He also consults for directors, productions, and networks, to ensure both individual actors and entire casts rise to the occasion of their best performance possible.
With over a decade of talent representation under her belt, Taylor Trumbo’s professional career has been immersed in the world of entertainment. Growing up dancing and cheerleading competitively in Dallas, Texas, she knew early on that Los Angeles was the place to pursue her dreams of working in the entertainment industry. She attended California State University, Long Beach majoring in dance and communication studies. Immediately upon graduating, she obtained agency representation as well as an internship working in the dance department at DDO Artists Agency / Movement Talent Agency. After dancing in commercials, video games, theater productions and her favorite gig, Glee, her industry passion evolved from being in front of the camera to behind the scenes. A year in, she was offered a full-time position and quickly worked her way up the ladder which led her to director of the On-Camera Commercial and Theatrical division at Bella Agency. In 2019, she made the decision to open up Evolve Artists Agency and continues to submit adult talent commercially.
I’ve worked with him for four years. He’s passionate about what he does, and it makes us passionate. We’re a family. ZBS is a community…a second home
Whenever I get a script I always ask myself, WWZD—What would Zak Do?
During the camera tests and throughout rehearsals and filming on my Netflix series, “Julie and the Phantoms”, Zak’s work with our young actors provided them with the tools that enabled them to accomplish outstanding work. If I didn’t know better, I’d swear he was a magician
Zak speaks the language of the soul and is able to stir his actors on the deepest levels of artistic and personal transformation.
His connection to his students is unlike anything I’ve seen…the work is incredibly brave
Zak Barnett taught me to love my craft. Before I came to the studio I loved acting and I knew it was all I wanted to do, but I didn’t know why. I found myself in a place where I was giving good auditions, but I wasn’t feeling fulfilled. Going through his classes allowed me to find my own wants and meld them into one. I learned to love the art of acting and find joy in making something special, something only I could create.
He’s made a lot of impact and a lot of change… I cannot recommend him enough!
