Attn: Westsiders! I was Googling self-tape services on the…read morewest side after my go-to spot sadly closed down, and I'm so glad I found Stella Self Tape Studios they have a location in Venice. I had a quick commercial audition to knock out, so I decided to give them a try -- and they absolutely delivered. First off, the location is perfect -- easy street parking and even parking in the back. The space itself is beautiful, welcoming, and has such great energy. Demi, ran my session and she's fantastic -- friendly, incredibly helpful, and gives thoughtful redirects that make you feel confident. She even had blotting papers on hand to cut down any shine! I loved that you can watch playback on a monitor, and the whole process -- from slate to full-body turn to my two takes for casting -- felt smooth, professional, and fun! Demi is also a master at editing. My audition was in my inbox before I even walked out the door! I'm thrilled to have found such a professional, high-quality self-tape service right here on the Westside. This is my new go-to!

Visually, I was so pleased as well, with the takes turning out well lit, flattering and with a clean back drop. We ran my scenes many times as he was incredibly generous with coaching. I did my first session in the evening and he even went as far as to allow me to come back the morning afterward when I wanted to make a few minor tweaks to my work. By the time I sent in my tapes, I felt so peacefully proud of the work I did and the quality of the shots. I will most definitely be calling Self Tape Studio again and am recommending to all my fellow actors.

The audition required little…read morespeech but heavy emotion: immense fear, crying, etc. Although I had prepared, my performance was a lot stronger due to her direction and suggestions. Carolyn is a successful working actress herself, and knows what works and what doesn't work for auditions. She is also one of the most warm and kind hearted people, and makes sure you feel comfortable such that you can give your best performance. We ended up doing several tapes until I was happy with the performance. I highly recommend working with her.

She captures those perfect moments that a non-experienced videographer typically misses. Bonnie's talent doesn't stop at videotaping. Her expertise and creative ability to produce a finished project are jaw-dropping. I have seen some of her raw footage and what she can create from it, and it's a talent many do not have. Her superpower when filling business videos is her ability to make the person being filmed comfortable. She helps them create a video that connects to their audience instead of one that looks "canned" or over-rehearsed. I refer all of my clients who need videos to Bonnie and encourage you to do the same.

My coordinator suggested their Studio as a PPM location, and while it didnt work out on this one, I'm thrilled to know their space exists for the next one.
