Weekly self-tape practice run like a real casting call — building your technique, your discipline, and a reel of scenes on your own YouTube channel.
Apply to join →On Monday morning a duologue lands in your inbox. You can play either character — gender and age don't matter, and you're free to adapt the script to suit you.
Rehearse during the week, record your take, and upload it to your own YouTube channel — private, unlisted or public, whichever you prefer.
Send your link before the deadline — it's kept firm so the practice feels like a real casting call. If you need more time, ask early and you can have until Sunday at midnight.
The next Monday you get everyone's tapes in one collection, your streak updated, and a new scene to start the week.
“I'd be more frightened by not using whatever abilities I'd been given. I'd be more frightened by procrastination and laziness.”

Ciarán picks every scene, collects every tape and keeps every streak by hand. It started as a way to keep working between jobs — 170 weeks later, it hasn't missed a Monday.
Actors at any stage who want a regular self-tape practice — in training, between jobs, or building a first reel.
A phone or camera, a reader if the scene calls for one, and a YouTube channel. That's it.
You decide. Tapes stay on your channel — private, unlisted or public. If you'd rather your tape stayed out of the weekly collection, it does, and your streak still counts.
Your streak resets, your total stands, and Monday brings a new scene. Ask early and you can have until Sunday midnight.
