We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It was definitely challenging to move to a different country as a minor, in the hopes of following my dream. I had to overcome being away from family, friends, my home culture and native language. In the process of adapting to the States I also lived in Massachusetts and Texas before eventually settling in Los Angeles, California, where I have been for over 10 years.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about 3-2-1 Acting Studios?
At 3-2-1 Acting Studios, Amanda prepares child actors from the age of 4, to adult actors, begin their careers in the entertainment business. Amanda produces her signature Showcase & Acting Career Program: an acting program that is different from all others in the industry, as it includes training with several Hollywood acting coaches, in addition to including photo shoots, demo reels, and all the “business of the business “aspects of licenses and permits for minors, resume editing, interview training, and more! This program culminates into a showcase day, in which agents and managers from renowned agencies come to watch performances and offer career opportunities.
Unlike other showcases in the United States, which usually occur in one single say, Amanda’s program is famous for its uniqueness, as it includes an exclusive training process and seminars over a period of six weeks before showcase day, as well as career guidance and exclusive events with industry professionals afterwards.
