TOM LINDEN-MCCARRON
Screen & Voice Over
My main career focus is to enable actors to find and feel adept in sourcing as much work as possible and, I believe that comes in the forms of digital media.
Acting for Screen
I worked as an actor for several mainstream TV series and independent feature films and commercials before moving into the world of directing and screen coaching.
I have coached & directed numerous independent productions as well as currently working for internationally renowned institutions. I also offer one-to-one sessions for screen performances, auditions, text prep and rehearsals. (All sessions are available in person whether that be on set or in the rehearsal room and online).
Voice Over Coaching
I still work as a voice-over artist and continue to coach voice-over artists as they prep for studio performances, and auditions as well as create new reels. I currently use the process of text analysis to enable actors to find their signature voice when approaching a voice-over script, whether it be for animation, games, commercials, documentaries, or audiobooks.
I am currently working for...

Tom is one of the best facilitators I’ve come across. Beyond his knowledge regarding screen and mocap, it is his ability to communicate his ideas with clarity and accessibility. Tom is the definition of a modern pedagogue, entrusting his students to play and experiment and find their own way. His eye of movement on screen liberates the actor in identifying what is they are doing and the effects this has on character and on how the audience perceives them.
Iman Bahmanabadi FILM DIRECTOR 
Tom is a passionate, encouraging, and dedicated teacher. Tom has a depth of knowledge from many years in the industry and transfers this knowledge to students in a digestible way.
Zoe Mavrides Actor Trainer & Coach @Royal Central School of Speech and Drama 
My students found Tom engaging, energising and informative. His expertise as a professional actor provided them with exercises, they can act on both immediately and long term in the rehearsal space.
Kris Darby Senior Lecturer at Liverpool Hope University 
I always go to Tom for any voice over auditions and mocap prep, he’s got such brilliant methods, and you always leave full of confidence for the job.
Hannah Wood Voice Over Actor Artist 
Tom is a great teacher and I have had the pleasure of working with him in the training room, he puts so much effort into his teachings and gets great results from students.
JANE PERRYBAFTA Award Winning Voice Over Artist & Mocap Performer 
I have had the pleasure of working with Tom over the past year and a half, and I am constantly amazed by his skillset and ability to adapt. His demeanour when teaching provides a fun yet challenging environment for students, and he brings his vast experience into every instruction. He is a brilliant teacher, coach, actor, and most importantly a fantastic person. Couldn’t recommend him enough.
Jared ScottACTING COACH 
I had the pleasure of being directed by Tom in the Bitesize Breakfast Show up at the Edinburgh Fringe for The Pleasance. Tom brought a huge amount of energy and inventiveness to the room which made day to day rehearsals really enjoyable. He adjusted and honed my efforts delicately and with a great deal of respect; Tom was a colleague rather than a dictator. The story and truth of the piece was always his priority and his focus and commitment in that regard produced an excellent standard of work. I would jump at the chance to work with Tom again, I am very proud of what we did together.

Working with Tom as an actor, I felt entirely supported, encouraged and safe in Tom's hands. His calming focus, preparedness and clarity of vision really got the best performances out of us. The rehearsal room was a creative, collaborative and wonderfully fun experience. He is an asset to any production.
