"Jake O'Flaherty's commercial class is worth the time and it's such a great price! He helps you break down the process so you can discover your 'money shot' for the camera. One of the best classes I have ever taken!"
Jason Perkins
"Working with Jake O’Flaherty was a truly epic experience for my acting! he had me prepped and ready for an audition overnight with all the professionalism and patience needed until I got where I felt comfortable and ready to book! Thanks so much!!"
Paul Lauden
"Jake has been instrumental in my career. His coaching and 20 years in the entertainment industry have guided me in such a positive direction. With his insight, I've signed with a top commercial agent, manager, joined a prestigious theater company and signed on as a writer/performer for a new talk show. I'm very thankful and appreciative to be working with with Jake."
Yesenia Palma
"Jake O' Flaherty coached me for over 3 years and has helped me book a pilot for a TV show, plays & my acceptance into a performing arts school. His coaching has made me stronger and more creative. Jake's tips and suggestions gave me a more in-depth analysis of character work and actions. He is the BEST :)"
What's My Approach?
Coaching for me is finding the essence of the character thru the written dialogue, physical actions & tone of voice. Making simple, specific choices that make sense yet are unique, is the secret to creating memorable characters that still seem true to life. Asking yourself : who, what, where, when & why is the first step. From there finding interesting choices in the delivery is what books you the job!
