8-Week Acting Showreel Course – 4K Filming & Coaching in London
Your showreel should do one thing: get you work. Too many actors spend hundreds on glossy, action-style reels that feel exciting for a day—but don’t match their casting or get them seen by agents.
This course fixes that. We focus on preparation, precision, and performance. Every scene is coached by Fay Beck, one of London’s leading screen acting coaches, to ensure you are fully prepared before stepping on set.
