"I immediately smile when I see Catapult's blue wall and center light come across my screen while viewing auditions. I know that I will be viewing a well coached and taped audition. What Erik and his team at Catapult have built is what I consider to be the standard of what should be offered to actors in the world of coaching. I'll work with Catapult time and time again."
