"This class was most helpful, especially for those of us beginning to navigate through the Chicago market. Thank you for making all this knowledge accessible." -A. Cash

"I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed Lindsay's workshop on Sunday.  I liked that she brought in different headshots to show the difference between a good and a bad headshot, and she did a great job of explaining what to look for in a headshot when looking at the work of different photographers.  She also spent time talking about scams; how to spot them and how to avoid them.  In addition, her advice on how to submit to agents, when to sign with one, and when to go union was invaluable.  I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking to begin expanding their acting training into an acting career."
