Acting Class for Television, Film and Theatre in San Diego, CA

Jeffrey Meek StudioWhat is Jeffrey Meek Studio? A scene-study workshop where committed and passionate actors come together to develop and hone their craft in a focused, supportive environment. The Jeffrey Meek Studio acting technique is based on many powerful and useful traditions i.e., Stanislavski, Uta Hagen, Sanford Meisner, Lee Strasberg and Ivana Chubbuck. Classes are taught by Jeffrey Meek.

Actors are guided and encouraged to approach their work with boldness and freedom. Commitment and imagination are as important, if not more so, than talent. Jeff is determined and prepared to lead you toward your highest goals as an actor. In addition to in-depth character analysis and scene study, students will gain a practical understanding of the entertainment business, including the steps toward finding a good agent/manager and how to create an effective reel. With over thirty years experience as a professional actor, writer and coach, Jeff is dedicated to helping actors of all levels and skills.

Jeff taught me how to ask the right questions when approaching the work; he teaches not only what to do, but how to do it. Whether you want to act in film, television, theatre (including Shakespeare), or even voice work, Jeff is a fantastic resource. Jeff is a kind and genuine human being who will keep your best interests at heart. He wants to push you to your full potential as an actor. Will you become vulnerable? Yes. Will you become authentic? Definitely. Both elements are required for true, real, believable acting, and Jeff will bring them out in you.” – Caleb Kneip

Scott Puckett“At the tender age of 59, I finally said to myself….you’re an actor. Signed up for a class with Jeff with no real ideas of what to expect. And oh….I had no idea of the treasure I would find. Yes, my passion has been opened! Yes my soul can never again be contained….for it now soars! I’ve been under Jeff’s tutelage for approx 9 months, meeting once a week. I am continuously amazed by Jeff’s level of knowledge and mastery of his craft. And something totally unexpected….. The sense of comradery…all of my fellow acting students so support one another, from day one; we have become a family. Thank you, my friend.” – Scott Puckett
