"Your acting career must be motivated by your own
unique self-expression and if there is absolutely no other choice -Annie Chadwick Here is what actors are saying about Annie's Workshops:I took Annie's Sunday afternoon workshop
at Drama Book Shop a few months ago while visiting New York during a run at the
New York International Fringe Festival, and still think it might very well have
been the best $50 I've EVER spent on myself, not just as an actor, or an
out-of-town actor, but also as someone who was happily reminded of what a noble
profession we are a part of. Yes, noble! Because Annie's generosity not only
extends to the almost overwhelming amount of materials she gives you (i.e.
different examples of resume formats, lists of photographers in multiple price
ranges, trade papers and gobs and gobs of resources) but also to her obvious
love of the craft of acting. It was, frankly, a somewhat exhausting experience,
but that's only because she is giving you a tremendous amount of information in
a comparatively small amount of time, and she does it so WELL! And do be sure to
get there early for the one-on-one with Annie, because that is when she takes
the time to look at your headshot and resume and offer her invaluable
suggestions. And even if she is telling you that your headshot is not suited to
you, she makes a case that is hard to refute. A very, VERY smart and astute
woman. Annie, considering I have been at this
acting career for a good while I'm embarrassed to tell you I learned tons at
your seminar. You were wonderful. Let's talk about me working with you. I'm so glad that I signed up for your
workshop because in just a few hours I learned more about what steps I need to
take than I've learned in the whole six months that I've been living in NYC. I
would love to sign up as your client and continue to receive your guidance
one-on-one. I just love working with Annie! At her
intro workshop I felt like I left with lots of great information and a specific
direction. She actually took the time to address me and my specific situation
one on one. I had taken several of these workshops but no one else made me feel
like they cared about me and my career. Her passion for truly wanting to help
people succeed just shines through her. I couldn’t wait to work with her again.
Her career coaching really gave me a clear vision and specific steps to get
there. The effects were instant and ongoing. Hey Annie, Just wanted to say thanks
again for all your help yesterday, I feel like I learned more about the acting
business in those two hours than I had previously learned over the past year. I am a total fan of you, your private
coaching, and your workshop. I came to Annie's workshop hoping to at least get
some decent info for $50. What I came away with was not only worth the price,
but much more than I had hoped for. Annie is genuine, goes out of her way to not
only make you feel special, but to really give you that extra individualized
attention which is completely unexpected, but absolutely appreciated. Her
workshop was not only chalked full of relevant and useful information, but she
added something that I did not expect to find there...hope and inspiration. What
a truly fabulous workshop! I highly recommend it to anyone who is beginning
their career or feeling like they are at a stalemate here in New York! I sincerely thank you for your Sunday
Workshop at Drama Book Shop. You are wonderful .You really are helping the
consciousness of the artist to go out there and be just that, an artist and more
able to implement the business. Yes, that is "Huge"! God bless you for it. How
refreshing! I needed this in my teens and twenties...The students need to really
appreciate what you are showing as it is priceless. I would love to work further
with you as to what you think my specific marketability may be. Continued
wonderfulness always! I just wanted to thank you for taking
your time in sharing your views and experiences in what was an informing and
inspiring workshop that really got into the depths of my aspirations,
motivations and needs. In all honesty, it was such a pleasure to meet you and
witness your caring and genuine nature. As you know from our brief exchange, I
feel I am at a pivotal point in my career I can't tell you how much of a
blessing it was to hear words of positivity and reassurance at such a time. Your
non-condescending angle, warm aura and uplifting attitude really set a spark in
the positive possibilities that I too believe in. Thank you for your excellent seminar. I
came away with so much great information, and I so appreciate you speaking with
me afterwards. This was welcome sunshine at the end of a hard week -- I had to
say goodbye to my acting class, so I was a bit down. Thank you for your
kindness. You are such a generous and loving spirit. With much thanks! I took your career building workshop
yesterday. I wanted to drop you a line to say how thankful I was for your
advice, attention, and for all the wonderful information you gave us. It was so
awesome! I was so energized and excited after the meeting that I felt hopeful I
could indeed pursue this career on a professional level. I feel like I have a
clear-cut focus for how to approach the next six months and I feel awash in
relief! Where to put your time, money and energy in your acting career feels so
overwhelming, so it was nice to get some solid, practical advice. I’m so glad that I was able to make the
seminar. It was jam packed with vital information. You were well-organized,
professional, experienced, joyful and very sincere about giving everyone as much
info as possible for a 2 hour seminar. I think you well imparted the seriousness
of the business. I will call you for a private consultation. Annie, You are wonderful!!! Thank you so
very much for your enlightening workshop. It is so good to see you doing
something you love with such passion and helping other creative artists move
forward. You are inspiring! Wish I knew about you or just a few of your pearls
of wisdom years ago. Thank you so very much for such a
wonderful workshop last weekend. I loved it and loved your positivity and
commitment to sharing what works in building a career in acting. I've already
hit the ground running and am using your handouts and tips everyday. I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your wonderful workshop on
July 13th at the Drama Book Shop. I found your workshop to be very informative,
helpful, and organized. I feel as though I walked away with a better sense of
how to tackle the area of self-promotion, possibly consider new headshots, and
how to, in general, "think out of the box" a bit more. . . I also walked away
with an improved "can-do" attitude, which is challenging to maintain sometimes
in this business. I also really appreciated your down-to-earth manner and the
level of attention you provided to those who asked questions during the workshop
and to those who waited to ask questions after the workshop ended. Lastly, I
think the best part was that we actually walked away with materials in hand! I
know these will be helpful materials to add to my list of resources! Again,
thanks so much for your time, advice, and feedback - - it is much appreciated! I recently attended your workshop, "How
to begin an Acting career in NYC" at the Drama Book Shop. First, I'd like to
thank you for your passion and enthusiasm. It was obvious from the first words
out of your mouth that you love what you do and this is ultimately the
motivation behind my message to you today. Although I have recently moved to NY
from CT and have only been a member of SAG for about 6 months, I believe l have
kept myself busy and built some decent momentum between extra work, featured
background work, some stunt work and a leading theatre role over the course of
this year. That said, the theme I took away from your workshop is identifying a
certain focus in this maze of an industry and allocating one's resources
accordingly. I believe I am at this point right now and would like to meet with
you in the near future in order to assist me in this process. I look forward to
meeting with you soon. Thanks for your time. Annie, thank you for a terrific workshop
at the Drama Book Shop. It was wonderful of you to share such a vast amount of
information with us. I will be in touch with you soon for a private career
consultation. Looking forward to working with you. Annie, thanks for a wonderful seminar!
I'm going to put your information to use this month and see what I can make
happen. You are such an asset to the NYC acting community. I'll spread the word. Hi Annie, my name is Sheila and I met you
today at your workshop at the Drama Book Store. I really enjoyed listening to
you. You are indeed a good career coach and I would love to work with you. I
believe that I have finally found the right person to help me with my ACTING
career since moving to NYC from South Africa. May GOD BLESS you and keep doing
the good work cause you inspire me to work hard and get good results. I will
call you next week for a private consultation. |
