“I only wish I had done The Savvy Actor when I first moved to LA. In a sea of classes, most of which did not provide value to my career, this is a MUST. Start here.”
- Dr. Miluna Fausch



 

“They give you the tools you need to be successful, then they give you what you need to continue that success – a really killer support system to answer any questions, clarify information, and really help you do what it is they’re teaching. The great thing about being a Savvy Actor is that the training really gives you what you need to take the bull by the horns and make your career exactly what you want it to be.”
- Greg Barnett

 

 

“Since implementing the Savvy Actor course, I was in two movies, booked a print ad for DSW, got a new room mate to help me stay within my acting budget and met with a commercial agent. All of this was done in 2 weeks from applying the techniques learned from the The Savvy Actor!”
 - Christopher Blake




“Having been in the business for about 30 years, I found ‘The Savvy Actor’ MBA crash course to be one of the most helpful, informative, instructive practical and pragmatic courses I have ever taken. In this day and age, this is as important as any ‘Acting’ class. If I had known about these ‘business’ skills and practices 20 years ago well ……… you know the rest!”
 - Paul McGrane




“I’ve been remiss in reporting that 3 weeks after I studied with The SAVVY ACTOR, I booked an episode of an HBO/Cinemax series. They flew me to Bucharest for it. Specificity people. Love it!”
 
- Sean Galuszka
