Post a Commentstop the BSing guys, especially those who are promoting their own schools, like Act of hollywood, The worse school on the planet, just take money from Foreign students. Search Eric Morris, he will change your life
I had the best experience working with Kirk Baltz at his Actor's Intensive Studio. www.actorsintensive.com
I highly recommend trying it out!
I audited a small and different kind of class last Monday nite in the Noho district called the Immersion Experience. The teachers name is Otis Bell and his approach was to take the class thru the "Tools" of acting and break them down to such a level of common sense that I walk away from there with a feeling of wow, this makes this thing called acting a lot easier.
If you are looking for a place to grow I think this is something special.
Hi, I am from Zurich (Switzerland) and want to shift from here either to L.A or London to do a professional acting course. Though I am not able to decide which place would be better to be based at if you want to have a career in the films? Can anyone help? Thanks

Hi, I'm an actor from Australia and have researched the top 20 acting schools in Los Angeles. The best training that I have come across in 20 years of acting experience is "The Berg Studios" headed by Gregory Berger-Sobeck. www.thebergstudios.com check it out. He has an MFA from Yale school of Drama and his teaching is beyond exceptional. Teacher & students are extremely genuine and supportive and all about the work.
The LA Acting school is best acting school
We think that your school is the best in LA, hands down/two thumbs up! Now there's a visual!
