John Greus
Aspiring actor … and retail exec, speaker and coach.
LET's CREATE
ABOUT ME
My mission is to create something impactful together.
My family values and global travels shape authentic, nuanced performances to dramatic and comedic roles.
My ‘spices’ include diverse authentic accents, martial arts and love of singing.
I have a solid background in public speaking: I’ve inspired global audiences with motivational speaking, a skill now assisting my acting at Brad Milne Studios.
In short: A Dynamic Individual. Let’s create together!
From retail exec to speaker, now actor — leveraging leadership and storytelling for authentic, bold roles in the creative industry.
REELS
Process
Transparency of Work Flow
01
Script Study
I read the script thoroughly to understand the story, character, and relationships highlighting important lines and moments.
02
Character Research
I explore the character’s background, motivations, and emotions. Then I connect personal experiences to make the role authentic.
03
Memorization
I learn the lines and cues until they feel natural by doing imagination exercises to connect deeply with the character’s inner life. Practice aloud to build rhythm and flow.
04
Rehearsal
I work with the director and other actors to refine movement, timing, and delivery – staying open to spontaneous creative discoveries. Adjust based on feedback.
05
Voice & Body Warm-up
I do breathing, vocal, and physical exercises to prepare for focus and energy on stage.
06
Adjust based on feedback
I center mself, stay present, and trust my preparation. Step into character fully when the performance begins.
