Freya's notes were the first coaching that actually landed for me.

Coaching for adult actors →What casting in Victoria looks like
Victoria's film and television industry is anchored at Docklands Studios Melbourne and supported by VicScreen. The state carries a stronger independent film and theatre ecosystem than NSW, which shapes the kind of work Victorian actors typically audition for.
Coaching for young Victoria actors
We coach performers aged 7 to 17 in one-to-one sessions. A parent or guardian is always in the building, and in the room or an adjacent room depending on the child's age and preference. Session material is agreed with the parent in advance.
All coaches working with Victoria minors hold a current Working with Children Check, issued by the Victorian Department of Justice and Community Safety. Documentation is sighted by us before the first session with a minor, and by you on request.
Coaching for Victoria-based adult actors
For adult actors at every stage: pre-representation, signed but underworked, mid-career, and working actors preparing for specific high-stakes auditions. If you have a callback next Friday, we work the callback. If you are preparing a self-tape in 24 hours, we work the self-tape.
Material reflects the casting pipeline in Victoria. Accent work is available when the role demands it.

My son's school drama teacher could not prepare him for a screen audition. Freya did.
The self-tape setup advice alone was worth the session.
Victoria questions
-
Do you coach Melbourne-based students remotely?
Yes. Most Victorian students work with us remotely. The craft work is the same either way, and the schedule flexibility of remote coaching suits most students and families.
-
What Working with Children Check applies in Victoria?
The Victorian Working with Children Check, administered by the Department of Justice and Community Safety. Documentation is current and sighted before the first session with a minor.
-
Is there a difference in material between Melbourne and Sydney coaching?
Yes. Material is chosen to reflect the market the student is auditioning in. Melbourne has a stronger independent film and stage scene, so scene choice weights accordingly.
