The Actor’s Saga: Seen on Screen

Professional self tape training for actors who want to compete internationally from Dubai.

Most actors lose the job before the performance even starts.

Not because of their acting.
Because they don’t understand how self tapes are actually read, filtered, and judged.

Seen on Screen is a focused, professional program designed to train actors to deliver grounded, truthful, bookable performances under real casting conditions.

This is not a filming workshop.
This is industry prepartion.

  • "Creative, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what he does."

    E. Saville - Actress

  • Honestly, I wouldn’t take anything away from the workshop. Every part of it felt valuable, and the structure allowed for both exploration and growth. If anything, I’d always welcome more time to dive even deeper into the work!

    I. Possetto - Actor

  • "There's a certain standard of actor I see coming from Rich's training. They hold a type of confidence in their performance I don't see in many others. It makes my job much easier.

WHAT I EXPECT FROM ACTORS

I am direct.
I give specific feedback.
I expect preparation.

I don’t work with ego, excuses, or performance for approval.

I work with actors who are willing to look honestly at their work and take responsibility for it.

I will support and nurture your craft. I expect you to do the same.

WHO I WORK WITH

  • Actors committed to professional level craft

  • Actors transitioning from theatre, modeling, or presenting into screen work

  • International actors based in the UAE

  • Actors preparing for high level self tape and casting demands

I do not work with everyone.
That is intentional.

FINAL WORD

I am here to train actors who are willing to do the work.

If you are serious about your craft, your career, and the level you are playing at, then apply today and control the trajectory of your future.
