These courses are the difference between wishing you were getting booked more and realizing why you weren’t. -Janis, Self Tape student

"I would highly recommend Scott Takeda’s self-tape course. I have learned a tremendous amount in such a short time that I can take with me to strengthen my craft. Scott’s director’s perspective broadens my actor’s point of view from in front of the camera to behind (which is a huge advantage...being able to see the image as a whole). The technical side is just as important as the performance. Together they make magic." Dominique Taylor

“Takeda’s knowledge of the business is extensive and at times, mind-blowing! This class is a MUST-TAKE for anyone who wants to play ball in the new post-pandemic auditioning reality” - Sarah Minnich, SAG-AFTRA
