Jeffrey Stubblefield is a director, guest teaching artist and private acting + audition coach with over 15 years experience working with actors, many of whom have found considerable success in film, television and theatre.
As a professional actor with more than twenty years experience, Jeffrey brings first-hand knowledge of the challenges of acting as well as the realities of being an actor for hire.
As an expert in the Meisner Technique, Jeffrey works with actors to:
- Not "act" but to live truthfully in the moment
- Get the attention off of "self" and on the other actor or reader (no matter how bad they are)
- Get in touch with your true impulses; to work instinctively rather than intellectually in order to create spontaneouty
- Strengthen listening and concentration
- Learn to trust yourself, get in touch with your emotions, and fully bring yourself to any role you play or audition for
- Manage your nerves
Jeffrey is highly competent in all aspects of teaching and coaching at every level—from beginner to professional—for theatre, television, and film.
“Jeffrey has mentored and coached several of our clients with outstanding results. His calm ability to relay vital feedback to the performer without robbing them of their own unique voice, is the key to his success. The overwhelming positive response, both from the casting community and the actors he trains is evident.”
