    This program is outstanding. My son has just finished his first *** program and really loved it. He enjoyed the entire experience and wanted more. ****** and his coaches put a lot of hard work into helping my son develop his acting skills. I was impressed by how much my son's acting had improved in such a short amount of time. ****** and his staff are very professional and honest.

    This past summer I flew out to ********** all the way from ****** for CGTV's acting program. It was the absolute best thing I have ever done. Since the first day I met ****** R'***** he was nothing but helpful and had such a great vibe. As a 17 year old girl who grew up dancing, baton twirling, doing gymnastics, competing in pageants, etc. Acting was something I always wanted to do I just never knew how to get started. When me and my family saw the post online about the acting program something in my heart told me this was my chance I could not let it pass and I'm grateful I took it. The week I had with the CGTV's staff, students, and obviously ****** R'***** was amazing. I learned so much from each individual and gained experience to help me with my future in acting. After months of hard work and dedication to this program it all paid off. I am currently signed with an agency now making one of my biggest dreams come true. All thanks to the Lord and ****** himself. My biggest advice for the next students joining is to give it your all and don't ever give up, their are so many obstacles that come as you go through life but don't let them define you. when you feel like you can't do it remember this Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through ****** which strengthens me". Lastly thank you CGTV for giving me an opportunity of a life time I will forever cherish my time spent working with you and I can't wait to see what the future holds.

    My granddaughter completed the CGTV 7 day program in August 2024 and was very successful. There were 19 agents/managers in attendance at her Showcase and she got 16 call backs. We had previous experience the prior year with a different company where she was successful as well, but the training, information and exposure to industry knowledge offered by CGTV was unmatched and has proven to be invaluable for us. Prior to CGTV she had 1 booking for a commercial. After CGTV she signed with an agent and a manager and so far this year she has had 5 bookings for commercials and print ads. The knowledge we gained helped us improve every aspect of the audition process which has been critical to her success. Words of warning is that while getting a callback from the showcase is exciting, it does not always lead to being signed by an agent. Although she had 16 callbacks, only about 10 wanted to interview her and then about 5 wanted to sign her so it truly is a numbers game. But, if you think that your child has talent, this program will definitely help you determine how realistic that thought is. ****** noticed something in my granddaughter and took a personal interest in helping her be successful while putting her in a situation where her strengths would be on display. From what I saw, I believe that he feels that way about each participant and offers long term connections with coaches that your child is already familiar and comfortable with. It was certainly a valuable investment for us and is continuing to pay off. It is not a scam and if you choose to invest, you will gain valuable unbiased knowledge that either your child has a talent for this or they do not. Either way, you will know for sure. My only complaint was about the photos that were sold as "professional headshots". They were very much unprofessional and all of the agents we interviewed with wanted us to get new photos.

    ****** owner of CGTV was truly an amazing leader! He believed in our child from the very beginning and gave him the confidence to shine. Thanks to his guidance and support, our son received 9 callbacks! What really stood out to us is that even after the event was over, ****** continued to be thereanswering every single question we had and helping us navigate the next steps. His dedication, encouragement, and genuine belief in the kids makes such a difference. We are so grateful for all hes done!

    What an awesome experience! We were skeptical after doing the Honolulu audition and being asked for money to go to a showcase, but this is the real deal. The VIP experience was totally worth it and I wouldnt do anything less than that. Your child gets so much out of it. Sessions with real actors on how to do monologues and commercials and cold reading, etc. The children there are so open and friendly and its such a great community. Its really a once in a lifetime experience for a child and is great for their confidence.Its basically a full week of training from industry professionals, and at the end of it your child gets to perform in front of real Hollywood agents. We got three callbacks. The information provided is essential for anybody trying to get into the industry. And ****** is there 100% of the time. He answers the questions that you have and takes time for each individual person, adult and child. 100% recommend

