      CGTV, under the guidance of **************************, offers a remarkable platform for budding talents in TV, film, and entertainment. As a high-level program, it provides a unique opportunity for aspiring actors to connect with the industry. What makes CGTV stand out is its comprehensive approach towards not just training but also preparing participants - both children and parents - for the realities of the entertainment industry.Having enrolled two talented girls in the program, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of preparation and professionalism exhibited. CGTV goes beyond just teaching acting skills; it prepares participants for the actual workings of the industry. The program's standout feature is the creation of professional-quality reels, which alone justifies the investment. These reels are not only a showcase of the talents' skills but also a vital tool in their career advancement.CGTV excels in offering a personalized experience. Each showcase is intentionally designed to ensure that every participant gets their moment in the spotlight. This individual attention, especially in a field as competitive as acting, is invaluable. The children are allowed to perform in various skits, allowing them to display a range of their abilities and versatility.Another commendable aspect of CGTV is the ****************** professionals. The program brings in A-list level individuals, offering an unparalleled opportunity for participants to interact with, and learn from, those who have successfully navigated the entertainment industry. This access not only provides insight into the industry but also helps in building a network, which is crucial in this field.CGTV is an exceptional program for anyone serious about a career in TV, film, and entertainment. The investment in the program is worth it, considering the professional reel, industry exposure, and comprehensive training provided and realistically prepares them for a career in the entertainment industry.

On how thank full i am for this previous opportunity . which you have gave me i am aware if this one in a life time opportunity which i previously just had with my daughter .******* first time being in a showcase with **************************the. The energy ****** has to be able to teach and be patience with the students is incredible never seen before. also the . Our family invested for the vip package which was the best choice for ******* all the options it has fits perfect for ****************** ****** with his team did a fantastic job like i said before and say again never seen before his team worked with each indvidual they would rotate on the students in the class . At first i was nervous on how my daughter would feel on being comfortable .Once we let ******'s staff know how our daughter was feeling they would make her feel comfortable right way every time she would start each class. To our family it was a great experiance that we had family bonding and traveling *********** . Of course thats not what we went for it was for the show case . ****** know exactly how to show the students to express them selfs .the show case we attended was the greatest thing that ever happened we were so excited before and after due to the fantastic job ****** did with our daughter . The part i liked the most is ******.

      CGTV was a lifechanging program for my 8-year-old daughter and for our entire family. My daughter recently attended *** *** program in *********** and she had *** time of her life. We were initially nervous and did not know what to expect however *** program exceeded our expectations. ****** and his celebrity coaches and ****** *** program director went above and beyond to ensure *** program participants received more value than in my opinion we paid. The experience was truly priceless. They were able to unlock talent and potential in my daughter that my husband and I could have never imagined possible. We made contacts with industry professionals and received top notch trainining and knowlege that we would have never gotten without this program. I have nothing negative to say about this program and could not be for grateful for *** who experience. ****** is an amazing teacher and he deeply cares about those kids. I'm still just in awe of how awesome *** whole program is. Thank you so much to ******, ******, ****, ******, ****** all *** coaches who worked with my daughter, ***, ******, *****, ***, and ****. You guys are phenomenal!

      This is an exceptional program. ****** is very hands on and extremely knowledgeable. The celebrity coaches were top notch. The progress my daughter made in just one week while being in the program was impressive. If given the chance go for it.

      My granddaughter ***** attended CGTV ** with *************************. ***** was teamed up with ******** on the first day (orientation). ****** couldnt have matched up a more perfect duel; ***** and ******** bonded with an everlasting relationship, and both grew as a great team during training in ***********. Not only did these girls bond, so did the family members from both sides. We had numerous lunches, dinners, and shopping together while the girls were in training and after training, they were inseparable. We want nothing but the best to happen for both girls in the future their hard work and dedication speaks for itself and the guidance from ****** and his team. All the children in attendance were phenomenal. Thank you, ****** and CGTV team for the hard work and skills you instilled in both girls (especial for smart and smartest). Also, to CGTV Staff, coaches (***, ****, ******, ***) thank you for putting up with two peas in a pod, ***** and ********. If I missed anyone, please know you are appreciated.My advice before attending read all emails coming from CGTV take notes and be prepared for hard work, long hours, but have FUN. Last minute changes can happen, but overall, everything worked out smoothly.Also, hard work and dedication doesnt stop after training it continues. Follow ******* after showcase instructions and you cant go wrong. Be patients nothing happens overnight

Skys the limit. ****** and his staff are very professional and passionate about helping all their clients become successful. I recommend CGTV to anyone who wants to work in this industry. Thank you ****** and the staff at CGTV. Mahalo.

