In August 2015 Max and Griffin participated in Talent Inc.  We enrolled the boys in the Talent Inc. program though Kamber Hejlik’s Acting Out Studio in Charlotte, NC. Griffin, who won Overall Child Actor at Talent Inc., was signed by Osbrink Agency in Los Angeles and is now also represented by Carson Adler in NYC and managed by RSA Talent in LA. Talent Inc. literally changed Griffin’s life. The experience gave him the confidence to pursue his dreams.  In addition to several roles in the southeast, Griffin has worked with Adam Sandler, Chris Rock and an amazing ensemble comedic cast in the upcoming Netflix movie The Week Of and recently just got to work with Ralph Macchio as his on-screen son in eight episodes of Cobra Kai with talks of expanding his role in upcoming seasons. Griffin is growing as an actor and continues to get positive feedback from casting and producers. In fact, Griffin has three auditions tomorrow.  As a parent, I am incredible grateful for his preparation by Kamber and his experience at Talent Inc.

Jordan first came to Acting Out Studio after reading there was an audition for a Christmas musical in 2013.  She landed a small part with a solo and was immediately bitten by the acting bug. As this was our family’s first foray into the arts, we signed her up for acting and singing classes.  We could not have been happier that our child was doing something she loved. She literally waited anxiously for each week of class. She took Acting 1 and moved up to Master Class before long.  Jordan has also done extensive improv with EB and singing with Tomeka since she started. She has attended numerous workshops with professionals, Talent Inc. in 2015, Breaking into the Biz with Kamber, including summer camps AND even hosted her 8th birthday party here.  This is Jordan’s home away from home. The entire staff goes overboard to make sure this is an inclusive environment and wants every child to develop a love of performing.  I recommend AOS time and time again. Another bonus is she has made friends from different schools all over Charlotte and Ft. Mill. She now has representation in Charlotte and LA and continues studying her craft and performing any chance she gets.  Thank you AOS!

We would like to thank Acting Out Studio for all of their training and coaching. Brenan as become a more confident actor and feels more prepared in auditions. His Improv class with EB has really helped tremendously with commercial auditions since most commercial auditions are all Improv. I really believe that it was his improv training that led him to booking his two latest commercials for Carowinds and Belk. As a parent we are so thankful for the guidance and preparation that Acting Out Studio has provided for Brenan. We are excited to see Brenan grow in his journey of acting with the help of Acting Out Studio! Thank You again!!

Kamber Hejlik and her incredible staff at Acting Out Studio are very knowledgeable and dedicated to their craft and very caring and supportive of their students. Our son, Kyle has benefited greatly from taking classes at AOS. Kamber and her staff thoroughly prepared Kyle for a very successful Talent Inc Showcase in Orlando. Kamber also assisted us with the logistics of securing appointments with a number of talent agencies. She personally walked us through the process of selecting talent representation for Kyle. We’ve been very pleased with AOS. I highly recommend anyone from novice to experienced actor to become a part of the AOS family.

Acting Out Studio helped make my daughter’s dream become a reality. Not only does she receive exceptional training from incredible talented teachers, she is provided opportunities to shoot for the stars and go for her dream. A little skeptical going in, Abby attended Talent Inc…it was the best decision we have ever made for her. She signed with 2 agents and a manger. She was on her way to living her dream. Thank you AOS and Talent Inc. for making Abby’s dreams come true. I highly recommend AOS & Talent Inc. to anyone looking for the best acting/modeling/voice training in NC and Talent Inc. for those who are ready to take it to the next level!

Acting Out Studio, thank you so much for the support you have given Caleb in his acting pursuits. Throughout his years with you, he has gained confidence, on-camera techniques, and auditioning skills. The improv program has helped him to grow as an actor and as a person.  It has enhanced his creativity, communication skills, and ability to think quickly. We also appreciate the professional audition-taping services you offer. With your help, Caleb has been able to book commercial, television and film work!

Acting Out Studio is an amazing resource for actors of all ages and levels. They have so many fun and challenging classes. All 3 of my children have taken classes there and have been fortunate enough to get an agent and become working actors. Plus, acting has given them the confidence in so many other areas of their lives.

Jared started Acting Out Studio in the Summer class’s . He immediately loved Logan and EB . At the end of the week long improv camp EB asked Jared to join The Lemonade Stand improv team. Due to AOS and their instructors, Jared has grown into a great actor, singer and more. The teachers are phenomenal and I couldn’t be happier watching Jared being so excited to attend class.

AOS was a crucial part in Emma’s successes!  Not only did AOS provide her with exceptional talent development classes, but also prepped her for interactions she would have with agents and everyone on a film set. I watched her confidence grow in so many areas and she continues to apply what she learned from AOS on a daily basis.  I’m so grateful for Kamber and her amazing staff!
