CGTV Grad Making Waves In Hollywood!

CGTVEarlier in the year we wrote about an amazing talent we scouted in Arizona last October, Bailey Axen.  You can read his initial article by Clicking Here.  Bailey scored a multitude of offers from Hollywood Agents and Managers at his CGTV Live Performance showcase at the end of the training program.

 

After doing our homework, we decided on an agent and a manager from the CGTV Showcase evening.  Since then, Bailey has been on numerous auditions for feature films with A list Hollywood actors attached to them and for many commercials.  Bailey has auditioned for Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel.   Recently Bailey has been put on hold by a producer for a national television commercial and Lisa London, one of the most influential casting agents in Hollywood brought Bailey in to audition to play a young Adam Sandler in his new Netflix Movie.  Lisa London was an additional resource that Bailey picked up at CGTV.  Her book from Start to Stardom is a great tool and resource for anyone pursuing acting seriously.  

Bailey has quickly discovered that this profession is tough and requires patience, persistence and passion.  Acting is hard work and to be really great, you have to continue to improve by taking workshops, classes and hiring coaches that can help you grow and be competitive in the market place.  Just like an athlete or entrepreneur, an actor must put in the work to receive the rewards.  Even through rejection, Bailey keeps a smile is grateful for the opportunity and moves on to the next shot.  CGTV and Adrian R’Mante prepared him for this road, so it was not unfamiliar when he had to walk it alone.  

Stardom is rarely an overnight success!  Getting a reputable Hollywood Agent and Manager alone can take years and years of rejections.  CGTV took years of pursuit out of our equation and put Bailey directly in front of the talent agents and managers that could launch his career.  Now, it’s up to Bailey.  One thing that has been crucial is celebrating the wins.  Getting an audition is a win.  Getting a call back is another.  Being put on hold is a win.  Booking the job is the prize and it’s not easy.  But when you love acting as much as Bailey does, you pursue your dream relentlessly with all of your heart.  

Bailey is extremely grateful and feels very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to work with Adrian R’Mante and CGTV and feels he received the tools he needed to start him down his true career path.  Bailey has booked his first TV role, 6 months after graduating from CGTV.  He is guest starring on an episode of Adam Ruins Everything called Adam Ruins the Wild West! 

Pilot season is just around the corner and Bailey is super excited for the calls he expects to receive from his agent and manager.

CGTV is not a scam

CGTV is not a scam, I know firsthand!

CGTV is not a scamCGTV is not a scam, I know firsthand! The following is a personal letter written to us from one of our Graduates from last January’s VIP Program at CGTV – The Celebrity Experience. It’s easy for us to tell you how great our program is, but we prefer if you hear it from our graduates/students instead. If you are looking for CGTV Reviews and/or whether or not CGTV is a scam, keep reading.
“Ever since I can remember I have had dreams of being an actress. Growing up with a thespian as a mother probably had a little something to do with that. Throughout the years I have auditioned and performed in many shows/venues, including the Utah Shakespeare competition. However I always wanted more. I knew my dream was to make it to the Oscars some day. Luckily I was gifted with a mother who believed in my dreams and wanted to help make them a reality. She was always looking out for auditions that either me or her could do, and one day a local talent agent sent her an email with the information for CGTV auditions happening that following week in Phoenix, Arizona. CGTV is not a scam.
Neither me or my mother had ever heard of CGTV and immediately thought it was going to be a scam or trap. We decided to look further into it. After hopping on google and typing them in we came across a negative review on the first page. We decided to click on it thinking yep, just another waste of time. Words cannot express how shocked we were, and moved, over the 8 paragraph response Adrian R’Mante had personally written himself in the comment section of the review. Seeing a star, someone I watched throughout my childhood and loved, defending and putting effort into helping his own cause and not sending someone else or just ignoring them was amazing. In addition there were PAGES of other parents that had actually been through the program defending the program and Adrian. We immediately secured our audition. CGTV is not a scam.
I don’t really know how to describe the feeling of knowing that you were going to potentially meet and perform in front of people you watched growing up on Disney. Never in my life had I memorized a commercial that fast. My nerves were in overdrive after finding out from my mother that Hutch Dano from Zeke and Luther was going to be the guest judge and actor for our auditions. Now not only did I have to perform in front of strangers I had to now do it in front of a high school crush of mine! Butterflies were swarming in my stomach as we entered the room that was completely filled with other kids waiting for their auditions, maybe about 600. After realizing that I’ve watched and seen all the actors personally, that are on their opening video, that they helped get started with CGTV I was floored and crazy excited. (By the way, we knew it was real when only about 50/600 of us were offered a spot in the program)
I’m finally put in the room with Hutch and am trying not to let  my nerve show on my face. Afterwards he told me I did a great job, I will forever remember that as my first real step into the acting world! Sadly the time care for us to leave and wait for the calls to come, or not come. 11 pm rolls around and I’m having to face the music and start thinking about my next move since I didn’t make it. Twenty minutes later I go back to find a voicemail waiting on my phone, and it’s CGTV letting me know that both me and my mother had been selected! We meet with them and talked about what needed to happen next and decided the V.I.P. package route was the best and smartest way to go. We were scheduled for the beginning of January. My personal experience at CGTV can not be described as anything less than extraordinary.. I had the best time of my life, learned everything about the business, and have the confidence and knowledge to continue my career in acting. And, I walked away with all the tools needed to secure an agent and/or manager. Lastly, becuase I bought the top VIP package, I can come back to CGTV for FREE for the rest of my life and perform live over and over in front of agents/managers until I get a callback. That is committment. I love Adian and CGTV so much, I hope to work with them one day!”
PS… I almost forgot to tell you how AMAZING it is when all your OTHER child hood stars from Disney arrive at CGTV to train you as well. The dad from Josh and Drake, Jonathan Goldstein, Geno Segers from Pair of Kings, RJ Cyler from Me, Earl and The Dying Girl and Power Rangers 2017! And more…. it was the time of my life and I will never forget it.

