About
Hello and welcome!
My name is Garret Camilleri and I have been working within the Film/Television industry since 2008. As a SAG/AFTRA performer, I found success working on stage, screen, and in national commercial campaigns for Credit Karma, Truth, and McDonald's. I have worked as some of the most influential casting offices in Los Angeles, and have over five years of production experience.
As an entrepreneur, I have owned and operated an acting school in Los Angeles, and now run an online industry blog called, Acting Class Finder.
As a teacher, I worked with young adults at the Los Angeles Acting Academy and led workshops at the Actors Source in Studio City. I am a faculty member at Santa Monica College Emeritus and am currently working on an MFA in Performance Pedagogy at the Loyola Marymount University.

Aside from collaborating with others to help them reach their goals, I just love talking to people. I love getting to know people over time and seeing them grow more confident in their abilities each day.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I am a student-centered teacher. If we work together, my first priority is to listen; truly listen to the goals you have, how you learn best, and what material you want to cover during our time together. From there, we create a game plan that fits your schedule, cost, and willpower. If I were to describe my teaching sessions, they are fun, practical, and informative.
