“I am a working, trained actor and I have also done the whole spectrum of voice-over work for 25 years. I needed a new set of skills.
The skills they teach and the individual guidance in the class is phenomenal. It is a very high, professional standard – even beyond in fact as the teachers are industry people who work in the industry themselves at a very high level. Each class has something new and exciting to teach where you are encouraged to throw yourself in at the deep end and are directed beautifully through the delivery process in class while in the recording studio. Constant gems are thrown in on how to think through the endless choice of characters while developing them on the spot – even during class we see immediate results on characterisation layering.”

“The teachers I had were amazing and I love them to death! Since then, I’ve had several profound opportunities at the beginning of my acting career, such as opportunities on Riverdale, Charmed, Lifetime TV , and FX Network, which have served as significant building blocks for the future! Nothing but pure love for the teachers, Michael Coleman, and my absolutely amazing experience here!”
