FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much money can a person make doing commercial work?
Many people are surprised to learn that one national commercial can pay from $10,000 to $50,000.

Don't you have to be young and beautiful to work?
Many people get commercials confused with modeling. In commercials, all ages and types are needed. Our successful graduates have ranged from darling four-year olds to seniors in their 80's. Most new students are people who feel good about themselves, and have always had the desire to explore some area of performing. Gordon Jump did not begin an acting career until his late 30's and there are many who have started later than that.

What kind of guarantees or placement promises do you make?
No legitimate school will promise a job as a result of their training. Learning to act is an art, and unlike beauty colleges or computer repair courses, no one is ever "placed" in a job.  In much the same way, a music teacher trains someone to play the piano, MMA trains students to audition for work in commercials, film and voice-over.  Although we do "Showcase" (audition) our students in front of two SAG agents, there is no guarantee of being chosen, ……but the opportunity is there….and many of our students are "picked up" by an Agency. We also provide much guidance in the audition process and teach how to successfully audition for work..  Success comes after training and persistence.
