WHAT ACTORS ARE SAYING... about Just for Actors, Take after Take, and Marks & Matching.
I am a SAG actor with experience in movies. In New York, I took both the Take After Take and Marks and Matching Workshops from Dennis Sakamoto, and then immediately moved on to do a principal role in a movie at the end of the same week.
These workshops changed how I worked on the movie set and made a tremendous tremendous difference.I used Dennis' tips and suggestions and got very good compliments from both the Director and the Cinematographer.
Dennis teaches practical things from experience that can be used right away. Not theories.He actually trains actors. Everything is simple and real. Dennis takes actors by the hand and walks them through working on a set exactly. I strongly recommend to every actor these workshops from Dennis Sakamoto are a MUST TAKE. Yury Tsykun SAG

“What I like about Dennis’ classes is that someone who is new to acting can still feel comfortable being with other people who are more experienced, and learn so much from his instructions. Recently I had a lead role in a music video and what I learned from my TakeAfterTake class was really helpful.” Li Sadler
I've worked with Dennis for many years. The lessons I've learned have helped me immeasurably on many feature films, commercial, theater, and corporate projects.
One of the important things he teaches is not how to act, but how to work. Because when you show up ready, you make life easier for everybody on the set. And that helps you get the next job, because when people remember you, they hire you.
Thanks Dennis!

“Marks and Matching is a fantastic way to learn continuity. Dennis makes on-set scenarios easily understandable. Now I know I’ll consistently be professional as an actor.” Julie Day
