Hello,
My name is Courtney and I took Kristens class for the first time this past
Saturday.  It was an awesome experience.  Honestly, I learned more in one day
about how to come across in an audition that I did in an 8 week class.  She is a
lot of fun and offers a lot of knowledge.  I never once read anything regarding
the commercial class that led me to believe that you could not shoot any
commercials after this one.  I would love to take the commercial class this time
around but unfortunately, finances do not allow me too.  But, you better believe
I will be in the demo reel class coming early 2010.

You're great Kristen!

Courtney

Hi!  I am very sorry you found this upsetting.
Just to clarify, this commercial is not a SAG commercial and therefore it does
not make the actor ineligible for any other restaurants, nor is it a conflict
for other spots.  It is just a fun way to utilize the skills that will be
learned in class that day.  And students will get some tape if we use their
clip, to do whatever you like with.
I understand that there have been some scams and/or shady opportunities offered
to the local actors.  I can assure you this is not one of them.  If anyone has
taken a class with me, Kristen Shaw, or has taken a workshop through
Blueprint4Hollywood , I would love to hear your feedback.  From what I have
seen, everyone leaves feeling like they got a great value for the  time and
money they invested.  Many of our students sign up for multiple classes.
If you would check out my website and my IMDB page (links provided in original
email), I think you will see that I am very credible. I am recommended by People
Store Agency, Hot Shot Kids, Sister Ent, as well as being the Official Acting
Coach for Meetup FilmAtlanta, Atlanta Girls Magizine, Je'Caryous Johnson
Productions, and others.  I have many recommendations from Hollywood Directors
and Producers, as well as other actors, on my site.    If you would ever like to
audit one of my classes for free, you are more than welcome to!  I'd love to
have you.
Happy Holidays!  Hope 2010 is filled with blessings---

Let me see if I understand this...

I can learn about acting in commercials, the bread and butter for many actors,
and appear in an actual commercial which will make me ineligible for any other
restaurant commercials as long as it runs.

And for this you're paying me...

Oh, no, I'm paying you!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

In the history of network television, only a handful
of people have been 'multi-hyphenates',  writing,
directing, producing and playing a role in the same
series.

Bob Fraser has done it twice.

First with the hit television series, Benson, where
he was the writer/director/show-runner and played
Benson's nemesis, Senator Leonard Tyler, for six
seasons.

Then again in a show he created and starred in for
NBC: Marblehead Manor, co-starring Michael Richards.

As a director, Bob has guided Oscar, Emmy, Tony and
Obie winning actors in both theatre and television -
and has hired 1000's of actors in his role as a TV
and theatrical producer.

Bob has written extensively for television and the
theatre - with over 2 dozen produced plays and 100's
of hours of television series.

His computer-based acting career courses; You Must Act!
- Nail It! - Headshot Secrets and The Agent Code have
been utilized by 1000's of actors, performers and models
- in dozens of countries all over the world.

Bob's a member of Actors Equity Association, SAG, AFTRA,
Writers Guild of America (w), Directors Guild of America,
Producers Guild, Academy of Television Arts and Sciences,
and The National Thespian Society (ret.)

Let me see if I understand this...

I can learn about acting in commercials, the bread and butter for many actors,
and appear in an actual commercial which will make me ineligible for any other
restaurant commercials as long as it runs.

And for this you're paying me...

Oh, no, I'm paying you!

The first thing you should teach your students/suckers is to run the other way
when someone offers them a deal like this!
