To Tony,
I have to say this is the best acting site i have EVER been to. I'm sure you have helped many people begin their dream! I've helped in advertising your site to over 38 of my aspiring actor friends. You are doing an amazing thing by helping these people. I wish you the best in your acting career so that you may be a role model for all those who look up to your sucess.

Anthony,
Happy New year to you. I really enjoy your e-mails and your website. As someone who has just started the journey of becoming an actor I enjoy your site which is full of wonderful insights and answers to questions I have had, and it's funny but it seems as though every time you update your site, it answers a question I have been struggling with at that point.

Thank you for your website, you have helped me a lot as I know you have helped numerous others.

Have a wonderful 2008 and may you break a leg in everything you do this year as an actor.

Sam T Kelly, actor, Los Angeles, CA

Tony,
I did what you said and…I got two interviews with two agents! Thank you! Sorry but can I ask you…how do I prepare to go meet the agent? What do I have to do?

Tony,
I just wanted to let you know that I copied a quote of your's and I'm putting it on my refrigerator when I move to L.A. this next week. Thanks for the continued encouragement to all of us trying to achieve our goals. Keep up the good work.

Best,
Kyle S., actor

This site has taught me a lot that I needed to know without dragging me all over the place.

Acting Schools In LA And Hollywood

The following is a list of acting schools in LA. While I cannot speak for each one of them, I have heard talk about most of the schools on this list in a positive light.

If you are new to the business of acting and are considering moving to LA, just make sure you do your homework and try and understand the market, think about how you will make ends meet and how you will be able to steadily increase your knowledge of the business. LA is a beast and can be very intimidating and have you feeling very isolated if you are not prepared. New York on the other hand is a great place to start acting for a number of different reasons. Perhaps the most important one is it is known that New York actors are well respected in LA, for the training they receive on the east coast and for the experience they generally bring with them.
