"I had the privilege of taking two of Dave's classes fairly recently and have applied what I learned to land a lead in an industrial video just recently! I found myself having to rely on improv skills and professionalism when my adult co-lead showed up extremely unprepared! I was completely prepared and managed to make a great impression on the producer and director as well as the client! " Olyvia B.
