Let great happen.
I SEE YOU
It's easy to feel like your hard work doesn't matter. You feel inspired, you create, and eagerly anticipate the response of your peers, friends, family and possibly even fans. But how do you get there?
While Austin, Texas has always possessed swagger when it comes to the performing arts, it's also gaining traction as a location of choice for the film and television industry.
What has been missing is a chance for screenwriters to see if their vision comes across to an audience before submitting to studios, agents, festivals and competitions. What has been missing is a chance to hear and see trained actors bring their story to life in a professional setting.
​
I SEE YOU provides that setting.
I SEE YOU Productions is an industry service for actors and filmmakers, providing casting, workshops, coaching, and screenplay readings. It was created out of a need expressed by local screenwriters and playwrights who didn't feel confident submitting their script for production without at least being able to hear it out loud, see a cast behind it.

"Kat has been the most thorough and inspiring consultant I've worked with during the years I've sought professional critique of my scripts. When I received her indepth and insightful analysis of my stage play, I asked her to critique my screenplay, and her analysis was just as comprehensive and insightful. What I appreciate most about Kat is while she is positive by nature, she is also honest. When an artistic director or film producer gives my work a serious look, I believe it's due in large part to the valuable, industry-based feedback Kat provides."
- C. Holmes (writer, A Bridge in the Distance, and Contraflow)
Kat stressed the importance of building relationships between characters, which led to unexpected choices in the delivery of my performance.
~ Cast Member, Cages
Simply put, working on my play with Kat Sparks improved it immensely, Not only did she generously share her experience and knowledge, she also definitely raised the ante--and helped me produce my best work.
~ K. Maloney, A Ferryman's Daughter
Kat's insight and direction enlarged our work and brought resonance and authenticity to each scene.
- Cast Member, Cages
Kat is the most intuitive director I've ever worked with. Her process allowed us to experiment initially as we found our way with the character.
~ Cast Member, Cages
My approach to a role is entirely different now than it was before I started working with Kat.
- Student, Private Coaching
As a result of Kat's unique stage and screen skill set, she brings a unique approach to scene study. She knows exactly how and when to push actors to the fine edge of character discovery, whilst allowing them to cross the threshold.
~ Cast Member, Cages
I truly believe that I will approach most if not all of my future roles differently. ~ Cast Member, Exit 27
Kat challenged me to do some of my best work as an actor. Period. ~ Cast Member, Cages
Kat creates an environment where you feel free to make the most unexpected choices as an actor. I’ve grown immensely not only as an actor, but also as a person and I couldn't be more grateful for that.
~ Cast Member, Exit 27
Kat taught me there is so much more to developing a character, and through this I’ve gained a greater understanding of myself.
- Student, Private Coaching
Kat has an ability to guide you in finding not only your character, but the relationships those characters have with each other and as a result, the relationship your character has with the audience.
~ Cast Member, Cages
Kat has a knack for making that one suggestion that transforms the entire scene. ~ Cast Member, Cages
Kat’s style is unique and unlike any other director I've worked with in my years of doing theatre.
~ Cast Member, Exit 27
Through her script and character analysis, Kat provided me with the key that helped me unlock the depth of my character, her intentions, and her importance to the story. I had never gotten so deeply connected to a character before and every performance allowed for new discoveries to be made. I wasn't simply playing an emotion, but living the life of my character. Even the slightest gestures and facial
expressions were driven by the authenticity of what a young girl my age would be compelled to do. The intensity of each scene began to flow naturally the more we worked on the character development together. Kat helped erase the fear factor that I felt as an "actress" approaching the role and in place helped create a truthful fear that the Outsider felt with each situation that was thrown at her. ~ Cast Member, Exit 27
