FOR ACTORS. BY INDUSTRY INSIDERS.
Your career is your business,
let’s build it like one.
Join the first-ever 12-week cohort-based mentorship designed to help actors navigate auditions, branding, self-tapes, representation, and long-term career growth.
The Business of Acting
Most actors pour everything into their craft — and that's not wrong. But many professionals in the industry consider an acting career to be roughly 60% business savvy and 40% acting craft.
The 60% involves developing, marketing, and managing your career to generate opportunities rather than simply waiting for them. It means building a strategic, long-term plan to navigate the industry with intention and confidence.
TCT exists to teach that side of the business, the side most actors never get formal guidance on. The submissions, the branding, the representation strategy, the materials, the networking. The whole picture.
We're here for
the 60%.

As an LA Talent Agent, she also successfully booked talent in mainstream projects, including Yellowstone, 1923, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and Outer Banks. Her experience has provided her with firsthand insight into the qualities that distinguish actors who build lasting careers.

We just can’t say enough wonderful things about working with Jean and Treasure Coast Talent!

I have worked with Jean for years now. I audition her actors for every job that I have and I always end up booking some of them. She has a great eye for Talent and I hope to continue to work with her and her actors.
-
Jean and Treasure Coast Talent have been great to work with. In my experience, Jean has always been professional, honest, responsive, and clear in her communication. She cares about actors and takes the work seriously. I have appreciated her integrity, follow-through, and the way she serves people well. I am glad to recommend her and excited to see this next chapter of TCT.

What began as a professional collaboration quickly became a true partnership—Jean not only helped us navigate the casting process but also took the time to educate us on industry best practices, ensuring that we felt informed, prepared, and confident as new filmmakers. Her experience, wisdom, and leadership proved invaluable at every stage of production. So many times, we would think "Is that really the best option? Or, something feels off here... Let's call Jean to make sure."
For any actor looking to grow, develop their craft, and build a meaningful career in film, we wholeheartedly recommend Jean Wenger and Treasure Coast Talent.
-
I've had the privilege of working with Jean Wenger and TCT over multiple film projects, and I can confidently say they are among the most professional and trustworthy people in the industry. Jean and Sarah consistently provided us with high-quality actors while making the casting process smooth and efficient. I highly recommend Jean and Sarah to both actors and filmmakers alike.
-
I've had the privilege of working with Jean and The Christian Talent Agency on multiple film projects over the years, and I can say without hesitation that she is one of the most genuine, trustworthy, and professional people I've encountered in this industry.
What has always impressed me about Jean is that she sees actors as people first. In a business that can often feel transactional, she leads with integrity, encouragement, and a sincere desire to help others succeed. Whether we were casting projects, discussing talent needs, or simply talking about the future of faith-based entertainment, Jean consistently brought wisdom, honesty, and excellence to every conversation.
TCT has been a valued partner in helping our productions connect with talented actors who not only fit the roles but understood the heart behind the stories we were trying to tell. Communication was always clear, expectations were well managed, and I always knew that if Jean was involved, things would be handled the right way.
As someone who is passionate about building the future of Christian and family entertainment, I've especially appreciated Jean's commitment to investing in people for the long term. She doesn't just help actors find opportunities. She equips, mentors, and encourages them as they navigate an often challenging industry.
I am excited to see this next chapter for TCT. The mentorship-focused model feels like a natural extension of who Jean has always been. I have no doubt that the actors who participate will benefit not only from her industry knowledge, but from her heart for helping people discover and walk confidently in their calling.
I wholeheartedly recommend Jean and TCT to anyone seeking mentorship, guidance, representation, or partnership within the film and television industry.

From the very beginning, I felt seen and understood by Jean and Sarah. I wasn’t just an actor on their roster. I was a valuable team member. Jean and Sarah know the industry, they communicate thoroughly, they are very professional and punctual; all the things that a talent agency needs in their skill set. But it was their empathy and understanding of me as a person that made working with them so enjoyable. That, coupled with guiding me through headshots, auditions, negotiations, and fighting for me, made working with them so enjoyable. Cannot say enough good things about TCT.
-
Treasure Coast Talent will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart. This industry can be brutal, but with TCT I always felt seen and heard. They don't just care about the business, they care about YOU.
-
I can't say enough good things about Jean and my experience with Treasure Coast Talent Agency. I always felt like I had a very strong advocate with Jean. Although I'm sad not to have her as my agent any longer, I know she will bring years of wisdom and sage advice to everyone she coaches.
-
I wouldn’t be where I am today without Jean Wenger. She took a chance on me when no other talent agency would’ve given me the time of day.

Upcoming Masterclasses
Masterclass in
UGC for Actors
SEPTEMBER 1st @ 7pm EST via Zoom
Actors, what if the skills you already have could become another income stream?
You already know how to:
🎬 Perform naturally on camera
📱 Self-tape and create content
📝 Interpret scripts and take direction
💡 Bring a concept to life
Those are the exact skills brands are looking for in UGC creators.
Join us for UGC for Actors, a masterclass designed to show you how to turn the skills you already have into paid brand content opportunities, without needing a huge social media following.
Your instructor is TCT’s Sarah LeJeune, a former Brand Content Manager, professional video editor, actor, and working UGC creator. She brings experience from both sides of the industry, from hiring and directing creators brand-side to building her own UGC business.
You'll learn what UGC is, how it differs from influencer work, what brands look for, where to find paid opportunities, how to price your work, and how to build UGC into a flexible side hustle around auditions and bookings.
If you're looking for another way to make money using skills you already have as an actor, this class is for you.

Questions
-
The decision was made to shift focus toward empowering actors through guidance and mentorship rather than simply representing them. The ultimate goal: to guide actors toward becoming paid, working professional actors with representation. Mentorship, done right, is more powerful.

No. Many students enter without any of those things — building your materials package is part of what we cover. You need nothing except a willingness to show up and do the work.
-
We get it — life happens. While sessions are recorded, recordings are not distributed. Instead, that's exactly what your community is for. Your cohort and private Facebook group are there to fill in the gaps — ask your fellow students what you missed, get caught up on discussion topics, and stay connected between classes. The community is part of the program, not an afterthought.
-
Classes are held via Zoom. A link will be provided to enrolled students before the first session.
-
All sales are final once payment is received — spots are limited and held on a first-come, first-served basis, so please review the semester dates carefully before enrolling.
