The Audition Studio

Brentwood 90049

After wrapping Cowboys & Aliens, Michael started a successful business, The Audition Studio, an actor services business located in Brentwood CA that specialized in audition tapes, demo reels, voiceovers, acting classes & workshops. The Audition Studio became widely known as the best actor services business in Los Angeles. Michael closed this business after 2 years to pursue the opportunity with Popsugar.Old Yelp Review"I recently was asked to send in a taped audition for an agent. Having neither equipment or any technical knowledge put self-taping out of the picture so I turned to The Audition Studio to help me out. I am so glad I did! The space is beautiful, welcoming and very professional. I had the pleasure of working with Michael who immediately put me at ease and helped draw out the best audition possible. The production value of my video is top-notch and the member page made meeting the rest of the requirements of the submission a breeze I felt that I paid a very fair price for the value that I received. I will definitely be using them again for self-submissions and I look forward to testing out the rest of their services as well."
