DOUG WARHIT ONLINE ACTING CLASSES AND AUDITION TECHNIQUE

"I love working with Doug. My work has grown immensely in the past year that I have been working with him. I also love that he has online classes because they replicate the self-tape process. If you have an audition you can work on it and tape it in class. Plus you can take his classes from anywhere in the world!"

"Doug Warhit is more than a great acting instructor, he is an exceptional human being who truly cares about the people he coaches! As one of his students who has participated in his classes at various levels since 2017, I can attest that his direct and intuitive approach combined with sense of humor, experience and knowledge creates a highly effective creative environment for actors of any and all different ages and types. Wether you are a seasoned actor or just getting started he uses his experiences as a life coach, psychotherapist, actor, and director to provide sound guidance in helping you understand yourself better through the work while giving you the freedom to express, discover, and empower yourself as an actor! The accountability, support, and affordability that his classes provide are invaluable to any actor navigating their way through their creative journeys. Consistency is key and Doug sets the tone by leading by example and constantly having his finger on the pulse of the industry. The dynamic of the class functions in a truly safe and collaborative way on all fronts, just as you will experience with directors and other actors when you are working. Everyone learns from each other. In addition, the online format mirrors the audition process and trains you to optimize your approach. And working on camera with repetition and a variety of other actors with challenging scenes that Doug provides, translates to working on set when it comes time to perform there. On top of that, you receive a copy of your work each week that he promptly emails to you after class! Industry guests are an added bonus to an already worthy process. Every four weeks an industry guest joins the class giving everyone an opportunity to perform in front of them as if it were a call back audition, then ask questions and have them answered at the end. This is priceless, as it helps you gage where you are in your journey and gain extremely valuable insight from friendly working professionals that Doug hand picks! Overall, all of these things and more make Doug and his class truly one of a kind! And his commitment to the craft and his students is unmatched as he consistently gives you the techniques and tools that you can use to gain confidence and bring out the best in yourself! And again, no matter what phase of your life as an actor you're in, he is a master at helping you find your way at just the right pace you need to succeed. Do yourself a favor and give it a try! His books are another valuable resource that have helped me along the way, they include: Book the Job: 143 Things Actors Need to Know to Make It Happen, The Actor's Audition Checklist, and Warhit's Guidebook For The Actor."

"Seriously meeting Doug and taking his classes is one of best things that happened in my life! I can't even express how much I appreciate Doug Warhit. He's a legendary coach and actor, he genuinely cares about everyone he works with, and he knows how to get the best out of people. His precision is so amazing because there will be tons of things from little to big that we don't notice we do on camera but Doug helps bring awareness to it and correct it. His techniques are amazing and help a person actually give a realistic performance and express legitimate emotions when acting rather than trying hard to fake a certain emotion. So many thanks to Doug Warhit!"

"It is pretty simple--I find myself doing my best acting work when I am consistently attending Doug's class. I studied with Doug for a few years when I first moved to Los Angeles. During this time I felt more confident in scenes and auditions and knew I was doing industry-worthy work. I have recently come crawling back for more, after taking time off for comedy school, and couldn't be happier. Doug is intelligent and quirky, he understands actors, and most importantly his students as people. Doug's class is a safe space to explore. He's not afraid to tell you when it looks like you are acting or you're not quite in it. He's also not afraid to tell you when you are right on. The honest feedback he provides is so key to growth. In this class you'll explore the deeper thoughts of the character, play with improvising scenes, work your scene on camera and learn to take quick redirects, just like on set. And an industry guest watches your work at the end of each month! Yay for built in networking."

"Doug is a great teacher. He is direct, thoughtful, and challenges you to deliver your best work. His passion for his students and the work is palpable every night in class. I look forward to class every week. Doug has a great sense of humor and it helps set the tone for the class. The energy is great and the atmosphere is supportive and friendly. Personally, my bookings have increased after a couple months taking Doug's on camera class. He helps you create a clear focus and prepares you with great exercises to deliver your best work. Do yourself a favor and audit his class- you won't regret it."
