Hi,
I'm Timothy
As a director, casting director and teacher, I have worked with hundreds of actors, elevating and capturing performances through cinematically produced Showreels, workshops and on set.
Proudly, many of these actors have gone on to secure top tier agents and jobs in productions for Apple TV, Netflix, the CW network, Amazon Studios, Disney and Marvel, not to mention countless commercials, feature films and theatre productions.
​​
It is my goal to inspire. To provide actors with the tools for a successful career, develop deep foundations of character and performance, and truly master performance and the craft of film-making from the point of view of an actor.
I create spaces so actors can build resilience, integrity and a powerful voice.
​
I recently cast and produced feature film (Body Blow) for JJ Splice Films, and am currently in development on my next feature, Rat-A-Tat-Tat.
Director, Producer and Actor with 15 Years of Industry Experience.
