Introduction: Gino Rose. I am a working professional actor, performance artist, director, and active educator with extensive experience working with both children, young adults, and adults. I was most recently on the faculty of the Meisner Technique Studio, and have been a faculty member of American Conservatory Theatre, Young Conservatory; a professor of Acting at Academy of Art University; and an adjunct professor at Hult International Business School, teaching video and art history.
I have also been teaching two levels of Acting For The Camera at Marin Theatre Company
Actors often feel like they are alone in their process, or not clearly seen by their directors — who are always under time pressure. I love being able to collaborate with actors to help them grasp the essences of the parts they are playing, in a way that harmonizes with their director's vision. And of course, I enjoy helping actors prepare for their auditions. I am a life-long student myself, taking courses in acting technique, and solo performance, writing and performing. I also have a background in video and film production.
I am a long time director, producer, and writer in the video and television field, through my own production company, Grayfox Productions. I specialize in marketing communications, and my productions have won international awards, including the CINE Golden Eagle. I am also an experienced multi-camera, live television director. I have an MFA in Television and Film from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA.
I have made a specialty of preparing, training, coaching and directing individuals — including Fortune 500 CEO's — to make powerful and persuasive presentations both on-camera, on large stages, and in small groups. Many of my production clients have relied on me to coach them in presentation. For that reason, a number of my acting students have worked extensively with me to improve their professional and personal presentation skills, as well as their acting skills.
