“Peter has truly taught me the art of ‘subtlety on camera’ when auditioning for a role. He utilises his techniques and exercises so wonderfully in the moment, that before I knew it I was no longer “acting” or “pushing”, I was simply was telling the truth. He has enabled me to learn what is important when auditioning for film and TV and what to simply throw away. Not only is Peter an amazing teacher, he is also a real ally in championing his students all the way to reaching their goals. I simply couldn’t have gotten where I am today without his help and guidance.”
Emily Weir - Actress, Home and Away“It’s rare to find a person so dedicated to extracting the best out of a performance or the artist. I had the pleasure of working with Peter in two self-tests, both very last minute and time stressed. Through workshopping and direction we explored together to come up with two tests that I walked away proud of; which to me is the aim of the game. Knowing you’ve put your best foot forward and your hat in the ring for a part is the beginning and the end of our work sometimes. If you can say you’ve done that, you’ve done your work.Oh, and I got the job. Maybe both…”
Ryan Corr, Actor - House Of The Dragon, Packed To The Rafters.“Peter Rasmussen brings his years as a casting director and actor to his coaching with an eclectic mix of wisdom, humor and insight. He is a gentle yet honest coach with great compassion. I highly recommend the professional as well as the beginner to work with this man!”
Laura Gardner, Actress“Peter I just wanted to thank you for your incredibly useful advice during class AND that script analysis workshop. I've gotten callbacks for the last three auditions and ONE BOOKING since attending your workshop and I don't think that's a coincidence. I’m over the moon! Applying the Rasmussen technique is certainly to blame! ”
Matt Domingo“I was looking for a weekly, ongoing class where I could learn new techniques and consistently improve over time. I learnt that patience, persistence, and hard work does pay off. He would elucidate feedback in a way that enabled me to give a more authentic performance. Transference is my favourite technique Peter used, very effective for me personally. He taught me that you can get better with time and practice, and just because you don’t start off with Oscar-worthy performances, it doesn’t mean you can’t get there. Peter is one of the most patient acting coaches you will come across. He genuinely cares about his students’ learning which is evident through the supportive environment he fosters in the classroom. @theoneshu”
Shuang Hu, Actress and Influencer“A fabulous day was had by all! Peter shared his valuable experience with total dedication, wit and a bit of craziness in the mix. If you want to fast forward your skills in the acting world, this is a must do class. A full day of in depth script analysis takes acting to another level. I’ll certainly be taking more classes with Peter. 😊”
Virginia McEntee“Peter has the innate ability to bring the best qualities out in his Actors. Being in his audition room has been a very rewarding, encouraging and an exciting environment. Love working with you Pete!”
Azaleia Bradley“I have to say I found Peter to have amazing workshops and advice. I attended his memorisation and line learning workshop which really made me rethink how I can effectively approach learning my lines. I also met with Peter one on one for a private career consultation. Peter provided me with the advice I needed to try and take my career to the next level. Thank you Peter. You have opened my eyes to what is really possible for me as I navigate my acting career.”
Belinda Aitken“I highly recommend Peter Rasmussen if you are looking for an acting class with a knowledgeable, resource-generous, intuitive instructor and an eye opening, week-by-week in-person and online structure that is easy to engage with, even if you have external commitments. Peter is fantastic at meeting you at your level and challenging you further. I'm glad to have connected with him and look forward to pushing the creative limits further next term.”
Pyper Herlihy“Peter is one of the kindest and generous people I know and is a great teacher and audition coach. He really does his best to make you feel comfortable in the room and to help you find your best take. He is fun and has years of experience in casting and acting.”
