"Not the first time I am working with Will and definitely not the last time! He knows how to make us feel comfortable, he is incredibly professional, not to mention patient and dedicated. I had an issue with my partner the day before shooting my showreel and he suggested another date to shoot very soon. He managed to find me a new partner, he was so reassuring and found a solution to all the problems. On the shooting day, we had a lot of fun and I felt so relaxed that I could give the best in my performance. I am so pleased with the final result, I wouldn't recommend him enough, thank you!"

"Will is my go-to guy for self-tapes. He's brilliant at helping with redirection, discussing the script, a good reader, and I've learnt a great deal working with him. The tapes produced are of great audio and visual quality, with quick turnaround. Efficient with communication, very reasonable pricing, and just a lovely person to work with. Highly recommend and always look forward to a session with him!"

"I've been looking at show reel companies for a while, and I can honestly say that Will is the BEST! I was so nervous on the day and felt my performance was a bit off, so we did multiple takes until he saw that I was happy with it, even though it took longer than usual. He was so patient and dedicated. We started filming in the sun and then it started raining so he waited patiently, for hours, till the rain stopped and edited it beautifully! He genuinely cares that you are satisfied with your show reel. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you Will! :)"

"I don't think I can put into words how brilliant Self-tape is, run by Will Austin with the help of the very efficient Sarah. Working with Will really is an incredible experience, he knows what he's doing, he works with you in a collaborative way making sure you get what you want out of your tapes but at the same time he's willing to bring some of his own ideas onto the table which are always very insightful and extremely useful. As an actor he is present and playful, he makes you forget the camera is there and allows you to really get as much as you can out of the scenes you bring to him. He is very professional and respectful, but at the same time he is friendly and open. With all the Self Tape services out their (and I've worked with many of them), I can say with absolute conviction, that Self-Tape is one of the best. I feel very lucky to be able to work with them and I feel even more fortunate to call Will Austin a good friend and a fellow collaborator. If you need a self tape or showreel done, Self-Tape is THE place to go."

"Absolutely delighted with my showreel piece filmed recently with Will. The shooting process was, as always, hugely collaborative and seamless with all concerned being on the same page. Will not only films the piece in the most creative and imaginative way, but his direction is second to none. I had pretty strong ideas about my character and her journey to this point and Will enabled me to show the audience her inner life and truth. Looking forward to the next one! Susannah May"
