A 6 WEEK ONLINE SERIES WITH PERSONAL FEEDBACK BY CD GREG APPS.
Who is this for?
Extra roles that barely get noticed
Predictable characters that don’t stretch your craft
Forever in the background instead of the foreground
If that sounds familiar, it’s time to re-invent your identity in the eyes of Casting Directors.
Because if you’re serious about making acting your career — not just an occasional gig or side income — then this course is your chance to break free of typecasting and open the door to the life-changing opportunities you’ve been waiting for.
✨ Imagine this: You’re finally called in for roles that challenge you, excite you, and showcase your full potential. No more being overlooked. No more stuck in the same lane. Instead, you’re creating the kind of career that lasts — with performances that decision-makers can’t ignore.
Tagline
What do you get
Over 15 lessons and 5 hours of content, you’ll be challenged to do more than just read lines off a page. You’ll learn how to create characters that are truly compelling — the kind that Casting Directors can’t ignore.
Through the eyes of veteran Casting Director Greg Apps (with over 70 films cast), you’ll discover:
- 🎭 How to break free from flat, forgettable performances
- 🎬 What Casting Directors really look for when skimming through 50+ tapes for the same role
- 📖 How to work with real pages and real-life examples to build characters that leap off the screen
- 🎥 The exact process for creating a self-tape that tells a story, not just recites dialogue
By the end of the course, you won’t just have knowledge — you’ll have a knockout demo reel, packed with characters that create resonance and stick in the mind of every Casting Director who watches.
