Testimonials
Don’t just take our word for it! Have a read of what our lovely actors think of working with us at Mr Selftape.
I first went to Frazer when I had a Very Serious self tape to do, and I hoped he’d be worth the investment. Turned out, he was. The result was 7 months shooting Hijack for AppleTV. My home-made self tapes had always been lacking things that Frazer brings, in spades. A really Professional shop window is what he provides. I’ve been to him ever since, and always will. When you work with Frazer, you’re working with a highly Professional and kind, gentle friend who REALLY wants you to get hired. He has the uncanny ability to always make me look far better than in real life, Excellent lighting. A man who also understands each and every aspect of the job in hand. He’s a technical wizard as well, and an actor/director with a Superb eye. His notes on takes are always spot on. And if you want to read the sides, he can do that, effortlessly, too. I commend him to you in the Highest Degree and I consider myself absurdly fortunate to have found him. Apart from any of the above, he’s also a most Excellent human being in any other area you care to look. If I could buy shares in him, I would. Frazer is the Real Thing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

BEST self-tape studio in London.
I’d been in a real rut with self-taping, and a friend recommended Mr Self Tape after feeling the same way. I went to see Frazer today, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him more. He’s incredible- from his thoughtful and instinctive reading and professional setup to his efficiency and the welcoming, relaxed environment he’s created. On top of all that, he’s just a genuinely lovely person who makes the whole process enjoyable. For the first time in a while, self-taping actually felt fun. If you’re feeling stuck or uninspired with your tapes, do yourself a favour and book in. You’ll leave feeling refreshed and confident. Thank you Frazer!

I’ve been going to Mr. Selftape for my tapes for years, and I can’t recommend it enough. Thanks to Frazer, I’ve booked multiple jobs. Frazer’s direction is incredibly insightful and always helps me bring out the best of myself. For me, not having to worry about setup, lighting, or editing makes a huge difference because I can focus entirely on my acting and connecting with the character. Also, Frazer’s flexible working hours are incredibly flexible, especially for last-minute or tight-turnaround auditions. If you’re in need of self-tape help, I highly, highly recommend Mr. Selftape. Thank you!!!!
- Aylin Scott
I’ve done many self tapes with Frazer and he’s the best! His set up is phenomenal (best lighting and sound) and the space is perfect; no outside noise or interference. If you want notes/direction, he’s great but he’s also greatat sitting back and letting you do your thing. Would highly recommend! I did the self tape with him that got me the role of Dana Monroe in EastEnders.
- Barbara Smith

- Laura Wohlwend
I couldn't recommend Mr Selftape to anyone enough. I've been working with Frazer for over a year now and the feedback from my agent have always been great. His studio is top draw, amazing quality all round for a worthy price. From the off he always made me feel super relaxed and is very officiant when it comes to the taping. Even when he's booked up for the day he'll try his best to find a slot for me, even if it's a zoom call reading to get the tape done. Great guy. Friendly and professional. Mr Selftape takes the tediousness out of taping and makes it fun. He's the go to tape guy!
- Samuel Mitchell

- Honor Koe
I always look forward to taping now that I've found Mr Selftape because of the friendly and supportive atmosphere. Frazer gives some really helpful direction and a great off camera read. I find the technical stuff stressful but Frazer just takes all that away from me and my tapes always look and sound professional. All I have to do is learn the lines!
- Robert J Purdy
I am very happy with Frazer. He is pretty much always available, at short notice given the nature of self tapes... His input is helpful and constructive, and he has great ideas. I highly recommend him!

A great resource for actors.
As an experienced actor and director, Mr Selftape knows how to bring out the best in a performance, as well as what makes a tape stand out to casting professionals. The quality is high, the process is relaxed and easy, and he's often available on short notice. Definitely would recommend.
- Vincent Lai

Frazer has been an incredible support for me time and time again. When I’m stuck or unsure how to approach a scene, he has a knack for providing clarity and helping me find the right path. He’s always generous with his time and effort, putting his all into every session to make sure I leave with a tape I’m proud of. I’m so thankful to have someone like Frazer in my corner—it’s a privilege to work with him. I cant recommend him enough.

Going to Frazer is so much better than trying to do self tapes at home. He is incredibly warm, encouraging and professional. He has an instinctive reaction to the material and offers great notes, and all the practical difficulties are taken care of. It's an investment in yourself. You won't regret it!

Frazer has helped me on so many occasions and I always leave our taping sessions feeling excited and inspired. He helps me see things clearly when I am stumped and navigate the scene when I don't know what to do. He always finds time and gives a hundred and ten percent to everything he does. I feel so grateful and lucky to have him!

