Casting Director and Acting Coach Christy Faison in Atlanta

From Casting to Coaching

I didn’t move to LA to act—I moved there because I knew I belonged behind the camera. It wasn’t until I watched Kevin Bacon disappear into two wildly different roles that it hit me: casting matters. Someone made those choices. I wanted to be that someone.

That spark turned into a career in casting, working with incredible creatives and learning what really lands in the room—and what doesn’t.

Then one day, someone said, “You should teach.” I wasn’t sure I was ready. But I said yes. And I’ve never looked back.

Today, I coach actors who are ready to stop second-guessing and start showing up like they belong. I help them prepare, adjust, take risks, and bring their most grounded, honest work into the room—whether it’s an audition, a self-tape, or a day on set.

My coaching is instinctive, clear, and personal. No templates. No fluff. Just real support for real growth.

Let's Get to Work

Audition prep. Scene work. Self-tape confidence.

Whether you're gearing up for a specific role or looking to stay sharp between bookings, my coaching and classes

are designed to help you grow—with honest feedback, personalized material, and insight from inside the casting room.

Here’s what actors say about working with me...
