Lauren is a true professional and a great coach and teacher. I just completed the REEL Auditions class. I received great training and tips especially for online auditions which really applies now during the pandemic. Her experience as a casting director and actor gives attendees especially insightful information. I can’t wait to take more classes with her and her team.

Being a part of ClassAct changed my world! I couldnt have asked for a more supportive environment or a better group of friends. My confidence has soared!

The absolute BEST acting academy for adults and an amazing taping studio for auditions! This isn’t the “oh acting seems fun and easy, let me try it to see” this is the “this is my dream and I want to study with the best to become a professional and make a career out of this!” kind of studio. They are 100% invested in your success, will teach you everything you need to know, believe in your talent and teach you with a passion because they truly love this industry. The amount of knowledge you’ll get from a casting perspective is priceless. I wish I would have started studying in ClassAct years ago because I would be so much further along in my career right now. But when I needed to take my acting to the next level— ClassAct was there. I recently graduated the Reel Foundations class, I tape frequently (practically weekly before this pandemic) and have had the personal manager session with Lauren. ClassAct courses run a tight ship, they expect the best from you as a student because they are training you to be the most professional and disciplined in the industry. I could go on forever talking about how amazing ClassAct is. If you really are serious about this, if you know there is nothing in this world you would want more than to be an actor— sign up at ClassAct and start your journey here. It’ll be the beginning of your amazing career! :)

Lauren O’Quinn’s and Landon Price’s work ethic and unwavering attention to detail reinforces my decisions as to why I wanted to make ClassAct Studios the foundation to my acting career. Their consistency, commitment, and disciplined approach to the craft is why I keep coming back; it’s why I strongly recommend them to all of my acting friends.

Really impressed with ClassAct Studio. I needed a quick, clean self tape and ClassAct was fully prepared to help me out. The studio responded to my e-mail timely and the self tape setup was beautiful. The reader Chris gave great notes and was an excellent reader. Thank you ClassAct!

This place is awesome. Talk about value. They have the lowest cost for the most hands on information. Great taping, great classes, and I highly recommend the one on ones with Lauren. What you get out of the hour is EVERYTHING. Im in Jacksonville now and still consider making the drive.

I have been an acting student with Class Act Studios for almost three years. I cannot recommend this studio enough. The instruction is absolutely top notch and the studio is geared toward not just teaching acting, but creating working actors. It is the most respected and sought after studio in Florida and I remember how excited I was just to secure a seat in the first class, Foundations. Although I am in my mid forties and came into this studio with zero acting background, Class Act instilled confidence, discipline, and a sense of belonging in the industry. You will be taught by the highest caliber teachers and held to the highest professional standards so come prepared to work but also to learn and have fun. Also do not be surprised if the process of becoming an actor makes positive changes in your day to day life outside the acting world. This studio will not only provide you priceless tools, but also there is a very good chance it will provide you with a deeper understanding of yourself and others.

If you’re serious about acting as a profession, this is the studio for you. If acting is your passion and you’re just looking to practice and improve your craft, this is the studio for you. If you’re just starting out and have no idea about the industry, this is the studio for you. You’ll learn the art of acting, but you’ll also learn the business of acting. You’ll learn about the industry in depth which is something I have not found offered at other studios. Jenna Fischer states in her book, The Actor’s Life, (Great read btw), “A good acting class is about stretching, learning, and discovering in a safe, nurturing environment. There should be no shaming, no forcing you into things that make you uncomfortable. It should provide you with lots of performance time and constructive feedback.” ClassAct will give you all this and more. The teachers here truly care, and they have established a community where there is so much knowledge, talent, respect, encouragement, and support. With this studio, you’ll be offered everything you need to be a professional working actor!

Amazing studio with incredible, experienced, and knowledgeable teachers that truly are invested in every students growth. The classes are fantastic, they truly will shape you into the best actor you can possibly be- and the staff also teaches you about EVERY aspect of the business from headshots, to agents, to auditioning, etc... their self taping services are THR BEST! So easy to schedule online, you receive top notch coaching during your session and are promptly emailed a labeled, professional quality tape. Can’t recommend this studio and team enough!

Lauren and Landon at ClassAct studios have guided me since day one of my foundations class. I went from a complete newbie in the industry to unlocking parts of myself I never knew I had. Their Meisner based training and scene study is intense but necessary for anyone wanting to work in the film and tv industry. I now have an agent and have been to multiple commercial auditions and have starred in several short films thanks to Lauren and Landon’s coaching and recommendations. I am forever indebted to them and I continue to learn every day I show up to class. They are very nurturing and will work with you at your level so you can grow at your own desired pace.