    She was noticed, just like I see her!I have always known that my daughter is a superstar (doesnt every mother), and I cant tell you what it feels like to have another person see what I see in her. When she initially went to the call, it was the first time she had done anything of the sort. At eight years old, I was excited for her to shine! She was invited to attend a longer program that is designed to provide more acting training, specifically with film and TV in mind.We took her to the program in *********, summer of 2025, and wow! What an experience. She had the time of her life, finding and bonding with so many other kids of her ilk. She was captivated by her acting coaches so thoughtfully procured by ****** and CGTV, and loved every second of it. She gained invaluable experience and insight into the industry and absolutely killed it on stage thanks to the fine-tuning and help of ****** and the team. ****** has the warmth, support, and genuine caring of his wider family (CGTV).An added benefit that I didnt expect was the bonding of the parents over the weekend. My daughter met some incredible kids, but they were from other families, just like us. They had sisters and brothers, families and loved ones who were all there supporting their budding actors. We, as parents, bonded over our children, which was so sweet.I feel so lucky to have been invited into the CGTV family, and I wholeheartedly give five stars to this organization. Thank you!

    ****** and CGTV delivered! As a possibly over-protective father, when I first took my daughter to a talent call in ****, I was unsure what to make of it. However, I immediately want to mention that ****** and the entire CGTV staff were not only comforting but also knowledgeable. They made sure we knew exactly what the process was and what to expect. When the time came for me to make financial decisions about the investment I could make for my daughter, I felt no pressure, and I was guided by complete honesty and integrity from EVERYONE. ****** communicated with me openly and honestly, father to father. It can be so hard these days to determine who to trust, especially with children, and ultimately, I decided she would attend the All-Star program. Im here to tell you that after completing the four-day all-star weekend with my daughter, Im thoroughly impressed. I said throughout the weekend, and after, multiple times, ****** did what he promised. He promised training, exposure, fun, and engagement. If anything, he overdelivered! He and his team are responsive, informative, and feel like family. Im not sure how he finds so many people who are full of compassion and insight who love to be around and teach kids, but hes found the right recipe. I highly endorse this program and CGTV. How refreshing it is to meet people of such integrity. ****** is a man of his word.

    Worth Every *****. Truly Life-Changing for Young Actors Ill be honest. At first, I was hesitant. With the cost of the program, I wondered if CGTV might be too good to be true. But after completing the 7-day VIP experience, I can confidently say it was worth every ***** and then some.Adrians program is the real deal. If you have a child who is serious about getting into acting and being seen, I would recommend CGTV over and over again. My son went in knowing nothing about the acting world and came out transformed, not only in skill but in confidence and understanding of the industry.The outcome far exceeded our expectations. After the showcase, he received interest from 14 agents in LA and has now officially signed with an incredible agency, all thanks to CGTV. This opportunity simply wouldnt have been possible without ****** and his team.Speaking of the team, the coaching staff working alongside ****** were phenomenal, so talented, encouraging, and professional. We ended up connecting with one of the coaches and now continue coaching via Zoom.If youre on the fence, just know I was too. But CGTV is 100 percent legit. Were so grateful we took the ******* it. You wont regret it.

    Its a great program for people who really dont know anything about the acting industry or kids who really have never acted before. I will say this definitely is not for people 18 and up and he knows this, but doesnt say it. All of these scenes are so kid related and these agents are truly looking for KIDS actors. Its so hard to find ones that are looking for adult talent. The price is also pretty expensive. ****** definitely lives a lavish lifestyle and shows it. I really wouldnt waste your money on this. I did and as a 20 year old when I did the program, everything is kid centered and for them. I just wish he would be honest and say this isnt for grown adults.

    ******* and team is Legit. I was a little hesitant because it is scary investing but the experience and training was priceless and very REAL DEAL!!! They exceeded my expectations. I felt very safe leaving my kids with them. They did the ***** system with a coach when they did bathroom breaks. Even at the studio they were behind gates and everywhere your child is they will not let your kid leave unless you pick them up. My child hates school and loved every day of this. The showcase was professional, funny, flowed and was well executed. I loved every minute of it and so did my child. It was an experience to see your child perform in front of agents and managers. They were all so prepared and nailed it. Q and A was so helpful. ****** and team has pure love for those kids and wants them all to succeed and gives them all the tools and opportunity to do so. ****** throws off a good vibe and is so great with the kids and cannot express enough how hard he tries to help each one of them and genuinely cares for them. And if you are lucky to work with *** she is the best!! Thank you for choosing my kid and giving us this opportunity and training and we cant wait for the next one! Tage loves you guys big!!