Excellent service. I was not rushed and got the results I wanted. So glad he is local too. First time using his services and I have already been shortlisted from one of the tapes we did 🥳
- Portia Booroff
Frazer is brilliant, responds quickly to emails and last minute requests, his set up is professional and the quality of the tape is 1st class. Also with fraiser being an actor, any help with the tape that's required is always given plus you are given something to act off rather than just a one tone reading. The editing is swiftly done resulting in a fun professional, non stress experience. Fully recommend.
- Alex Frost
Top knotch service. Friendly and encouraging - no need to learn lines. Gives great direction and makes the whole experience a breeze. 75% personal success rate in booking jobs from their self tape service. Excellent. Highly recommended. ❤️
- Helen Sheals
I have now used Frazer more than a few times ! and would not even consider trying to to my own self tapes when asked to audition. I would recommend him highly for any actor that struggles with the angst and panic that arises when receiving the news of doing a self tape! How one is expected to grasp any sense of truth in a performance,when fussing about on the other side of the lens with an iPhone or some other camera and tripod,I cannot imagine. Having worked on a number of feature films and TV in the past where I always went up in person to meet with the casting director and it was unheard of to be asked to do this kind of technical jargon! Frazer is straight to the point and always so helpful in making any adjustments that may enhance your performance,and also reading the other lines with honest and helpful conviction. He always makes himself available at any moment convenient to one’s schedule and is a lovely human being too
-Anna Lanyon
Frazer has revolutionised the world of selftaping for me - He takes away all the stress of filming/lighting/recording at home and provides a wonderfully relaxed and supportive but very professional studio environment in which to work. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
- Clare Lawrence-Moody

- Clara Paget
The perfect place for your self-tape! You are in safe hands with Frazer and Mr Selftape.. Great quality picture and sound, and reading with a fellow actor that gets the business. Always very accommodating with slots, even when things are last minute (as they always are!) and a nice fresh energy to bounce ideas off should you need any help. I couldn’t recommend this studio more highly. Thank you! Looking forward to the next one.
- Chris Gordon
“If you got a Self-Tape audition to submit at short notice and your a bit of a technophobe with the camera lighting and sound like me and you’ve got no one to read with you. Then there is only one person you need to call, that’s Frazer aka Mr Self-Tape. He can come to you promptly, professional with good acting experience and performance feedback and gets your video clips back quickly. Great Service. Great Guy. Great Bike! ”
— Yinka Awoni
“I had a last minute self tape request sent through to me on an all too hectic day. The task seemed near impossible, however I contacted Mr Self Tape and he was flexible with timing and willing to go the extra mile (literally) for me. The session was filled with laughter and positivity, bringing with him the right equipment and a great attitude, thanks Mr Self Tape.”
— Kate Goodfellow
“ Frazer is amazingly professional and talented. His camera and acting skills are amazing, which really helped as I needed to someone to read with me as well as record me. Very happy with the end result. Thank you!!”

“Frazer took all the stress out of the technical stuff, and produced a way more dynamic and watchable video than I could have ever made on my own. Frazer has become my go-to video guy!”
— Catherine Searle
“Frazer’s unique combination of filming and editing skills mixed with his energy, enthusiasm and understanding of performance to camera means he is able to produce a high standard of work whilst being a joy to work with. ”
— Nev Floyd
“I love working with Frazer it’s so much better and hassle free to have someone come to you and do a self tape from the comfort of your own home! With him being an actor too I felt so much more at ease and grateful to have a reader to feed me lines. The end product was great and so much better than my crumby self taping. Frazer even sent my audition videos for me which was such a relief as I’m terrible with technology and felt more relaxed to concentrate on the work!”
— Camilla Clayton
“My experience with Mr self tape was brilliant professional and personable, he helps to make the process smooth and rich.”
— Jerome Roberts
“Frazer Blaxland aka Mr Self Tape is a hero! He has saved me on countless occasions at incredibly short notice and provides a studio quality, professional & fast service. Warm & friendly and having an in depth knowledge of working in the industry himself he know’s the importance of a great self tape. I have recommended him to all my colleagues and consider him and integral part of my team.”
— Bevan Viljoen
“I’m so glad I’ve found Mr Selftape through luck really. The previous year was a real hassle. I often couldn’t get fitted in at weekends or it would cost an extraordinary amount of money if they could. My friend who kindly helped me wasn’t in the acting game and wasn’t an expert in knowing about a camera. Often I would have to do it again as the curtains were a distraction and by the time I figured out where and how I could do the self-tape, time was ticking away leaving me less time to look at the script I’d been sent. I often needed to google the context to understand what I was saying and many a time you only have 24 hours to submit. So all in all Mr Selftape has been a God Send in my eyes; no more hassle, no more going back and re-doing. Exactly what they needed and done in a professional way. It’s even made me like self-taping now, especially when Mr Selftape is willing to travel to you. Selftapes under your own roof; no more hassle.”
