Testimonials

This class exceeded my expectations! I felt safe and encouraged to take acting risks. Christy (Arington - Level 2) gave great direction which enabled each of us in the class to grow as actors.

Sarafina (Vecchio, Level 2) was amazing! She always gave the best feedback and encouraged us to challenge ourselves.

— Atavia Reed

Janelle (Snow, Camera 3) helped me to strengthen my skills in front of the camera and taught me a lot about the Chicago acting scene. Her knowledge is so beneficial and she knows exactly how to bring out the best in each individual.

Jack (Bronis, Level 1) is fun, helpful, smart, talented and provides great feedback while allowing students breathing room to express themselves. It's a very welcoming environment and it's clear Jack loves what he does.

Christina Gorman’s Level 2 class was phenomenal. She had amazing insight on the industry and her feedback was incredibly helpful. Not to mention she is so fun and hilarious, and she made the 3 hours zoom by. Two thumbs up!

Lots of mic time, great direction from a working professional  (Brad Grusnick, Instructor) in both animation and gaming voice acting. You’ll not only learn a lot from your time in the booth, but you’ll learn by hearing the feedback from Brad to other students as well. Highly recommend!!!

This workshop (Brad Grusnick, Instructor - Gaming & Animation)  was everything I wanted. There was plenty of material to prepare, cold reading practice was exciting, and the teacher (Brad) was incredibly accommodating. I received direction on creative choices and insight to what casting directors look for. Brad matched the groups excitement for getting into the booth and getting work done. I am looking forward to the email announcing a more in depth course.

"Griffin had his very first audition for a commercial this week and he now has a callback!  He is very excited and said that he wasn't very nervous because of what you (Charles Andrew Gardner, Instructor - Grades 3-5 On Camera Technique)  taught him in class. Thank you."

"Chicagoland actors who wish to get a heads up on basics (and beyond) of what to expect when auditioning -- and booking -- a Guest/Co Star role in TV, they'd do well to take ASC's "Nail The Guest Star Audition" master class with Jerry Kernion!"  Isabell Bernard

— Isabell Bernard

"Jerry Kernion's (Instructor - Nail The Guest Star Audition Workshop) vast knowledge of the industry is exactly what Chicago needs.  His empathy coupled with a pragmatic coaching style engages the actor to get out of their own way and deliver. Despite being a day-long workshop, the time flew by.  Jerry's 30+ years in the business is an incredible asset for local actors.  I highly recommend this class."
