I have just completed Stephen Mitchell's six-week Branding Seminar...



I have just completed Stephen Mitchell's six-week Branding Seminar. I would be remiss if I did not share with you the following:

Stephen Mitchell's Branding Seminar is phenomenal. If you are serious about putting yourself in the position to get noticed by the people in the film making business, you need to take this seminar, period. In this seminar, Mr. Mitchell will completely change your paradigm about auditions. He will work with you on monologues, using the "Action/ReAction" technique. This technique will truly enlighten and amaze you. Moreover, Mr. Mitchell's smooth and relaxed delivery providing you this essential acting and audition information, removes knee-knocking intimidation and instills you with new confidence. You'll see! It doesn't matter if you have been an actor for 10 years or 10 minutes, you WILL benefit from this seminar. Do yourself and your career a BIG favor, take this seminar. Thank You again Mr. Mitchell.
