YOURTAPE is our emergency self-tape service committed to helping you land the role.
Although there have been attempts to set certain industry standards with self tapes and their turnaround times - there are still regular occasions when such short notice may be unavoidable.
We know how much pressure these deadlines can put actors under. For this reason we have introduced our #SelfTapeSundayService designed to provide some assistance before the week is up.
PRICING
FREE 10 minute Read through scenes & discussion.
Sundays Only
£20 per hour 10am - 4pm Using our camera / mic set-up.

Hour starts when filming starts. We will notify you 10 minutes before each hour is up so that you don't accidentally run over. We are always open and understanding - we don't count to the minute or the second!

*Please note we treat all of our self-tape recording sessions with great sensitivity and are dedicated to protecting your identity in line with The Ten Talent Ltd. privacy policy which outlines our rules on data protection. We store all our recordings in password protected hard drives and we delete all tapes 2 weeks after filming, so please make sure you keep your downloaded versions. On the rare occasion that we would like to post any still images to our social media platforms we will always first seek your written permission & approval.
Self Taping services are FREE to all actors participating in The Ten Mentorship Programme.
