About Johnny

Hi!

I'm Johnny Bui and I am a professional SAG/AFTRA actor, acting coach, and voiceover artist with over 11 years of experience. I have performed in numerous independent projects, feature films, television, commercials, short films, as well as community theater. I've had the privilege of working alongside some very talented and experienced actors throughout my career. I have certainly worked behind the scenes and yet, I always feel fatefully drawn to be in front of the camera. I believe in being the master of my own destiny and so I choose to be multifaceted by writing and producing my own projects as well.

I am a professional Meisner trained actor having studied at the University of California, Los Angeles School of Theater, Film, and Television (UCLA TFT) as well as at Baron Brown Studio. I also have professional training in Stanislavsky, Strasberg, Adler, and Hagen. I have studied under the tutelage of some of the most respectable acting teachers such as Joanne Baron, D.W. Brown, Alicia Coppola, Taylor Nichols, Katie Amanda Keane, Megan McNulty, Michael Kostroff, and Emily Swallow, just to name a few.

Every actor has their own unique creative process and I believe that we all have the ability to find that special magic within ourselves. I want to help you harness that ability. I am here to encourage you and help elevate you to reach your greatest potential. I will guide you on your journey as a thespian and as an artist.

About the lesson

I will be your acting coach and guide you to reach your greatest potential!

Currently, I have worked with nearly ONE THOUSAND different actors in honing their craft.

As an acting coach, I have helped many actors book numerous roles on television and film with major networks and major studios.

I work with actors at all levels of experience. Beginners and professionals alike.

I can provide help with any of the following:
- Film, television, commercial, voiceover, and stage
- Auditions (Self-tape and preparation for in-person)
- Scene study
- Being your scene partner
- Rehearsing
- Running lines
- Character development
- Improvisation
- Defining and understanding objectives and motivations
- Acting theory
- Anything and everything else you see fit!

I will help you develop unique and authentic characters so that you can deliver powerful auditions and performances. I’ll be more than happy to read as many times as you would like. We can discuss all manners of the performing arts and I’ll answer any questions that you may have. This is your session and your time, so you are the boss!

I am a Meisner trained actor having studied at the University of California, Los Angeles School of Theater, Film, and Television (UCLA TFT) as well as at Baron Brown Studio. I also have professional training in Stanislavsky, Strasberg, Adler, and Hagen. It all comes down to what works best for you and ultimately developing your own process. I have trained under the tutelage of some of the most respectable acting teachers such as Joanne Baron, D.W. Brown, Alicia Coppola, Taylor Nichols, Katie Amanda Keane, Megan McNulty, Michael Kostroff, and Emily Swallow, just to name a few.

I'm a proud SAG/AFTRA actor and I have been actively involved in this industry for the past 11 years and still going strong! My experience has come from doing numerous independent projects, feature films, television, commercials, short films, as well as community theater. I've had the privilege of working alongside some very talented and experienced actors throughout my career. I have certainly worked behind the scenes and yet, I always feel fatefully drawn to be in front of the camera. I believe in being the master of my own destiny and so I choose to be multifaceted by writing and producing my own projects as well.

Every actor has their own unique creative process and I believe that we all have the ability to find that special magic within ourselves. I want to help you harness that ability. I am here to encourage you and help elevate you to highest level that you can reach.

As your coach, I assure you that we will have a professional and productive session that you will be satisfied with. My feedback is never judgmental. I believe in giving you a safe space that provides empathy, encouragement, and supportiveness. I will gladly give my best advice for ideas and adjustments so that you can get the best performance possible. Our sessions can go for as long as you deem necessary. I’ll always make sure you that are happy with your session.

My lessons are very simple. You present me with any scene or material you would like to work on. It be could for an upcoming audition, a scene from class, or anything that peaks your interest. I will be your scene partner and read with you. We will pick it apart line by line and I'll be providing any advice and direction in guiding you to achieve your best performance. I encourage you to be opinionated and share your interpretation of the character and the scene with me. Even if our views may differ, I am always respectful of your thoughts and perspectives. This is a collaborative effort after all, so we will collectively work together to achieve the ideal performance.

We will usually run a scene as many times as necessary in order to achieve the best take. Each take will have various adjustments that I will give so that each following take will progressively get better and better. We also can play around and try out different versions of a scene so that you can stretch your range and have more options to choose from. The idea is to continually build upon the strengths and choices that you make and to keep chasing that momentum.

Other acting exercises such as improvisation and repetition can be implemented. In depth discussions about character development as well as objectives and motivations are always being addressed. Conversations about acting theory and anything to do with the performing arts are always welcomed.

Whether you are a budding young actor or a seasoned veteran, I will coach you through every step of the way. This is a collaborative effort so we can bounce all kinds of ideas off of each other and hone in on what you want to achieve. Not only will I be your coach but I will be your scene partner and we will create incredible art together!

Let’s get to work and have fun doing what we love!
