"I would like to pass on how much Ella enjoyed the Acting for the Camera course over the last two days. In Ella's "lingo" Sarah (Oldmeadow) was so nice and so cool!!!!!!!! Could you pass onto Sarah a very big thankyou as Ella had a great time and I think has taken away some valuable points."
~L De Santo: School Holiday program

"The course rocked! I'm sad it is over. We had a great group and all got along like we had known each other for years...like-minded I suppose. I have wanted to do this course for such a long time, and now am so so so glad I did! The fact that the course has an actual PLAN to get us work is what sets it aside from other courses. I am looking forward to seeing my show reel and sending it out into the world of TV. Great teachers, great course, and great students!"
~ M Barone: TV Presenter Course

~ M Lorenzio: TV Commercial Auditioning

"The knowledge I feel that I have gained has given me much more confidence to now tackle anything that is thrown at me." I look forward to participating in more Courses at Brave Studios in the future.
~ J Gallacher: TV Commercial Auditioning

"I felt the course really increased my confidence in relation not only to TV commercial auditions, but auditions in general. Maria was so friendly and supportive and demonstrated that casting directors aren't necessarily scary monsters, but that they also really want you to do well in an audition."
~ S Berryman: TV Commercial Auditioning

"Nadia is an exceptional teacher. She has a style that is easy to listen to & her knowledge & passion for acting shows. She is encouraging & supportive to all her students & it is a pleasure to work with her & soak up some of her expertise."
~ A Rogers: Scenework Essentials Intermediate course with Nadia Townsend

"I wasn't really sure what to expect as I've done a couple of other 'auditioning' courses where you basically got 5 minutes with a casting director and very little feedback or opportunity to ask questions, and I really got nothing out of these courses at all. I had heard from a friend who had done the auditioning course at Brave that it was much more beneficial so I thought I'd give it a go, and I'm really glad I did. This course was much more informative, relaxed and fun!
