Welcome to My Site
It is my hope that through my vast experience and world-wide travels, as well as my Hollywood experiences, that I can offer to share my work, my wisdom, my teaching and my insight into this brave new world of acting and filmmaking in the 21st century.
It’s a confusing business, a hard business, a deceptive business and it really takes knowing someone who has ‘been there, done that’ to show you what the insiders don’t want the outsiders to know.
Wherevern you are in the world – in today’s new media environment, you no longer need to live in large cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta or international cities like London or Sydney to make a career come true as a filmmaker or actor. With social media tools and cheap digital technology at your hands, you can create a career of your dreams, while still maintaining a sustainable, sane living close to your family and friends.
Yes, Hollywood and New York is where it happens. But, through my teachings, guidance and support, you will find that I can help you achieve your dreams no matter where you live, and you can still get access to those industry pros in these cities. Web series, short films and the Internet are where it’s at. I can help you, yes even you actors!, how to create roles and projects that will get seen and help you build your career.
I teach in Universities, as well as in workshops and online. My online classes are the best because you get personal, one-on-one teaching, in the convenience of your own home and around your own schedule. My classes also cost a fraction of what it would cost to have a private coach in LA or New York.
I will post articles and helpful tips for free, to help you start putting together a game plan to achieve your goals in your own time frame. You don’t need to go to expensive schools, or wait 20 years for your kids to grow and move out – you can start anywhere, anytime, anyplace.
Please email me at jodi@jodinelson.com to get a free consultation and find out how to start your online classes with me.
I wish you the best in your career pursuits and passions. Life is short. Shouldn’t you get the best, to be the best? I look forward to hearing from you soon!
All my best,
