"The reason your child's tape might not be landing… isn't the acting."

The reader — you — is invisible in the room but visible on screen.

Too flat, and the actor has nothing to respond to.
Too big, and the camera picks up on it.
Look at the page once, and the scene dies.

Reader101 gives you what no one else does: exact, scene-specific coaching for the person holding the sides.

Not reader tips.
Reader coaching.

🎭
Performance Engine
Know whether this is a PUSH or PULL scene — and exactly when to shift. Your energy type shapes the actor's response.
🔑
Key Beats
Line-by-line instructions: where to pause, slow down, hold silence — and what happens to the actor's performance if you don't.
🎯
Reader Fundamentals
The 10 rules every reader needs: the 50% rule, the 3-foot rule, how to listen on camera, when to step away.
Do This / Avoid This
Scene-specific. Consequence language. "If you rush this line, the actor loses the emotional turn." Not generic. This scene only.
👀
Connection Coaching
Eye-line, active listening, presence. Dead eyes are visible on camera. We'll tell you exactly when connection is non-negotiable.
🧠
Quick Reset
4–5 punchy reminders to read right before pressing record. So you walk in focused, not guessing.

Three steps.
One better self-tape.

Upload the sides
Drop in the PDF or paste the scene text. That's it — no account setup, no complicated forms.
02
We analyze the scene
Genre, tone, push/pull dynamics, key beats, timing windows — all extracted from the actual sides, not generic templates.
