Train Like a Working Actor. 🎥
Start with Fast Track. Grow inside TILT.

DeanWest

Hi, I’m Dean West.

I help actors grow quickly, train intelligently, and avoid the expensive mistakes I made early on.

I’ve been where you want to go - and I’ve helped thousands of actors move closer to it without wasting years or going broke chasing the wrong training.

Tilt is the place I wish I had when I started.

Yes - I’m a working actor.
I’ve coached actors for over 20 years.
And I’ve also produced, directed, written, and cast films.

I’ve worked inside agencies and casting offices.
I’ve seen this industry from every angle - not just the classroom.

That perspective matters.

Why Most Actors Stay Stuck

Most actors aren’t untalented - they’re misguided.

They spend years:

Paying for classes that don’t connect
Learning technique without application
Guessing instead of getting real feedback
Training in isolation

I did all of that too.

I paid for the classes.
Read the books.
Followed the advice.

And along the way, I realized something most programs ignore:

Acting growth is as much personal development as it is technical skill.

Once I started integrating psychology, presence, and self-awareness into the craft, everything accelerated - for me and for my students.

Why I built Tilt

I built Tilt because Actors needed:

Continuity instead of random classes
Feedback instead of guessing
Community instead of isolation
A clear path instead of endless options
TILT is an incubator.

It's where you:

Learn real film & TV craft
Build presence over performance
Get grounded before the industry tests you
Keep growing once you’re in it
This isn’t your grandma’s acting program.

We train for film and television.
We prioritize presence over performance.
We value feedback over theory.
And we grow together, not alone.

Experience That Actually Transfers

I’ve worked with industry giants like the late Rob Reiner, Woody Harrelson, Hilary Swank, and many others.

I have 60+ professional film and television credits, including leading roles.
I’ve walked red carpets - and I know what it takes to carry a film, not just book a role.

I don’t promise fame.

I build actors that people want to work with - again and again.

That’s how careers last.

How You Start

Everyone wants to audition before they’re ready.

Fast Track exists so you don’t.

It gets you prepared quickly, professionally, and intelligently - so while you continue training, you’re not making beginner mistakes that cost real opportunities.

From There:

You grow inside TILT
Step into Premium when you’re ready for deeper work
Move into VIP for direct training and ongoing feedback
And later, the Master Class (invite only)

There’s a path here.
You don’t have to guess it.

Start with Fast Track - and I'll see you inside the community.
