CONSULTS
Comprehensive diagnostics of headshots, resume and on-camera performance by Dean Armstrong to pinpoint what works, what doesn't and layout the critical next steps to ensure transformative results.
I started working with Dean and Armstrong Acting Studios in 2005. 17 years later his Studio continues to discover, build and launch International Film and TV stars. Dean’s about as good as it gets. The training offered is both relevant and practical. Actors who work with him get work. It’s that simple. I am thrilled for his success in Toronto and know that the opening of his new Studio in Los Angeles will be unparalleled.
