About I-inspire Acting

I-Inspire Studios is developing an acting department where our dancers and all other styles of talent have a comfortable space to exercise their gifts and acting skills. Located in Atlanta, Georgia, we offer acting classes, workshops, audition taping, coaching and more available to all ages (age groups are specified on the individual class descriptions). We aim to make acting training and resources affordable, engaging and in-depth led by working actors, directors and coaches. Our goal is to provide our talent with market-leading instruction and experiences in pre-production, production and post-production. Georgia is the third largest destination for the film industry in the United States. Hundreds of local film projects for distribution companies like Netflix are bringing thousands of jobs to Atlanta. I-Inspire recognizes these opportunities and wants our talent to be prepared to audition and book. Visit our schedule and sign up for our next class, workshop or event!

Patrick Walker

Co-Founder, Coach

Patrick R. Walker is from Jacksonville, Florida and currently resides in Los Angeles, California. Although he was brought up in one of the roughest neighborhoods in Jacksonville, his negative surroundings motivated him in a positive way. He dedicated his life to staying committed and focused on his dreams of becoming a positive role model, actor, writer, and producer. Walker is racking up an impressive resume in numerous television shows, independent films, and theatrical plays. One of his most honorable accomplishments was being selected as one of the winners of the 2015 ‘Team Oscar’ Competition. As part of this great honor, the six winners delivered Oscar statuettes to celebrity presenters at the 87th Academy Awards® on Oscar Sunday, live on ABC. He is most known for his work as a lead, recurring actor on ‘The Resident’ on FOX, ‘POWER’ on STARZ, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ on ABC and ‘The Quad’ on BET. His heart is with his peers and he is dedicated to providing a comfortable, unorthodox yet effective space where actors can exercise their talents at a place they can call home – The Booking Room ATL.

Travis LaBranch

Travis LaBranch is an actor, known for acting in the film ‘Pas Honteux’ created by REVOLT and the drama series ‘Shots Fired’ on FOX. Travis has a rich background in music and the performing arts as a drum major, in which he transferred those skills to teaching students in The Booking Room ATL to let go and be fearless on stage! The Booking Room ATL gives working actors just like himself a place to train and gain knowledge about the industry. It wasn’t until he attended college and took up acting class as an extracurricular activity for school credit and discovered his calling for FILM/TV. He began acting in Houston,TX but soon moved to Atlanta, Ga in 2014 where he landed several television roles, quickly becoming SAG/AFTRA eligible. After four years of consistently working in Atlanta, Travis decided to move to Los Angeles, California and continues traveling back and forth between LA and Atlanta, Georgia for work within the film and tv industry.
