From their website: “It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or an experienced stage actor; film and TV acting can be a baffling and sometimes terrifying experience. How to develop the inner emotional life of a character, how to react — not perform, how to feel relaxed, comfortable and focused when the director says ‘action’ is the key to a creative and natural on-camera performance.”

From her website: “As the audition process evolved and transitioned to Virtual Auditions and Self-Tapes, Karen came to realize that One-on-One Coaching gives her the ability to focus on each actor’s individual needs in a way that classes never could. Bringing an actor's experiences and truth to the role is crucial in a field that is incredibly competitive.
Most actors worry too much about what they think the casting director wants, losing their natural creativity and the freedom to use their unique authenticity in the audition. Casting directors, producers and directors are looking for actors who can insert themselves into the character.
Having a coach who has auditioned actors for over twenty years and has worked with numerous directors, gives Karen’s clients an insiders' advantage on the casting process, and the edge they need to take their career to the next level.”
