Any actor knows that to successfully play a role and accurately portray the part that they have been selected for, they must conduct a certain amount of research and spend time with real life characters whose persona they are attempting to replicate in a motion picture, TV show, or play. This includes learning the mannerisms, verbiage, quirks, body language, and movements of the people who actually live the life that the actor intends to portray.

Bannon Institute of The Arts and its affiliates continually recruit and maintain a network of professionals from many walks of life specifically for this type of specialty service.

We incorporate Neuroscience Concepts to economize how the actor’s brain retains skillsets and information that can be easily recalled when needed. We incorporate cohesiveness within the body, mind, and spirit of the actor for a three dimensional integration of thought, expression, movement, and passion.

Below are some of the projects that Bannon Institute of The Arts has been retained for - screenplay consultation, character study, and on set technical advising. “Tears of the Sun” starring Bruce Willis. “Olympus Has Fallen” starring Gerard Butler. “Shooter” staring Mark Wahlberg. “Dexter” created by James Manos. Joe Bannon has also appeared as a guest on The “Phil Donahue Show” and was featured on an Emmy Award winning episode of “CBS 60 Minutes” with Mike Wallace before he retired from law enforcement.
