Welcome to the Studio. My name is Dan Warner and I have been a film, television and comm-ercial actor for the past 20 years. I have had a fortunate career including being the face of a Fortune 500 company, a recurring role on several network shows, and starring in award winning films including one that was featured at the Cannes Film Festival. Over the course of my career, I encountered hundreds of industry professionals and tested dozens of techniques. I have had many successes, made many mistakes, and learned from both to acquire mastery of my craft. My success was half luck and half strategy. The luck I can’t deliver, but the course of action I followed I can share. Of course, there is no universal method to becoming a working actor, but there is an advantage to learning from someone with firsthand experience and you can rest assured you will be following the same tried-and-true formula as myself and other successful working actors. My goal here is to provide you with all the tools necessary for you to
ACE YOUR NEXT AUDITION.

WHY

WHY DO I NEED COACHING?

Traditionally, auditions have been held in person in front of a casting director or session runner in the room to direct you and make adjustments as you go. Zoom auditions and auditions on tape essentially leave actors to make all the creative decisions themselves. While this can be an advantage if you know exactly how to handle any given script, it can also be detrimental to be left to your own devices. In my years of experience, I have found that actors have a tendency to get into their own heads and do too much or too little when they have no guidance. As virtual auditions and auditions on tape have become increasingly popular, the lack of supervision has made approaching scenes more challenging. If you have found yourself wondering how to approach a scene, what emotion your character would be feeling, or how or when to place more or less emphasis, I am here to help.

WHEN

WHEN CAN I SCHEDULE A SESSION?

As a working actor myself, I understand that auditions can present themselves at just about any time of day. The good news for you is that my time is your time. As long as there is an available date and time on the calendar, you are welcome to schedule a coaching session. All sessions will be held via Zoom. You may schedule a session up to two months in advance.
