+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

This 4 week course covers the nuts and bolts of screen-acting auditions. Each week Simon will send you a different genre scene to prepare testing your versatility as an actor. Sides will be sent out for you to prepare 4/5 days prior to the session. The classes will be filmed on broadcast quality equipment and sent to you after each session, with the aim of giving you a portfolio of top quality tapes for your professional development. Below is week by week breakdown of how the course will play out...!

WEEK 1 Film Scenes. This week will focus on scenes from feature films.

WEEK 2 TV scenes. This week will focus on scenes from TV shows.

WEEK 3 Day players This week focuses on the day player roles. Whether this is a one line role, or a one scene role, how best to approach them and give your best.

WEEK 4 Scenes specific to you. Chosen by Simon. This week Simon will choose a scene specific to you to prepare.

Your scenes will be recorded with broadcast quality equipment. Upon request, you have the option to receive your footage after the session for no extra cost!

**+ BIO **

Simon works with Olivia Scott-Webb and Dan Hubbard.

Credits include, The Pope's Exorcist, directed by Julius Avery & starring Russell Crowe; announced but yet to be released feature films, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, directed by Guy Ritchie; Verona, a new original musical based on Romeo & Juliet directed by Timothy Scott Bogart; Canary Black, directed by Pierre Morel, the director of 'Taken' & starring Kate Beckinsale; Midas Man, a biopic of Brian Epstein, the man who discovered The Beatles, directed by Joe Stephenson; Arcadian, directed by Benjamin Brewer & starring Nicolas Cage & Magpie, directed by Sam Yates & starring Daisy Ridley - all due for release in 2024.

He plugged away as an actor for 10 years, before deciding to sidestep into the world of casting, and is now lucky enough to have seen things from both perspectives and thoroughly enjoys offering as many nuggets of new found wisdom as he can!

Simon has just finished working on series 2 of BBC's THE GOLD, and is currently working on a new feature film for Netflix.
