    I came here around 2020 before covid, and IT IS NOT WORTH SPENDING $3K, DONT FALL FOR THEIR SCAM. Here is what they do when people come in for their first time:
    You go in for a "tryout" and if they see you look good or have a small level of confidence and money, they will sell you a program of classes, about 20 weeks, that you must take in order to even get a chance to model and do acting with them through their "referrals" which are practically not existent. During the time that you are taking classes, they send you to these "opportunities to make money" to display your acting/modeling skills, but then those promoters charge another $5k to to "promote you" with no guarantee of results. These group meeting with these lousy and loser promotors was very disappointing and after each of those group meetings with the promotors, EVERYONE THERE FELT THE SAME WAY, WE ALL FELT LIKE WE WASTED OUR TIME COMING TO THESE EVENTS WITH THESE PROMOTERS.
    ALSO, IF YOU ARE ACTING/MODELING THROUGH JOHN CASABLANCAS, THEY TAKE 30 PERCENT OF YOUR EARNINGS. AND THOSE JOBS BARELY PAY YOU MINIMUM WAGE! And I know JC is going to try to justify themselves with "you need to build up your resume", and I do agree however not for $3k-$10k. So I paid THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO THIS PLACE AND THEY DONT EVEN SHOW MANNERS OR RESPECT TO YOU, THEY TREAT YOU LIKE YOU ARE A NOBODY, JUST EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM MAKES ME WANT TO THROW UP.
    My advice to anyone reading this review is to spend a good day or week on ******* to learn to become a model and actor and do it on your own, there's so many good ******* channels that give you BETTER INFORMATION FOR FREE and you will save yourself money and aggravation. It makes me laugh at what John Casablancas responses are to these negative reviews on Google, it really shows you how unjust, greedy, and unprofessional they really are, I bet their going to say my review is a lie, in which I don't care what they think, because THIS WAS MY EXPERIENCE HERE AND IT WAS TERRIBLE.
