Undercurrent Media

Aina and Bru are awesome. They came through for me at the last minute big time. They have a really great set up to make your online audition look it’s best, their coaching is enthsiastic and very helpful. They will help you get it exactly the way that you want it. If you need to put yourself on tape I would highly suggest Aina and Bru, not only are they really good at what they do. They are super nice. No need to look elsewhere.

I’m so lucky to have found Undercurrent. Bru and Aina are so nice and accommodating – they’ve let me come in at 10pm twice now to make a short turn around. They have the very best equipment and the tape always looks so darn good it could pretty much be the finished product! They’re also such great readers and give really awesome coaching that truly helps you stand out. Go to them!!!

I have used a few places to tape my auditions and undercurrent really is my favorite. They really take the time to make sure lighting is perfect as well as the sound. Bru and Aina are both amazing actors and really work to give you a solid read. Most importantly I feel they really believe in you when you are in there. They pay attention to the details and give honest feedback of the scene. All of this in a not rushes 30 minutes is amazing. I have also worked with them for an hour for a larger scene and it is equally wonderful.
Not only is is affordable but you get the files very quickly and they look and sound phenomenal. They have become friends and an amazing breath of fresh air when I get the «I need this put on tape» not worrying how it will come together and just working on the scene is amazing.
Don’t hesitate to check them out

When I clicked on that 5^th star, the message popped up «Woohoo! As good as it gets!
And the first thing I thought was «WITHOUT A DOUBT». Thats how I felt about my experience here at Undercurrent Media. I have to say that I was blown away by how kind, warm, welcoming and then to top it off and of course the most important thing when you need a great job done… How knowledgeable and professional Bru and Aina were here at UNDERCURRENT MEDIA. They know their business, know what works and what doesn’t. They light you well, they have the teleprompter app if you want it, they direct if needed (and they know what they are talking about because this is not their first time at the rodeo) but they were also open to listening to my thoughts and idea, asking what I needed and making the entire visit not only a joy but I ended up with a great product. Great price, great people, great product. What more could you ask for.

Just recorded slate shots with these guys but they were super professional and nice. I loved the setup, the lighting was fantastic and the turnaround for the finished edited product was so fast. Highly recommend!

Aina and Bru are amazing. I’ve self taped different places but I found my home. Great quality, fast and professional. I’d recommend them to anyone.

So good and efficient! Bru and Aina are totally lovely and Bru helped me so much, even though he had to read a thousand different roles all by himself AND man the camera. A True Renaissance man! The finished product was fantastic and I will definitely go to them again! Thanks Bru and Aina!

I needed an Actors Slate according to… Everybody! So glad I used Undercurrent. They were encouraging fun and very professional, I will definitely use them in the future for self-​tape etc. quick turn-​around everything looked great! Thanks Aina and Bru for a great session

I can’t say enough good things about Undercurrent Media. I’ve done a few of their $ 20 on tape classes. Just awesome! You do a scene however you want just to try it that way. They then send a copy of all your takes to your email by that evening.
They even gave away free slate shots for anyone who donated cloths to the homeless.
Very nice and very positive people. If you work with them once, you’ll want to work with them forever.

Professional team, great-​looking/​sounding tape, fast turnaround. Aina and Bru will go above and beyond to make sure you leave with a superior product. I almost don’t want to add to their praise, because I know they’ll be booked solid soon ;)

Really great set-​up and people. Very cooperative and helpful. Willing to work around your schedule, including last-​minute. Highly recommend.

Surprisingly affordable and super cool. Had to put myself on tape last minute for something and they went out of their way to accommodate me and did fantastic job! I recommended them to a family member who hired them to do some big corporate videos.

First off–
This is by far the best money I have EVER spent on a self tape! Not only do you get the highest quality in studio set ups, but Bru and Aina and super talented as coaches, and support you in mining your best possible audition. What a bonus! The facilities are superb, accessible, and these are some of the most generous artists, and tech savvy engineers that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Whether working with them for a self tape, (which for them is like fishing with dynamite), or for their full suite of media services, you will not find a better value anywhere. That’s a promise. Now call em up, break a leg, and put yourself in the best position to book that gig!

Aina and Bru at Undercurrent Media are the absolute best when it comes to self-​taped auditions. I was so pleased with my audition video, as well as their professionalism while recording my tape. They also give really great suggestions during the taping process that really give you that extra edge up in the competition.
They are so great — I cannot emphasize it enough! I will be coming here every time I need a self taped audition!

Whenever I get an audition, I go straight to the experts: Aina and Bru at Undercurrent Media. They’re the best at coaching actors. They help me become completely prepared for my auditions, and casting directors are always very happy with my work.
Aina and Bru go above and beyond in everything they do. If you need to be coached, put on tape for an audition, have your reel edited, or need anything directed, go to them. They take their time until everything is perfect. I love how nice their studio space is, with all the best equipment and lighting. Plus they’re the nicest people in LA.
Getting an audition is tough enough. Don’t blow that rare opportunity. Do your career a favor and contact Undercurrent always.

Doing self tape auditions with these guys have been some of the most awesome experiences I had that was not only super nice from Bru and Aina but also incredibly speedy with high quality to boot. I highly recommend these guys for any of your self taping needs: D

These guys are the rare combination of professional and fun!
Had to schedule a self-​tape on Sunday for a Monday noon deadline. I was able to schedule online, and Aina got back to me very quickly with a confirmation.
Bru and Aina have a beautiful backdrop and superior equipment – i’d almost rather tape with them than go into a CDs office. They will make you look so good! In addition to the awesome studio, they are excellent readers and have great ideas for second takes.
Super-​quick turnaround and extremely affordable. And very very nice people. I will definitely be back.

I had a coupon for a free «self tape» audition session. Well, I am SO glad I used it. They were SO nice and helpful — and their website to schedule a taping is a BREEZE. They sent me several digital reminders with all the pertinent information — asked for my sides in advance so THEY could be prepared — then you are just relaxed by their kind spirit and you go in and get GREAT helpful, technical feedback to make your scene ON POINT!
If you have a self tape request — I HIGHLY recommend using this service, because it is WAY easier and more professional than other places I have tried. The lighting and camera is of the highest quality — I know it will look on par with anyone casting in a CD office.
Fantastic experience!

First and foremost, as an actor trying to make it in this town there are tons of people and businesses just trying to take your money with not much to show for it — and I am very happy to say THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE PLACES!
The team was extremely helpful, professional, positive, focused and dare I say genuine and kind… (I know, unthinkable). I put an audition on tape and Bru (the guy) not only was an excellent reader, but he made sure that I was in focus, correctly framed and well-​lit. The space was inviting and professional and the technology was up to date.
The turn-​around on my material was quick and I really can tell that they put real consideration into the review and edit of my footage. I will definitely be back. For everything. :)

I got my demo reel cut with them from a couple short films I shot last year, and they worked their magic. The final product was awesome! They have a really good sense of pace and editing and getting you the best reel possible. They’re really easy to work with and the space was great
I got to check out their self-​tape facility and I was impressed with their set up — they have top of the line lighting equipment and cameras. will definitely try it out in the future
