A few months ago, I took Megan Foley Marra and Chuck Marra's one day commercial class because I wasn't getting too many commercial auditions with them.

I REALLY enjoyed it. She and Chuck taught a lot of stuff that Mike (HISYC) and Killian don't cover as well as stuff relevant to film/tv as well. Actually, they're now in my top 3 maybe even top 2 of commercial teachers.

I think John Sudol is overpriced and full of shit. He's trying to turn acting into a science by placing importance on ones facial expressions. We DON'T think about our facial expressions when we have normal conversations! So why should we when we're being filmed? If you are thinking about that shit, you're self aware and will have trouble being a truthful actor.


I looked on Megan and Chuck's website. Is the Friday class $200? Worth it?

I did the Saturday 9-5pm class for $150. I thought it was worth it and if you think about it 4 2-3 hour classes are $200-300. The Saturday class is like 2 classes


After navigating their website for a while, I couldn't find their Saturday class option anywhere. Did you hear about that class from them or something?

Megan and Chuck have two sites-a real one and an outdated one.

Here's the real deal:

Truth, do you recommend Megan & Chuck's Intensive in addition to HISYC and Killian's class or in lieu of?

If you're new or just don't know jack about the business side of acting, then at least level one of Mike's (HISYC) class is a great place to start.

After that, Megan or Killian. Or if you can afford it, both.

If you want to be a better actor overall, Megan's class is great for BOTH theatrical and commercial. Killian gives you a more simulated audition experience.
