Has anyone actually done John Casablancas school of modeling/acting and succeeded?
It's my dream to become an actor but never really thought it could happen till I found out about John Casablancas school of modeling/acting. I allway like to research something before I do it, for example P90X; it works and I lost 15pounds in 3 weeks!!! I want ACTUAL RESULTS FROM ACTUAL PEOPLE WHO WHENT THERE. I want factual stories from real people and NO answers from people who havent done it and that means you ELDARODO. I'm not stupid, I know that acting and modeling is a VERY compeditive business so most of you will try to scare me away so you can have no copetition. I got an interview and told me they will call me back in two months (now 1) and they told me to loose as much weight as possible ( now 245 and used to be 260 thanks to P90X ) and also that I will most likely have to cut my long hair otherwise I won't find work. That doesn't sound like they except just anyone PS I'm not bad looking compared to the 1000's of people I see at Mardi Gras (and yes I live in Louisiana) each year but I think they will improve me and make me above average. I believe that some of you would also write bad comments because maybe you couldn't get in. I am 6 foot 1 and very big in size not fat. I weigh 245 and I should be around 212. Im 17 and male with long natural blond hair. Now to review ONLY ANSWERS FROM REAL PEOPLE!!!

There's nothing like answering poorly stated questions all dressed up as statements that take the preemptive strike of weeding out answers that they know they won't like.



ELDARODO is not your competition, nor has he ever in his answers told someone to NOT pursue the industry. On the contrary his answers like those of Theatre Doc are quite detailed on how one would go about pursuing and giving themselves the best shot at succeeding in the industry. The problem is, the answers aren't easy, they require a lot of hard work and don't line up with the delusional fantasy many wannabe actors daydream about.



So you went into Casablancas and they set you up nicely for the slam dunk sale because you really believe that you must loose some pounds before they will take you. I can name half a dozen reputable acting coaches and classes that would simply start about the business of training you as an actor and if there's any recommendation to lose weight, it would be because your continued good health will demand it. There are and have always been overweight actors working in Hollywood from the late John Candy, Chris Farley and John Belushi to current stars Mo'Nique and Gaboury Sidebe.

some youngsters have said the school was very good, but Casablancas has a terrible reputation in the industry and really is an overpriced and impractical way of becoming an actor. do a web search of "John Casablancas Scam" and see what you learn.



Now being fat is in right now with the popularity of "Precious". One of my advisee's just auditioned for a film that is looking for heavier girls. I tell my students that they have to learn to love themselves as they are. If they later make improvements, then they can love that new self as well. But you cannot depend on what you are going to be or going to do in thie business. It is who you are right now that counts/

I realize your case fully and feature noticeable it commonly earlier than. I owned a modeling college for eight years. You can consult with my internet site and it kind of feels to give an explanation for matters effortless adequate. Just do not rush into some thing, there's well and dangerous circumstances.
