Greg Apps celebrates 52 years in the film industry this year. As an actor, he worked across stage, radio, television, and film, appearing in Sunday Too Far Away, Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith, and Mad Dog Morgan alongside Denis Hopper. On stage, he played Brad in the original Australian production of The Rocky Horror Show—and claims his legs still look great in fishnets.
As a casting director, Greg has cast over 85 feature films, including Chopper, Romper Stomper, Mission Impossible II, and Knowing. He served on the Australian Film Institute Board for seven years and was named one of the 20 Most Influential People in the Australian Film Industry by IF Magazine in 2004. He was also the inaugural President of the Casting Guild of Australia.
A passionate educator, Greg has taught at NIDA, WAAPA, QUT, VCA, Flinders Uni, and more. He has pioneered a unique approach to actor self-tapes, blending digital tools, social media, and his deep expertise in acting, casting, and auditioning.
What do they say?
Greg enabled me to know myself better as an actor. His approach is innovative and freeing. Greg gives individual feedback from the Casting Director’s perspective. He increases an actor’s sense of ownership and flexibility in their work - he did for me - and I think what he's doing is great. You will never enjoy auditioning more than once you have been mentored by Greg.
The entire process was personal, organized and WELL worth every penny. Greg has pushed the idea of being MORE confident and trusting my gut. Learning to free myself up in the frame for an audition and releasing myself for the "box" that we sometimes feel we have to live in within the self tape audition. My brand is going to be ready to go when the time comes through the awesome Character Selfies.
The best course i did for my career, not only for auditions but also for my career path. Greg Apps is really good at finding your individual talents that your acting coach wouldn't even consider. Now I know how to survive in this business not worrying about competing with super model looking actresses.
Just do it! You will grow fast to the right direction!
I have learned so much and become so much more comfortable in the industry and with what I can personally bring to the industry because of Greg and Robbie in TAT. No matter where you are in your career-you will definitely get what you need from this one of a kind course and personal contact with Greg and Robbie.
