HELLO! I’M KEN LAZER, CSA

Serious actors ask me all the time “What can I do to take my acting career to the next level? I’m going to auditions, working hard, and I’m not getting the results I want to get. What can I do to make myself stand out and book more roles?” I’m a casting director in the CSA with nearly 30 years experience in the casting industry. I’ve booked thousands of projects and I know exactly what it takes to help you stand out from your competition and book more jobs. * I’ve been teaching actors since 1995 and I love helping actors who are serious about taking their careers to the next level. When I am casting roles for films, TV, and national commercials, I can see anywhere between 30 to 40 actors for the same role. Many of the actors in the audition look alike, sound alike— and 95% of them are all making the same mistakes and never get a callback or book. I would love to meet you in  class (via Zoom) and share these secrets, tips, and tricks that I’ve gathered over the past thirty years which help actors advance their careers.

I’ll see you soon!

* Individuals results will vary.

This commercial class is a must take for actors. The techniques, the tricks, and the knowledge I gained from this class were absolutely invaluable. I now go to commercials so much more prepared. I walk in with confidence because I know what works and what doesn't. Most importantly, I know I gave a GREAT audition because I booked the room.
