The Jentzen Technique presented in Acting With Impact: Power Tools to Ignite the Actor’s Performance was developed by Los Angeles based teacher Kimberly Jentzen to empower film actors in their craft. Jentzen built her technique parallel to her own successful career as an actor and award winning writer and director (Anne Frank Meets God 2017, Grounds 2016, REIGN 2012, etc).

Kimberly Jentzen has been repeatedly voted Favorite Acting Teacher, Favorite Acting Coach and Best of: Acting Coach in the Back Stage Readers’ Choice Awards. That recognition by her students illustrates the depth of her commitment to getting actors the skills they need to become working professionals. Her insights regarding character development, emotional depth, cold reading and scene study have proven useful for directors and writers as well as actors. Kimberly Jentzen’s advanced acting classes are often frequented by agents, casting directors and managers who are in search of new talent.

She is currently editing her next book Acting with Instinct, which is scheduled for release in 2018.

ACTING with IMPACT: Power Tools to Ignite the Actor's Performance is the accumulated wisdom of the most authentic text of our time for the working professional actor. Kimberly Jentzen's intimate approach in the work led her to discover how we think and feel. Jentzen stirs the actor to stimulate truth and the human condition within themselves. This book is truly a revelation for the actor and should live in every actor's script bag to be referenced daily!
