THE BUZZ...

"As a filmmaker, The Actor's Gym is a remarkable resource for discovering actors that work very hard at their craft. I watched every single one of their fully-produced scene videos while casting Down and Dangerous."
-ZAK FORSMAN,
writer/director
Sabi Pictures

“Luis creates a safe environment for actors and then, with expert and subtle guidance, brings out their strengths and empowers them to give powerful and nuanced performances for the camera. He is gentle, yet firm, knowledgeable and extraordinarily insightful as director and teacher. I highly recommend The Actor’s Gym for all actors.”
-ANNE NORDA,
Writer/Director &
Moviemaker Magazine Columnist

"This is the best on-camera class I've taken in LA or NYC. Luis is brilliant, empowering, and wise. Being a masterful actor himself, he has a wonderful way of speaking with actors in an inspiring and affirming way . The structure of the class creates the perfect environment for exponential growth. My work has grown leaps and bounds since I started taking here and unlike many other classes, I have the footage to show for it. The production quality of the scenes that we shoot every week is top notch (miles above any of the student films I've done in LA - and unlike student films you don't have to hunt down the filmmaker to get the footage), the editing is high quality, and while I'm honing my acting skills all the time, I'm also becoming an expert at mastering new material in a short amount of time, managing scene preparation on set, and perfecting my ability to nail a scene in one take. Something I love about this class too is that the other students are fantastic, I find myself learning from them constantly. I highly recommend this class to any actor aspiring to up their game in a big way!!!"
-STEPHAN STUBBINS,
Actor & CFCA student

"Luis has been an amazing resource to me in all aspects of art, business, and life. He is an amazing mind, a skilled technician, and a truly generous artist. Seriously -- you rarely find someone this gifted."
-DESEAN TERRY,
Actor & CFCA alumnus
