Reviews and Comments! -Thanks

I really enjoyed the class today. I learned a lot from Mr. Reynolds and Maceo WALKER. VERY interesting on how the business work and mainly how to act. Also had fun doing monologues and the scripts. Everyone was friendly and everybody did a great job during the performance.Thank you for having me

Everyone in class seemed ready to learn and the instructors information was GREAT!  I really picked up different techniques that have been immediately helpful in scene study and monologue work.  Maceo was great!

Dear Mr. Reynolds,

Thank you for helping me take the first steps in the entertainment industry.  Thus far you have proven to be professional, kind, encouraging and very knowledgeable. How nice it was to meet your professional staff today - Brian and Janet!   I do believe that I have stumbled upon the very best entertainment agency in the country.  I anticipate wonderful opportunities in the future for myself and perhaps my soldier husband.   I look forward to learning a lot from the upcoming training day and appreciate the chance to fulfill a lifelong dream.

May your success continue.  Thank you. 

Best regards,

Ellen Stepat

Ladder of Success

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding on a plan on how to go about achieving that plan. I see people all too often that want to begin near the top rung on the ladder when actually they are barely on the first.

Hone your Craft

Unfortunately there are a lot of wannabe actors that think that they will be discovered. Once a director of some sort sees them, the wait is over, they are on their way. However this simply is not true and most likely will not happen in this lifetime.

Most successful people in just about any job or vocation have spent time, energy, effort and yes money to learn and hone their craft, whatever it may be. That does not mean that you run out and sign up for some modeling school or some talent showcase, where you will be discovered. No it does not. Spend a little time and do some research. There really aren't that many real agencies or companies that 'will' be able to help you.

Good luck,

William Reynolds

Making room in Atlanta!

Tyler Perrry recently purchased the old Fort Mcpherson Army base to partially convert into a new film studio.

So far only a portion of the 30 million purchase price of the 475 acre base has been paid.

Mr. Perry says the property is a 'mess' right now and that the base was partially used as a hospital and sort of

a dumping ground for some believe 'toxic' materials. The property will undergo a lot of testing which could take

as much as a year to make certain that there is no harmful lingering substances on the premises.

And then look out Atlanta, more resources for the our burgeoning film industry.

Learn from your mistakes!

Everyday we have decisions to make. So, learn how to make them without regret or remorse. You will undoubtedly make some bad ones, everyone does.

The 'LONE RANGER' movie starring Johnny Depp, produced by Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer, lost almost 150 million dollars.

But in retrospect they are two of the most financially successful individuals in the history of the film industry, with moves and TV earning them billions of dollars on TV and at the box office. I don't think they have very many regrets, do you?

So, you as well are going to knock a few home runs along with that occasional bad decision. It's what's in the end that counts.

Good luck to you all.

Advice for Women

William Reynolds says that this is 'sage advice' for women but will without a doubt work for the male sector as well,  Many aspiring actors and models procrastinate, can't make the decision to take that first step. Some always find an excuse, a reason to put off til tomorrow what they could have done today.

At our agency those that make that decision, do what they are asked and required to do "ALL WORK IN THE MOVIE INDUSTRY".

Many new talent give up. Why? Because they did not posess the proper skills to begin with. Did little in the way of gaining thses skills and then got discouraged and dejected.