You will always leave bettering your skills and training.

I couldn’t begin to describe how INCREDIBLY grateful I am to be a part of this studio. I don’t know what I would do without Lauren and Landon; they are both amazing and I’ve learned pretty much every single thing I know from them.

This place is the best, and teachers are the best “ta-boot!” and not even just acting, they are good people, that’s why they have so many actors learning f there. the teachers will do more for your soul than just acting and That alone goes far!

I was referred to ClassAct Studios by several friends that are working actors. I finally decided to take the plunge and sign up for a seminar, The Business of Acting. It did not disappoint! In fact, it was more than worth the money and the amount of information I learned is invaluable! Lauren is highly versed in the industry as I’ve heard and as I now know first hand. Thank you, ClassAct and Lauren for an incredible seminar! I look forward to the next one.

I went to two workshops at this studio; The Business of Acting and Voice Over Workshop. Both were absolutely invaluable to my acting career.

I cant wait to start taking classes here.

Review №33

Its a nice and cute little place and although I understand everyone needs to make a living, this place is just there to take your money. You cannot even speak or contact the teacher without her charging you and they rarely answer the phone. Even if you miss a class, they try to sell you into doing other things they charge. $65 just to speak with someone for an hour? They gave good tips but not something you have to pay for! Do your research big time prior to paying for anything and many people get paid to write good reviews so be careful!!!

ClassAct Studios is such a wonderful studio for actors to study and maintain their craft.

Review №36

This place is the absolute worst. The so called “coaching” during taping...still waiting. My kids have taped here several times, and all times were horrible. They didn’t even ask what was supposed to be happening, didn’t ask for a script, nothing. They will tape ANYTHING and take your money. Rush jobs, just garbage. There is no wonder why this place is always available for last minute takings when other places are not. Truly a last resort kind of place, and even then they’re still worse than the alternative (not auditioning at all)No, I definitely have the right studio. My kid was taping. Obviously I’m not using a real name to protect my child. It was your studio, and your place is terrible.

Class Act Studios provides a positive and safe environment to explore the emotions necessary for a scene. Acting sounds easy on paper, but its more than just memorizing lines and avoiding bumping into the furniture. Finding the truthfulness in a scene takes practice and encouragement and youll find both here.

There is too much to say why ClassAct Studios, is the best. Lauren and Landon are truly amazing teachers in everything they do. I had to push myself to pursue this class just because i get so nervous when i think of auditions or acting infront of people. I can say 100% that ClassAct, has given me way, way more confidence then I thought I would ever have. They teach you how to breathe life into a character so it becomes your own. BEST DECISION I HAVE MADE.Thank you, Lauren and Landon.

Class Act is a fantastic studio. I have grown and furthered my acting with guidance from Lauren OQuinn. She is able to guide each student through their areas of need in acting, no matter how long you have been in the field. She is gifted at knowing what will further the truth of the scene, which truly is the purpose of acting. Lauren also shares her knowledge on the business of acting which is equally important. You need to both have the skills, as well as business prowess to truly help further your career. Class Act Studios gives you both the acting and business knowledge that allow you to develop as an actor and pursue your career to its fullest possibility.

Ive been studying at Class Act Studios for over two years and prior to that was acting professionally for over 13 years. Class Act took my acting to another level. Lauren has helped so much with my technique, my craft, and most importantly, she has helped me understand the business. Within months of studying under Lauren, I booked my first episodic television show quickly followed by another. She has taken my career to the next level and I highly recommend Class Act Studios to any actor wanting to pursue their dreams.

Class Act offers top notch service at an affordable price. The taping service is quick and affordable. The classes offer a great introduction and continuation of Meisner along with scene study. (I tried to update my last review and accidentally deleted it). There are classes for teens and Adults and the classes are tailored for both. The studio also focuses on the business of the industry (even offers a workshop), which is highly beneficial.

Ive been in Class Act for over 7 years and it was the best choice Ive ever made.

Ive learned so much about the business of acting that has helped me further my career.

After studying with Lauren for two years my knowledge of the business, facility with dialogue, auditioning skills and craft have developed exponentially. Lauren is smart, quick and insightful. Her ability to diagnose a scene and make it better has to be seen to be believed. She cares about actors and creates a safe environment for us to strip away presentation and live truthfully in imaginary circumstances. My first time on a TV set was far less intimidating because I was so prepared. Thank you Lauren!

