Testimonials

The (Getting Started In The Biz)  workshop was amazing! Marissa (Paonessa) is a fountain of knowledge and hearing her perspective and insights as a talent agent was invaluable. She was warm and funny and it's clear she cares about actors. The class was really well-structured and thorough, while also providing us with ample time to ask any and every question we could think of. Seriously the best $50 I've spent. 

Many, many thanks to ASC for hosting these workshops and for always providing actors with top-notch instructors.

Jennie Moreau (Level 2) is a great instructor. Her feedback is actionable and tangible. She created a safe environment to inspire us to try new things. The principals and tools I've learned have not only helped me to be a better actor but have helped in my interactions during my daily life. I can't recommend this class enough!