      We registered our daughter to be apart of the *** Program, she participated in her first showcase in ** in January of ****. Initially we were very apprehensive going into it, she had not done much acting prior but she's danced since she was four and loves being on stage. She wanted to pursue her passion of acting and after through research we decided that CGTV's program was the best way to do that. We received multiple emails with links to training videos created by ****** instructing her on how to prepare for the showcase so when we arrived she felt prepared and confident in her ability to perform the tasks assigned. To my surprise she learned the lines for her scene within the first couple of days and worked the remaining days of the program to perfect it. She received training from professionals in the business and one on one instruction from ******. For the first time ever she was able to meet other kids who were all as invested in pursuing their acting passion as she is. She made so many friends and genuinely enjoyed her time at the showcase. I saw such an improvement in not only her acting but her overall confidence, there is no way to duplicate the things she experienced in any other setting other than the safe and caring environment created by the CGTV staff at the showcase. As a parent, I gained so much insight into an industry that, prior to attending, felt so intimidating. I learned so much from ****** and will be forever grateful for the knowledge I gained at the showcase. Doing the * & A with the previous actors that graduated the program, the agents, and ****** himself was so essential to understanding what we're getting ourselves into. Not once did I feel that anyone we spoke to was not being genuine. I felt that all of the guests speakers were really speaking from their experience and doing their best to answer all of our questions to help us to gain a better understanding of the industry. I am forever grateful to ****** and the CGTV staff.

      I’m located in Bay Area and auditioned for the program in Burlingame. I was the oldest participant (and the only one over 40 I believe), yet I got the same attention and positive attitude. I joined this program in a hope to inspire my daughters and I’m glad that I did.
      Through the program, not only that I got to be trained by professionals, but I also met such inspiring young adults, teens and kids – it was a joy and true inspiration to be amongst them! There was no moment when I haven’t wished to share this experience with my daughters.
      We were divided into groups and each person in the group got to experience personal time with the coach and collaborative acting workouts. Our coaches were so passionate and engaged throughout the program, that their enthusiasm was contagious.
      Besides training in acting, we also got so much practical information about the industry, about what to expect if we wish to proceed further with acting career, the do’s and don’ts of in person and virtual auditions etc.
      When the program ended, we continued being supported and were given a roadmap of what to do next and were given assignment to practice our audition skills.
      I came to LA with my friend who came to support me. She said that she could see how my monologue got better and better after every day and how polished complete it was at the final showcase. Unlike other classes I took before, this workshop instantly put me on the next level with preparing for auditions and with auditioning.
      Regardless of whether you want to be an actor or not, it is a life-changing experience that I would recommend to everyone, and if you decide to try it – I endorse this program as it felt so great to me.

      CGTV is a professional training program with great experience! Adrian & his team of actors/actresses took great care of our children and was very professional. My daughter and I had no experience and we were unsure at first, but we chose to go to LA this past summer (2023) because she really enjoyed the open call. We're so glad she did. She had great exposure and a lot was explained during the Q&A sessions. They only thing they asked is to make sure your child try to remember their lines (they pick 2 commercials or monologues) you just have to follow the directions to be prepared when going to the week long program or even just for the shorter ones. They get exposed to real talent agents and managers. My daughter attended the next CGTV program in Hawaii and to me, she got even better. She got more call backs. We'll see where it leads her. Even if she didn't want to pursue it, she found out a lot about the industry and the steps to take to succeed if she wanted to. There are videos and tips on CGTV website that explains the next steps like cold reading, self tapes, etc. It has been very helpful and I have not a clue what to do next as we're going through the process of call backs. Adrian had been great! All I can say from what I experienced is It takes time and practice and especially parents help to get their child to the next step/level. So if your wanting to see your child's potential, If your spending the money, make sure they're prepared. Go there to Win!! Thanks CGTV and Adrian! my daughter's looking into becoming a lifetime member.
