Director, Writer & Acting Teacher ANTHONY MEINDL | Berlin Workshops 

IT'S TIME TO RE-EXAMINE HOW WE LOOK AT ACTING WORKSHOPS!

Anthony has worked with everyone from 2-Time Golden Globe Nominee, Shailene Woodley, BAFTA Nominee Daryl McCormack, Grammy Winner, Camila Cabello, Pop Sensation, Suki Waterhouse, Bridgerton stand-outs Phoebe Dynevor and Simone Ashley, Ginny & Georgia's Brianne Howey, Pom Klementieff (Mission Impossible) and hundreds of others. 

Tony is known for getting actors out of their heads, trusting themselves and no longer second-guessing the "right" way of doing something. His work has led actors to become free and spontaneous and in-the-moment in revolutionary ways. His Art of Acting has less to do with how well you memorize and construct an "idea" of something, but more about the radical act of self-acceptance and surrender, bravery and intuition in a process that is supposed to be fun, freeing and empowering -- but sadly, most actors have been taught to over-analyze and overthink everything. Get out of your head and into your body.

Tony's first feature as a writer/director -- Where We Go From Here -- was sold to HULU in 2020. He also just finished his second feature last year that filmed in Greece, India, Canada, Taiwan, Namibia and South Africa and is a collection of love stories that culminate in a climate crisis. It stars Shadow & Bone's Amita Sumanand Sonia Yuan from last year's Academy Award-winning Film, Drive My Car.

TESTIMONIALS

For the role of Cinderella, which Cabello describes as “funny” and a “new, more empowered version of the story,” she faced her fear head-on. Says Cabello: “For my first acting classes, I was, like, ‘What the f– am I doing here? This is so scary.’ But my acting coach, Anthony Meindl, taught me it’s all about the act of surrender and ‘the art of listening,’ as opposed to being in your head. That’s the only technique he has for acting, as simple as it is.” – VARIETY Magazine. - Camila Cabello (Grammy Nominee)

“Anthony Meindl is a joy to work with. He was a big part of me finding my strengths as an actor and having the confidence in my choices.” -  Phoebe Dynevor (BRIDGERTON, Netflix)

“I was blown away by the level of talent of his students and their ability to take direction.”  - Eli Roth (Director, CABIN FEVER)

“I think Tony is absolutely incredible and coming to class for me isn’t just about letting loose and growing my ability as an actor but more sometimes to really open up myself to the universe and just be. Sometimes I find him saying things that I mentally live by and its so refreshing to constantly hear them being affirmed. Thank you so much for every week re-instilling that positivity and creativity and openness within. You allow me as an actor to forget about the character and remember about Shailene, which makes every movement, moment and word so authentic and true. I’m so grateful to have you as a mentor.” - Shailene Woodley (2-Time Golden Globe Nominee & Emmy Nominee)
