ARTIST ANALYSIS

WITH NATHAN MCLEOD
For those who need honest answers about their abilities and next steps.

LET US GUIDE YOU TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE

For both Acting for Film and Musical Theatre performers alike, the program is meant to directly and honestly help you understand where you are in your artist's journey. Using contrasting pieces, you will perform using the industry standard self-tape style submission, and at the end we will have either a live ZOOM call or in-studio audition/meeting to give you the concrete feedback and next steps you need to be your best.

3 SELF-TAPE FEEDBACK SESSIONS

Actors submit 3 contrasting self-tapes.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Since its inception, Innovative Arts has always offered guidance and mentorship to students looking to grow in their performing careers. Nathan draws on years of industry experience to give you the feedback you need to take the appropriate next steps. You may be looking for an agent, wondering how to get started in the industry or want to know how to make your next audition the best it can be. Our new Artist Analysis package allows us to fully understand what your next steps should be.
Self-tape Feedback Sessions
Guidance and support for first-time students is available. After submission, Nathan will then record himself reviewing the video and provide detailed feedback which can be applied and kept forever. This system has proven to be very successful as it not only allows the student to re watch and retain the notes better, but it allows the guardian to be involved in the process as well.
Getting into the Industry
In addition to the life changing nature of this craft, there are opportunities for professional work which can be quite lucrative. Stepping into the realm of professional acting consists of many factors and we strongly suggest an open dialogue with Nathan or any informed coach to ensure you are guided in a positive, realistic, and healthy way.