Im no actor. Literally. Ive never auditioned, never been booked, never performed... Never even taken a class. Im a writer interested in directing, so I thought itd be helpful to know something about acting. This school not only gave me the insight that I wanted, but it was a nurturing place that really helped me grow as an artist. They even helped me to see that I also have potential as an actor (who knew?!) If youre looking for a safe place to study, learn, and grow (no matter your level of experience) I HIGHLY recommend ClassAct Studios!! Tell em Monique sent you .

Class Act Studios is a very special community of people who care deeply about the craft of acting, about striving to improve at the skills that are important to being and growing as an authentic actor, and about each other. There is a wonderful camaraderie here among the students because so many have been training here for quite awhile. They are a very open, friendly and talented group. This type of environment is created under the watchful eye of Lauren OQuinn Burns. If you are new to acting and serious about getting your feet firmly planted, you will get honest guidance, truthful and veteran insight about the industry, and a coach that cares to see you better yourself. If you are a seasoned actor, your edge will be sharpened by Laurens skillful tutelage. You will be encouraged in your strengths and made aware of your areas of improvements. It is truly a wonderful place to learn and grow, a safe environment to explore and push your boundaries and the tuition is extremely reasonable!! Do they give 6 stars??

The devotion Lauren O’Quinn Burns has to her students and to the craft of acting is amazing. You will not find another more gifted teacher than Lauren. She is not just a teacher but a full time actress and a very good one at that. Her instructors that assist her in the classes are far and above some of the most talented actors and actress around and share her love of the craft. In short this is a school you need to attend if you are serious about your acting growth and wish to improve.

If I could give 1,000 stars I would. There is no better feeling than knowing that the people who are teaching/working with you ACTUALLY CARE! Lauren and Landon truly make you feel comfortable, but not just by patting you on the back. They will validate your decision with every question you have about your progress and the industry as a whole. I met with Lauren last year through one of her private coaching sessions (which I highly recommend for anyone who is even thinking about acting and just wants to talk.) Since then, I just finished their Foundations class and never once did I regret my decision.Thank you to my ClassAct family!Good luck to anyone reading this, and hope it can help you get one step closer to what youre looking for!

I have been to many acting classes and workshops in Orlando. This is by far the best. I have been an actor for many years, but learned more in a short time with Lauren than I did with a degree in theatre. This school focuses on not just teaching classes (which are great) but guiding actors through their careers. Lauren has shaped the careers of many actors now living in Orlando, Atlanta, Louisiana, Los Angeles and more!Actors have called her Guru and The Script Whisperer because she has a true gift of breaking down the script and seeing things that most actors never would have thought. She is well respected by casting directors in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Louisiana and Los Angeles.She also teaches workshops that you cannot find anywhere else. Many people in the southeast teach |The business of acting without knowing the business. Lauren has been an actor, a teacher, a casting director for feature films and commercials and an agent. Her background makes her more than qualified to help actors on this journey!Dont believe me? Ask one of the MANY actors in this market that are working and contribute their success to the studio guiding them all along the way.

As a working actor, ClassAct Studios has helped me take my career to another level. Not only has Lauren OQuinn taught me how to trust my instincts and refine my tools as an actor, she has made all the difference in how I manage myself in the business - both my brand and my strategic goals. I cannot say enough about the growth I have experienced in the year and a half I have studied with her. This is a real studio for real actors.

Review №79

ClassAct Studios is by far the BEST acting school I have attended. I have studied at some of the top acting schools in NYC, and they dont come close to all I have learned from Lauren at ClassAct Studios. Laurens super power is the ability to analyze and break down a scene in a way thats unparalleled. You learn by her tailored instruction to each student, character and scene. She teaches technique, but she also teaches the business side to help you become a WORKING actor. She has the unique advantage of knowing the business from all aspects since she is not just an actor, coach and teacher, but she also works in casting and has previously worked as an agent. She knows what it takes on every level, and she wants to teach it to you because she has a genuine love of teaching. The camaraderie at the studio that is fostered by Lauren creates a safe environment for learning and exploring and to help you reach your goals. If youre a beginner, she will teach you technique. If youre a professional, she will help you push your boundaries. I cant say enough great things about this school. It is amazing and I highly recommend it.

