DISCOVER the FORMULA
TO BOOK MORE ACTING WORK
create bookable self tapes and increase income
"Hi Nick,
quick note - keep it up - it works, I'll explain.
January in a time of little work and lacking confidence I went through the T.A.M. (Total Audition Magician) training and followed the exercises .
Now September, I began leafing through my diary and could hardly believe it. It read....
I see myself checking messages from my new London agent, a pile of scripts sides and call sheets in my bag, e-mail from wardrobe on my next TV show looking for sizes, racing back to make a studio appt in time for my VO, all after having wrapped on another TV show.
Well, currently I am in London working with James Nesbitt on Lucky Man for SKY Atlantic, I have an offer from a good agency on Warwick St, I am needed for the new campaign of radio ads for Nissan - my bag is stuffed with call sheets, sides and highlighted scripts. So thanks Nick,
Lochlann
Update - Am now shooting "Genius" directed by Ron Howard in Prague
...the formula is next
What if you had an easy-to-follow plan that gave you the clarity AND the feeling of confidence to book more work?
What if it was "easy"?
Are you struggling to book work?
I’m going to let you in on a little secret. "Booking work" isn’t that hard. It isn’t complicated, and it doesn’t have to take a lot of stress or cost money.
Yet for some reason, most of us feel stuck. Frustrated. Broke and overwhelmed and out of work.
“They” say we’re supposed to spend our time and money on headshots, showreels and expensive casting workshops that lead nowhere… AND now this guy (yes, me!) is saying booking work can be easy?!
Look, if we spend all day pushing and stressing to market ourselves, when do we get to enjoy doing what we love? Acting?!!
Does it really have to be difficult? I say no.
answers below
When you balance these 3 ingredients, which you can learn to do easily, you will book more acting work.
Who is this guy...?My name is Nick Dunning
I’ve not only been coaching actors for the past 7 years, but I’ve been acting on Film, TV and on stage for even longer. My booking formula has been working like clockwork for me and my students.
Let’s take a look at each of the elements...
Consistency
Have you ever been or seen the Grand Canyon? It’s hard to understand that WATER can have such an effect on hard rock. Until you "fully get" Consistency. It wasn’t just water that shaped the Grand Canyon, it was that water flowed on a consistent basis. When you create a combined system of consistent targetted actions as an actor, you literally become unstoppable. You become visible. You become… everywhere!
Clarity
When you have nothing on your mind other than being in the absolute present moment, you are completely free to create anything you choose.
The surge of energy you experience when fully clean and clear is mind-blowingly astonishing.
It's also do-able and repeatable.
Goals start to happen. Faster and faster. Consistently.
The Stretch
I teach Yoga For The Mind.
When your mental comfort zone is stretched... gently... a new level of being bursts out from inside of you.
You move forward more creatively, more productively and with more energy than ever before. It's as f you have finally found your true identity.
Imagine being able to "stretch" at will?
What would you create right now?
"I'm on Day 20 of Nicks 21 Days to success. The results are fast and amazing! I'd let my work slide was feeling jaded little negative burnt out and rusty about myself as an actress. Then I realised I'm not "just" an actress - this was the refresher I needed. Nicks stuff is empowering,lovely and helps shift negative thinking. My film South had its gala Premiere screening in Cineworld on Day 20 this was the culmination of a LOT of other things that also happened along the days! And It gets a nationwide cinema release on the 25th! I can't explain in words how much Nick has changed not only my belief system about myself, my career but my life..."

" I've never felt so confident about going in to a meeting in my life. I got a new agent. It was like every little thing was made for me. I also started with a new writers group. The aim is to create our own You Tube channel showcasing our talent and go "to infinity and beyond" I can't wait for the next coaching session. Kind regards Suzie "

Is Total Audition Magician Really Right For YOU?
That's the RIGHT question to ask, but I'm probably not the guy to answer it... I'm a little biased ;-). I've been a consistently working actor for nearly 40 years, I've never had another job, I've been to thousands of auditions and submitted hundreds of self tapes and the only thing I love more than acting... is teaching others how to make a good living from it.
After the very first major movie I got Alexander directed by Oliver stone starring Colin Farrell and Angelina Jolie, I asked the director "why did i get the job?"
His response: Mindset
