Nurturing Talent, Crafting Careers
At DCO Studio, I pride myself on offering a truly holistic training program tailored to each individual artist, their goals, their learning style and their career ambitions. With clients at all stages of their professional journeys, DCO is committed to catering to the specific needs of every performer. Whether you are looking to refine your craft, update your casting profiles, book your dream role or sign with the agent you have always wanted, I am here to help you get there.
I work collaboratively with each client, building a foundation to facilitate an individual pathway for your acting goals. I focus not only on developing your acting skills, knowledge, processes and reels but also on providing the strongest possible career advice to support your long term success. My mission is to help professionals, new graduates, drama school applicants and teens gain access to acting opportunities through preparation, process, insight and skill.
DCO Studio clients can be found on stages across Australia, on international and domestic film sets, in audition rooms, in drama schools and everywhere in between.
So what are you waiting for?
Our Coaching & Creative Services
G’day, I’m Dan!
I’m a creative, coach, self tape specialist, career consultant, branding strategist, and lecturer, and the director of DCO Studio.
With over seven years of university training both in front of and behind the camera, I take a holistic approach to actor training. My process is built around each individual rather than a set curriculum, and I believe I can support any actor, regardless of background, training, or skill level.
I also bring hands on professional acting experience, having worked across film, television, theatre, musical theatre, short films, commercials, and I’ve even presented the news!
Over the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of sharing in my clients’ success as they’ve reached both their artistic and professional goals.
So whether you’re auditioning for drama school, preparing for set, building a strong acting foundation, or just beginning your artistic journey, let’s work together!