Starting classes at ClassAct Studios was the best decision I have ever made for my acting career. ClassAct is now my second home and my classmates and I have become one big supporting family.I am in such awe of Lauren. She is hands down the best teacher I have ever learned from. Incredibly intelligent, funny, tell it like it is type of woman whose mere presence demands respect, and is so knowledgeable not only about the skill of acting, but also about the business side. I thought I knew what I needed to know about the business side of acting; after speaking with Lauren I realized I only knew one-fourth of it. She is someone you want and need in your corner! Landon is an amazing, amazing actor and teacher and makes you feel at ease with every challenge you come across. I feel so honored and blessed to have been able to learn from and watch these two. The skills they possess make me so inspired to get out in the world and work. I have been pushed out of my comfort zone, challenged, and taken to a complete new level thanks to ClassAct.If you are looking for a teacher or program to tell you what you want to hear or to stroke your ego, then this studio isnt for you. But, if you are ready to take your career to places you never thought it could or needed to be and if you are ready to rip down your walls, get vulnerable and put everything into your craft while showing what youve got and learning from others every single week, then I highly suggest you go to ClassAct Studios. My biggest regret is not coming here sooner. I am so excited for the next class!!Elena Sharae

Its rare that you find professionals in this business who truly look out for your best interests and constantly encourage you. Lauren and Landon do that and SO much more.

The feedback I get from casting directors on a scale from 1 to 10 is never anything less than a 10 with Laurens tapings.

I can’t say enough good things about ClassAct. My kids have worked with both Lauren and Demi. They’ve helped my daughter book 2 major tv shows and my son book his first film! They’re kind, patient, and SO knowledgeable. In fact, Lauren actually knew the casting director for the last tv show that my daughter did so well that she was able to give her some inside tips that I know helped her book the role! I highly recommend.

ClassAct Studios is the place to go for quality tapings and quality acting classes. I’ve taped here eight times and have referred another actor here for tapings because they are so professionally done. During the taping process, I received valuable, in-the-moment coaching from a skilled reader (professional actor) whose reading helped me perform at my best. I would never go anywhere else! After just finishing the Reel Foundations 12 week acting course, I feel more confident in my acting abilities and have learned a lot of tools to help prepare me for future acting opportunities. Most of all, this class gave me what I have been looking for: scene work and performance feedback. The support and professionalism experienced at ClassAct Studios are just what an actor needs to grow in this tough industry. Lauren and Landon were amazing and caring acting teachers who made the whole experience fun and worthwhile! I highly recommend ClassAct Studios!

For anyone just starting off or anyone who has been in the biz, this is a great place to train your skills and get all the necessary information on how to further your career. Lauren has worked on both sides of the industry as an actress and as an agent. Meaning the knowledge that she has learned throughout her career, she shares with you. There are many studios out there who are in it just for the money, Class Act Studios is more focused on quality actors and growing the tv/movie industry here in Central Florida. Come join our family!!!

Lauren and Landon truly know the business of acting because they are in it. Laurens skill set is way beyond any other acting class Ive ever been in. She knows the ins and outs of the industry and can guide you and help you from head shots to financially planning your acting career. The classes are well timed and structured and its not just scene after scene. You do exercises and work through your scenes with your partner and really get to the nitty gritty.After college I thought I knew everything there was to know about acting and didnt need classes. I was wrong! Class Act Studios has taken my career to the next level and Im now being submitted for TV shows and movies like Ride Along 2, and the The Walking Dead.

Lauren has helped me learn the craft and the business. I recommend ClassAct Studios to those who are new to acting, but I also recommend it to veterans who want to keep their tools sharp. If you are serious about acting, this is the school for you.

As a working actor in the Central Florida area, I wanted to study in a studio that would create a safe place to work on my craft. Lauren OQuinn provides such a place for working actors. Class Act Studios gives actors a strong Meisner foundation and helps us create a process for commercial, film and television work. Many of the actors who study at Class Act are actively auditioning and working on major projects in the southeast region (Miami, New Orleans, Atlanta, Central Florida) as well as Los Angeles and New York. I highly recommend Class Act Studios for any actor who wants to work on scene study and for the many workshops on voice over, auditioning and industry business knowledge.

I have been studying at ClassAct for a few years now. In class I am surrounded by working actors and am consistantly challanged and trained to be more present, more truthful, more prepared, and smarter. I cant recommend the teachers or the method enough.

Lauren and Landon are amazing teachers. They truly care about their students and want them to grow as actors. Lauren has extensive knowledge of the business and teaches you how to be a working actor. ClassAct also provides excellent quality audition tapings, personal manager sessions, headshot selection sessions, demo and voiceover reels, and more!
