Private Zoom: 60 Minute
Acting: Comedy or Drama
Our priority when it comes to auditions is to ensure that you book the room, if not the job. There are countless reasons why you might not get a job that are entirely out of your control. Concern yourself only with what you CAN control. Make sure that you pop! Remember, an audition is never about the role, it is about making the casting directors, producers and directors fans so that they’ll remember you and cast you in a future project that you’re perfect for.
Our clients have booked literally hundreds of roles over the years based on this exact premise.
About John Rosenfeld
JOHN ROSENFELD has been one of the top acting teachers in Los Angeles for many years. He works with a range of actors, from Academy Award-winners like Mahershala Ali and Jared Leto, comedy geniuses like Randall Park, dramatic series leads like Alycia Debnam-Carey and Paige Spara, blockbuster stars like Paula Patton, stand-ups like Eric Andre and Adam, and up-and-coming actors new to Los Angeles. He also helped a young Margot Robbie get her start here, and he is looking forward to partnering with you to help Australians find their footing in LA.
John understands the transition to acting in Los Angeles comes with a steep learning curve. He received his MFA in Acting from UNC Chapel Hill, where he first began teaching. When he made the move to LA, however, he realized how much he didn’t learn in grad school that was necessary to survive and thrive here. Not only is there a specific acting aesthetic in LA, but the expectations of actors are highly elevated: they must be able to fully understand any text and genre, absorb notes quickly, bring a specific version of the story, all while being present, truthful, and personal.
Through trial and error, John built his own process and has dedicated his studio to helping actors find theirs. He believes in all methodologies but does not have an allegiance to any specific one. With JRS, he created a place where the method is tailored to the actor, not the other way around.
John’s approach is holistic. His classes not only teach you how to break down a script, think as your character, adjust quickly while making strong choices, and find the process that works best for you, but also explore your individuality as an actor. You’ll learn how you are perceived, how to play into or against type, how to access new points of view quickly, and how to find choices that pop on you specifically. By working on currently casting projects to develop a comprehension of all genres and text, John makes sure you are prepared for the challenges of acting in Los Angeles.In an industry that requires you to do so many things simultaneously, John Rosenfeld Studios gives you the tools to work as effectively and efficiently as possible, with the goal of cultivating the constitution of a happy working actor.
