We have some great recommendations IF you need them. Otherwise, you probably already have everything you need. I’ll show you how to elevate your current system to get the best looking tape possible.

FOR SURE.
And, doesn’t it suck when you give a beautiful performance but your lighting is kinda… meh? Or you really brought the character to life but you your dog/neighbor/roomie can be heard in the background? Or what about when you finally get that guest star audition but your hair looks like a blob and you’re blending into the background?
And if you’re reading this, it probably means you want a fruitful acting career. So if you’re working toward top of show, series reg, the star of the next Bway tour, whatever - don’t you want to send in auditions that show you’re a professional?
So yes, acting is the most important thing. And it’s even better when the quality of your tapes reflect the quality of your acting.
