, especially my agent BGT Actors, Models and Talent <3
