Anyone ever taken a class with this guy?

I think that the person whom you are referring to is a woman.

oh okay, I apologize... I only saw a name in the advertisement. Have you studied with her ever?

I took her class at AC last year and enjoyed it. Good if you've never taken a commercial class. We covered stuff that you just don't cover in any other type of acting class, like the "Bite and Smile," and presenting the actual product you're hawking. While I was taking her class, I presented a spot we'd worked on for a separate commercial showcase and landed freelance representation with a well-reputed agent. This is not to say that you'll get representation because you take her course; I'm saying I had a good grasp of what she taught and was at the right place at the right time.
