Here's your chance to work with this bi-coastal independent filmmaker, writer and producer.
Tom's first feature Fairhaven starred Chris Messina (Mindy Project, Sharp Objects) and Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story) and was a critic's pick in the New York Times. Tom's second feature Manhattan Romance starred Katherine Waterston (Fantastic Beasts, Inherent Vice), Gabby Hoffmann (Transparent, C'mon C'mon) and Caitlin Fitzgerald (Succession, Masters Of Sex) and streamed on Netflix worldwide. Tom's TV series OM City was a Critic's TV pick in the New York Times.
He is currently working on several new projects that have yet to been cast, including an independent feature with his longtime friend and collaborator actor Chris Messina that is set to shoot in Long Island.
For the intensive, you'll start off with a Q&A, and then Tom will begin working with you with a reader, on-camera, in a group format. Be prepared for feedback and adjustments as Tom will coach and critique your work, tweak your material and share invaluable information.
Tom will select sides based on your HS/resume submission which you will be emailed and prepare in advance.
Along with being an actor/filmmaker, Tom is also a teacher and acting coach and gives honest, practical feedback in a supportive way. He keeps extensive casting files not only for his many upcoming projects but he has called in many of the actors he has met in his intensives to help develop new work.
