  • My Friend Jeanne Hartman, a stellar actors' "detective" and coach

    Thursday, May 29, 2008 7:35AM / Members only

    Hi Everyone!

    It was quite a thrill to read Jeanne Hartman's blog about me. As she says, we've known each other a very long time and I have been proud to be counted among her friends, as she guided so many actors in Hollywood with her insightful coaching! I think the first time I got to know her was at a mutual friend's party while I was still acting and I was blown away by her knowledge of the craft. We talked for hours!

    Since then I have been present, videotaping many of her acting clients, and watched her masterful "detecting" work as she draws wonderful performances from actors, often by merely asking questions. She is in constant demand to coach actors as they head out to their auditions, which as you all know, are often more challenging than performances themselves.

    At one point, I had the sudden need to revive my singing voice and asked for her help. Not only was I almost immediately "acting" the song but within just a few short sessions she had extended my range by at least an octave and probably more.

    As a graduate of Juilliard, she truly knows her stuff and is a wonderful performer in her own right. Do check out her one-minute acting videos. It's amazing what nuggets someone with her talent, knowledge, and experience can impart in just one minute!

    Thank you, Jeanne, being such a wonderful guide, as well as, "detective" and, most recently, for introducing me to Alive Not Dead.

    Jason Tobin and Jeanne Hartman brought me to the Alive not Dead site and I am happy to say that I qualify!

    I'm an actor who earns his living as an editor in Los Angeles and am an Apple Certified Final Cut Pro Trainer and Avid Instructor. I specialize in making reels for professionals, (how I met Jason).

    Thanks for this opportunity, It's great to be here!
