TESTIMONIALS
Nina Wilson
Actor

"The first and most important quality that I look for in a company is Professionalism! And I have to say that Studio 24 is that and all of the above. Cody definitely knows what he is doing and gives all of us (his students) great training and advice in our careers. I feel so blessed to be apart of the Studio 24 team and believing that I will get to where I want to be in my career in the film industry."


Hannah Mahoney
Actor

"I'm constantly learning new things in Studio 24's acting class. It's hard work and you're constantly pushed to do better, but that's when the best scenes happen. I feel far more prepared to start a career in the film industry, whereas before I went here it felt impossible. It's worth every penny. I don't know what aspiring actors do without you guys!"
