A native of Metro Atlanta and a graduate of The University of Georgia, Carol's previous careers were in finance and sales. As a former owner of a mortgage company, mortgage banker for the megabanks, a sales and operations manager, and even a Charter School founder, she was always focused on the business sector. Carol was not active in the entertainment industry until she became a mother of two fantastic daughters and their interest in the Performing Arts became a love of her own. It was then that she became passionate about serving and leading acting coaches, actors, and parents of actors. She was the Studio Manager of an award-winning acting school for 7 years. It was her mission to educate those on their acting journey by providing the very best in a professional studio with the necessary acting tools to do so. After working closely with the Studio Owner, Casting Directors, Talent Agents, Acting Coaches, and Talent, she wanted to broaden her passion for putting talented actors to work! She decided to take her entertainment career to another level and expanded her role to that of a Talent Agent and most recently, the Owner of her own talent agency, Carol Shaginaw Talent Agency. Her background in the entertainment industry for the past 11 years and her business mindset has led her to much success in booking talent for many projects including Film, TV, Commercials, Print, and Industrials.

Total Agent Prep

The Ultimate Workshop to Win Over Agents and Elevate Your Career.

Landing representation isn’t about luck — it’s about preparation, positioning, and execution. Total Agent Prep is an intensive, four-part in person experience designed to evaluate and enhance the three critical factors every agency considers before signing new talent: who you are, your acting craft, and your professional online presence.

This isn’t just another class — it’s a career-level audit of your entire actor package, guided by a reputable Film/TV agent.

What You’ll Experience

• Live Elevator Pitch: Present your personal pitch directly to top agents and learn how to instantly showcase your unique personality with confidence.

• Prepared Scene Performance: Perform your strongest two-page (or shorter) scene — no theatre pieces — and receive direct, actionable feedback to sharpen your craft on the spot.

• Actors Access Profile Review: Have your profile reviewed live for maximum impact, with guidance on headshots, clips, and online presentation to attract casting opportunities.

• Self-Tape Review + Strategy: Receive expert feedback on your self-tape to ensure you’re presenting at the highest level possible.

Exclusive Access & Format

• Limited to 12 actors for individualized attention.

• Ages 16 and up.

• Homework assignment delivered five days prior — including your self-tape and materials — to replicate real-world prep and allow agents to give the most meaningful feedback.

Wrap-Up Q&A

Conclude with a comprehensive Q&A session, where you can ask industry, craft, and business questions directly to the agents and walk away with a personalized game plan to elevate your career.

Why Total Agent Prep Is Different:
This workshop goes beyond surface-level tips. It immerses you in a real-world audition and evaluation process — the same process agents use when deciding who to represent. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to position yourself, present your materials, and approach agents with confidence and clarity.
