Audition Intensive with Lisina Stoneburner

AUDITION INTENSIVE w/ LISINA STONEBURNER
Work out your audition skills with the Southeast’s most sought after audition coach and on-set coach.

Lisina Stoneburner will work with a very limited number of students in this four hour intensive. She is extremely honest, gives you practical skills you can apply right away for immediate results. Like her ongoing Master Class, her Boot Camps and her Weekend Master Classes, Lisina approaches all of her students with the idea that something can change in your process today that will immediately create positive results in your work. She is always straight forward as she asks you stand out on the ledge and take a leap. You can always count on her showing you how to move forward with a new sense of confidence in your abilities and more tools to help you do it.

Her students book work – Current Work, Lead Roles, Supporting Roles.
Lemonade Mouth, Footloose, Easy A, Aaron Stone, Cirque Du Freak, The Lion King on Broadway, A Raisin in the Sun, High School Musical 3, Army Wives, Meet the Browns, House of Payne, A Joyful Noise, The Soloist…
Her coaching on sets for films and television shows is widely respected.
Drop Dead Diva, Why Did I Get Married Too, The Better Man and she is the current on set coach for hit CW show The Vampire Diaries.

Lisina’s coaching works because it’s honest, practical and applicable. It works because her foundations are based in a truthful technique that actors can access through the use of a real skill set. She does not teach tricks. She teaches a real process.

Take the Audition Intensive and see why her students who learn full time with her always work in all mediums.
