All right, you're in.

Access is live.

Welcome to VS Works studio Access.

Just a quick orientation and then we're gonna get right to work.

A reminder, this is focused one on one work, you and me, one script at a time.

And while we're working together, we're gonna get to know each other through the choices you make.

I understand some of you are jumping into VO for the very first time, and some of you are here to kind of tighten things up.

And some of you are here to push even further, but wherever you're at, you've begun a real connection between us.

You bring the work, I bring the notes.

No browsing, no fishing around, just material you actually care about.

I will listen closely, respond honestly, and keep this conversation centered on what's working and maybe what's not.

What happens next is really straightforward.

You'll see clear instructions for set up and selection down there.

So take as much time as you need, choose carefully, and when you're ready, send it through.

Welcome inside.

Let's do this

ADVANCED — Directed Animation Performance

ADVANCED is for performers who already work comfortably in animation and want to sharpen precision, adaptability, and professional-level control through directed performance work with Ian.

This tier focuses on speed of adjustment and specificity under direction. Characters are more demanding, emotional shifts are tighter, and performances need to hold together across sharper tonal and storytelling transitions.

Setup is intentionally minimal. You're expected to arrive prepared, make clear choices quickly, and respond efficiently to direction—mirroring the pace of real professional animation sessions.

Each performance receives direct, personal direction from Ian, followed by a refinement pass so adjustments can be applied immediately and heard in the work itself.

This is not instruction or theory. It's high-level performance refinement—tightening instinct, expanding range, and increasing reliability at a professional standard.

ADVANCED emphasizes:

Faster, cleaner adjustment under direction
Nuanced emotional and tonal control
Strong point of view and specificity
Consistency across complex material

ADVANCED is ideal for:

Working or near-professional animation performers
Advanced students preparing for auditions
Actors seeking sharper professional readiness

If you're ready to refine your work with greater precision and control, ADVANCED is where that work deepens.
