"First and foremost, I would like to thankyou for such a fun class. Truthfully, I've received more information about the industry from you (Hester Schell) in the 8 week session than over the last 5 years that I've been acting. I like the fact that you bring great acknowledge to the class and was able to share them with us without additionalcharges. THAT'S A BIG PLUS! I will definitely recommend

" I wouldn't have had the confidence in my SAG feature audition without the extra push from you, Hester. I booked it! You give constructive criticism and honest support; and for that, I am grateful. I am now SAG eligible, and on my way in the right direction. Thank you!"

SF School of Digital Filmmaking

"I want to take a moment and thank you so much for your website...This weekend, thanks to audition info from BACN, I'm participating in a delightful film shoot directed by a very talented young SFSU student.  The big surprise is that the other 2 actors are L.A. pros and friends of his family! I'm very lucky.. wouldn't have known about it were it not for your website. "
Best wishes,

If not us, who?  If not now, when?
The pile of garbage bags grows as we’re about to wrap-out on another Bay Area “low budget feature for festivals.”  Somewhere a PA waits for instructions on where to take it. I have to admit, I did ask for it: “I’ll do the recycling.”  I sift through garbage removing water bottles and soda cans.  I post signs:  “This is Garbage,” and “This is Recycling.”  It takes 7 days to break a habit.  This two week feature gives me hope.