CGTV Grad scores Brad Pitt film.

Acting is a difficult business and actors must become accustomed to handling rejection with grace and humility.  Because it is such a tough industry, we are equally as proud of our graduates whether they score a cornflakes commercial or a role in a Brad Pitt film.

CGTV Grad scores Brad Pitt film

We find our students by hosting auditions in cities across the globe and are probably headed to your state (or close by) sometime soon.  It was in Florida that we found RJ Cyler.  We have boasted a bit about his accomplishments since attending CGTV’s acting program.
We are proud to announce that RJ Cyler whom has starred in Me, Earl & The Dying Girl and is currently filming Power Rangers 2017 in which he was cast as The Blue Ranger.  Now, we hear he has been cast in a Brad Pitt film.

CGTV was an amazing and fruitful experience for Kiara Corkett.  During her program she spent time working with our CEO, Adrian R’Mante from The Suite Life of Zack And Cody as well as Bex Taylor-Klaus from MTV’s Scream and Arrow and many more celebrity actors.  In fact, CGTV found Bex Taylor-Klaus at an audition in a local city the same way we found Kiara Corkett.

Since her graduation, Kiara is working with an agent and has a busy summer ahead.  She is currently shooting the movie Bagman, two commercials for Canada’s 150th birthday next year, two web series (She’s Back In My Life and another whose title is yet to be announced).  These projects span the genres of horror, drama and even sketch comedy and part of that reason is due to the training in versatility provided by CGTV.
The family keeps us up to date on her progress and is very grateful to the program and Adrian himself.

Dylan Madison was skeptical about CGTV but that didn’t last long! Listen to what one of our recent CGTV Graduates had to say about our acting program and what it did for her.

Skeptic is won over by CGTV

“Adrian R’Mante, I just wanted to thank you for this amazing opportunity. Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have been a part of this and to have met all the people that I did. I was definitely skeptical at first and didn’t believe that this program would truly benefit me. However, I was SO wrong. You made it a safe and comfortable environment where everyone could grow and perform to their highest potential. I learned more than I thought was possible and I will never forget this trip and the all people who helped me. So thank you again for all that you do!”

 
At CGTV, we strive to do the impossible – make your Hollywood dream come true.  We provide the training and real life experience required to shine both on and off camera.

CGTV is an incubator for kids and young adults.  While we do accept talented adults into our program, our main focus are kids and young adults ages 5-25.  We have about an 80% success rate in getting our graduates called back by top Hollywood managers, agents and/or agencies.  For those that do not attain one on the first try out, we allow them to come back, at no cost and try again.  Even if they don’t get an agent the first time, they are gaining the tools of the trade for a lifetime.

Read what Emilee Rempel had to say about CGTV:

 

 Learned at CGTV

“Hi, my name is Emilee Rempel and I was in the CGTV program in July 2015!  The program was an amazing experience and I gained a lot from it like; learning how to get into character, learning how to do an audition properly, improv technique, how to make a monologue and lots more. It was very fun for me because I got to meet new people and make lots of friends. My favorite part of it all was getting to perform in front of everyone, whenever I get up on stage it always makes me feel this certain type of way that you cant really explain, its just really exciting to me, acting lets me be anyone I want to be it lets me escape from the real world and really just be who I am. Adrian really helped me with all of that because he taught me how to be the best actor you can be, he taught me how to perfect everything. Adrian is an awesome mentor and how he got to where he is today, really inspires me. He treated us  normally, he doesn’t think he’s better than anyone, he treated everyone equal and made us feel special. He helped me build confidence in myself.  Again, really good program and I hope others enjoyed it as much as I did  ☺  Emilee Rempel”
