ActorPlaybook isn't just for the new actor trying to learn the business it's for the seasoned actor who may have settled back for a while and is trying to figure the "new world" out and re-establish that career. Jami Tennille has created an environment with ActorPlaybook that not only provides research on all aspects of building a career but also access to the people that cast the opportunities. This is a community of people with shared goals guided by Jami and her Community of experts that provide insights and hands on experience. I would recommend ActorPlaybook to both the novice and experienced actor who needs an edge, encouragement and the tools to succeed.

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with ActorPlaybook. In addition to the exceptional resources and classes offered, I cannot emphasize enough the invaluable support provided by Jami herself. She is a mentor and guide, always there to lend a helping hand. Her commitment to the success of every actor in the community is evident in her willingness to answer questions and share insights from her own acting career and journey. I would recommend ActorPlaybook to any actor regardless of where you are in your career.

I signed up for Actor Playbook when it was first created. Jami gave me clear and specific tasks that I could complete to move forward! I didn't realize that I actually had all of the materials that I needed to cast a much wider net than I had thought possible. Enter Covid-19! Everything changed and suddenly Zoom became the connection between the actor and the world! Through ActorPlaybook, I found a support system and other actors to "play" with on a regular basis. I now have access to actors, teachers, coaches and casting directors from all over the country! There are classes and workshops happening several times a month, all geared to help you level up in your career. Thank you Jami for helping me realize that I am enough.

Thanks again for all you do.  I already feel, after two months' involvement with Actors Playbook, ten times more prepared and confident, and I know that will only grow as time goes on.  Membership is SO worth the money.  And yes, you can quote me!!

I genuinely believe that joining up with the ActorPlaybook community is one of the best moves I could have ever made for my acting career. I’ve not only met people who understand the highs and lows that come from a career in acting, but I’ve made lifelong friends who I will always root for and am grateful to have in my life. Jami’s passion for providing her community with helpful resources and tools shines through in the events she plans for us. There is always an event to learn from on the horizon, both virtual and in person. From casting director workshops, talent agent seminars, self-tape feedback and community get togethers, the ActorPlaybook is a great resource for actors of all levels.

Quick note to say thank you! Wanted to make sure you know that for those of us who aren't on every call/in every class there is still such a plethora of material to access. Whenever I'm ready for a moment for my career throughout the day it's nice to be able to grab however big a bite I need--whether that's a 15 minute video or an hour. You've got something special here!
