Spend a focused four‑hour intensive in the room with a working casting director. This workshop is built around what decides most auditions: the choices you make once you're on the floor, and how you take direction in the moment.

Led by Natalie Wall of Barrett Casting, the session is live audition and scene work from the ground up. You'll see what casting directors actually look for, then put it straight into practice with feedback and direction on camera.

The Approach

My approach is based on a genuine respect for actors and an appreciation of what they need to do their best work. I enjoy creative conversations, digging deep to uncover exciting new talent, and coming up with innovative ways to solve complex casting challenges. Natalie Wall

Who Is This Workshop For?

This workshop is designed for actors with some level of training or on‑set experience who are ready to deepen their work alongside a professional casting director. It is not a beginner course. If you're newer to screen acting, our 8‑Week Foundations Intensive is the better place to start.

The workshop is best suited to actors who want honest feedback on their work, a clearer audition technique, and the chance to do focused scene work with real direction. It's about deepening the work itself, not performing for approval. The presence of a casting director is not a guarantee or promise of employment.

This Workshop Is Sold Out

The day is intentionally kept small to ensure every actor gets real time on the floor working scenes with Natalie, with meaningful feedback and direction. All places for this one have been filled.
