We can’t think of a better time to work on your craft. As we’ve been seeing in our ongoing Zoom classes, the work 📽 is simply and powerfully you in a close up, present and authentic. It’s showing us all that this is the NEW Self-tape, the NEW on-camera, the NEW audition, and the NEW way to take command of your career as a writer/creator. It’s actually incredibly exciting. When the Industry starts up again - and it definitely will start up again - you'll be expected to do a new kind of work  in your self-tapes and auditions. You’ll be expected to be in the driver’s seat as a content creator. You want to be prepared and in the best shape of your life. So… We’re offering 4 BRAND NEW 4-week classes through The BGB (Virtual!) Studio, to jumpstart your isolation into independence and your most honest work imaginable! Use this time at home to explore ways in which you can show up fully, present, and alive in your work. Don’t you want to be ready when the Industry’s back? #BGBcommunity #laactor #actorslife #artinthetimeofcorona #pandemic2020 #coronavirus #selfcare #stayhomechallenge #artistsofinstagram #healingthroughart #thebgbstudio #makeyour work #create #writersroom #write #bgbactor #actingclass #virtualclass #onlineclass #actorschallenge #actingstudio #hollywoodshutdown @risabg @stevebrauncoaching

Actors worldwide, please join us online during our BGB Virtual Sit Down via Zoom on April 6th at 5pm PST! We'll talk in an online class setting on Zoom (SO easy to download and use) about our approach to the Industry (even in our current climate), auditioning, career building, craft, and artistic leadership, and why your vulnerability + bravery are so vital right now. And we'll be here to answer your questions. We want to see your faces, hear from you, feel you, and be here for you! Sign up now through our link in bio, as virtual space is limited - and we'll see you at the BGB Virtual Sit Down! Once you sign up, we’ll get you instructions on how to use Zoom and how to engage in the Virtual Sit Down. . . . . . @risabg @stevebrauncoaching #thebgbstudio #bgbactor #actorslife #laactor #pandemic2020 #actingclass #actingstudio #artinthetimeofcorona #artistsofinstagram #hollywoodshutdown

The world needs your voice. As we are ALL experiencing big feelings about the state of the world, take a little time today to dig out that project that’s been on the back-burner or one that’s been percolating for a while, or something entirely new that speaks to where you are right now- something that’s coming up with this crucible wide open. Whatever it is, get in touch with it. Write it down. Now is the time to sit down and express it... and create! . - Whether it’s a feature screenplay or an eccentric Instagram character or an online group story- or anything in between- you have the power to make moves in your career, right from your laptop. (And there will be a time when this will be over and you’ll have a new way of being an artist!) Write something… anything… you’ll be amazed at what’ll come out! . - BONUS: reach out to a friend, a peer or classmate, and start writing together. You can share screens and writing programs and collaborate in a virtual space. We’re already seeing it happen in our Virtual Zoom classes. You can make beautiful stories together!. - Share what you’re creating. We want to know.

We’re still here. Although the world outside might look quite different than it did a week ago, our virtual doors are open. And our purpose has never been clearer. Now more than ever -- you must ACT. You must act to heal, to connect and to reaffirm your humanity. The world needs your wild creativity, your compassion, your stories, your big feelings- your fear and your joy. - - We’re still your artistic home, and BGB classes are still happening + streaming LIVE in our Online Studio. If you’re skeptical, we get it -- we were too. But we have now tested new online classes, trained our teachers, and we are deeply moved by the work that is happening, just like always, in these LIVE virtual classes. We cannot wait to share in the work with you, from wherever you are. - - Let us know what you need. We are here. Apply for ANY class and we will share our online offerings coming in April! We have lots to give you! - - Be healthy and safe, stay connected, and we’ll see you in class -- in our virtual Online Studio! - - - - #staycreative #selfcare #BGBcommunity #socialdistancing #flattenthecurve #artinthecovidera #covid19 #artistry #community #artheals #loveinthetimeofcorona #artinthetimeofcorona #isolation #pandemic #quarantine @risabg @stevebrauncoaching @cateeco @sydsource @felipefigueroathethird @therealshaneconnor @justkateh @brandonmmorales @hunterdoebereiner @wimbsical @dresfine @stevetrzaska
