Working With You In Mind

My goal is to help you acheive yours.

“Paul Adams and I first met at a workshop just as I was coming back into acting. Coming back meant I had to evolve into this new world of self-taping and in my quest to understand it all, it was good to have a friend like Paul to play with new ideas about how to set it up, where to buy the necessary props to make it all work.
   
This is when I realised how much Paul loves helping people. He shares his knowledge freely and is very patient when he works no matter the oddest of questions.
   
I’ve also had the pleasure of working with Paul where he’s been my reader. He knows how to sum up a character well, thereby being very supportive which encourages me to do my best.
    Thanks Paul. You’re such a treasure.”

“Paul is so great to work with for self tapes! Whenever I’ve worked with him he’s been so encouraging, supportive and makes me   comfortable in the scene.

He’s generous and works collaboratively with you to bring out your best performance. He has great technical knowledge too, will set up the room so it’s just right and has taught me quite a few neat film tricks.”
