After taking class with TV director/producer Tom Verica, Amy BOOKED a role on his new Netflix series!
Rosco was called in and SIGNED with top Southeast agents Dawn & George Landrum after meeting them in an Online Private Appointment.
After attending the Online Agent Panel, I was called in by THREE different agents. I SIGNED with Master Talent Agency.
“Signed a really good guy last time. And the time before I signed 3 actors, 2 of which are working, one being Isabella Oliveira who now recurs on the new SELENA series on Netflix.” – Manager Mitch Clem
“I participated in Andy Roth’s VO Class in December, and it was incredible. One of the agents he brought in for the Showcase (Jason Sasportas from Stewart Talent) connected with me after, and we have begun a working relationship. Just awesome.
Thanks for providing the “space” for us to workout our craft during this whole mess. Y’all rock! ”
I loved the classes we had in person at the LA location and was so hesitant to try them online this past year (I think as many of us were) but it was INCREDIBLE. My favorite was a three weeker with CD Jenn Presser. The third week she gave me a scene with a character from Claws (definitely not something any other CD had given me before). It was so fun to be pushed but also to be seen. I love being connected with actors from the East Coast and overseas.
I think David Vaccari’s class was one of the most specific & helpful that I have taken. David really teaches you how to break down a tv/film scene, how to use camera angles, how to delineate your thought process in your prep – and helps you keep your acting human – how to be your true self mixed with the script. He has an actual technique that he teaches! And he makes it all happen in a non-stressful atmosphere. He really wants all of us to do our best! Don’t miss his class- I will take it again just because I enjoyed it so much!!
Patrick was called in and SIGNED with New Mexico agent Carissa Mitchell after meeting her in an Online Private Appointment.
After the Atlanta Trip, I signed with Privilege Talent. Through them, I auditioned for a Supporting Lead in a studio film, a Supporting Lead in a Cable TV mini-series, and a Co-Star on a network show. We’re also continuing our relationship while I hustle in NYC. Atlanta truly is a self tape town.
After attending the Online Manager Panel, I received interest from three managers, then met and SIGNED with 3G Entertainment. So thankful to Next Level for the format especially the 1-minute pitch.
