Dan Velez Acting Studio

Dan Velez leads this acting studio, emphasizing freeing oneself of all acting ideas to allow room for truthful and spontaneous living.

Focusing on scene study, classes emphasize getting actors out of their heads and into their bodies and instincts by encouraging students to use any and all techniques that will allow them to bring truth, personalization, and ease to the part. As the Co-Owner and Co-Casting Director of Dream Big Casting, Dan Velez brings a valuable casting eye to the classroom that gives students a beneficial perspective to their work. Dan has auditioned and worked with thousands of actors in his years of casting; however, his passion lies in the craft of acting itself and is thrilled to now be able to work with actors on a more personal and specific level.
