With special guests and mock interviewers from the entertainment industry, you won’t get a better introduction to Hollywood and all its strange quirks.

This program is best suited for individuals trying to break into the Hollywood entertainment industry, especially those interested in “traditional” career paths that primarily include but are not limited to Film/TV production, writing, producing, and creative development. We will be giving you the tools to land and succeed at entry level positions. While some of the skills we’ll be teaching are applicable to cities like Atlanta, Chicago, New York, the focus of the program will be what to do after moving to Los Angeles.
