Killian has been called the secret weapon by commercial casting directors and commercial agents for years in Los Angeles. Since 2005, Killian’s Workshop has been training people in the art of booking. His location on Melrose, in the heart of Hollywood, hosts weekly classes aimed at all aspects and levels of expertise.

This is critical if you are to get the most out of the class. You must do the assignments and exercises if you want to gain the skills necessary to book commercials.
After you complete the course, I encourage you to view the class again periodically as a refresher. And of course utilize that last video in the lobby of your auditions!
Most of all, I want to welcome you to the Killian’s Workshop community and wish you all the success in the world as you pursue your career.
Leap and the net will appear!
Killian McHugh, creator of Killian’s Workshop, began working in commercial casting in the early 2000’s. He has worked for most of the top commercial offices in Los Angeles and worked with most of the top commercial directors as either an on-camera principle actor or through the casting process. He has worked in every aspect of the commercial casting industry, from “lobby-person” that signs you in to camera-person, session director and then finally Casting Director at one of the top 5 offices in Los Angeles.
Killian founded the workshop with the sole purpose of revealing the knowledge he had learned from casting thereby empowering his fellow actors during their auditioning process. Having seen literally thousands of auditions, Killian realized there was a great disconnect between what casting was actually looking for and what the actor THOUGHT casting was looking for!
Killian realized he is most passionate about helping actors book! He opened his own studio on Melrose completely dedicating his life to teaching the art of booking to actors.
The results have been a virtual phenomenon. Since its founding, Killian’s Workshop has helped thousands of actors book commercials resulting in millions of dollars in residuals for the working actor. Killian’s Workshop was voted “Best Commercial Workshop” by the Backstage West readers poll and Killian himself was voted “Best Workshop Teacher” in that same poll. In 2012 he appeared in MTV’s Made as the “go to guy” if you want to book commercials in Los Angeles. In 2014 he appeared on Conan O’Brien’s show as his acting coach and the bit was named an instant classic by the Huffington Post. It has received over 5 million hits on Youtube. In 2016 he was interviewed by the LA Times and it was the first time in the papers history that an acting coach was featured on the front page of the Entertainment section.
