Introducing a Studio Full of Heart Dedication and Talent

With a passion for moving actors forward in their careers, these career consultants practice what they preach. Many Acting Studios use sales techniques, sales people, and telemarketing to build their business. At AIA Studios, a team of committed consultants have not only aided others in their pursuit of acting success, they live and breath what they teach.

Cynthia Ickes booked a Lead role in the Sci-Fi feature film, "Humanity's End". "The reason I became an AIA consultant was to make a difference in actor's live," states Ickes. "I get to greatly impact the lives of actor's with honesty and with the sense of understanding".

These consultants have hands on experience as far as what it takes in the business of acting and they love what they do. They get to work in an environment that feeds their passion on a daily basis. Since they know how significant this is, they understand and are committed to helping other actors reach their goals as well. As any consultant will respond, "I AM an advocate, supporter, advisor, motivator, empathizer, resource and guide. My clients are the CEOs of their respective brands; I am their consultant."

Kari Nissena recently Starred in 2 feature films including "CALLOUS" and Co-Starred opposite Nick Turturro on the Nickelodeon hit show "Just Jordan". She also starred in the films "Silver Patriot" and "Cats on a Plane" and booked one of the lead roles in the Sci-Fi Feature "Humanity's End". Kari believed it was important to be involved with a studio where she can continue to grow and that is why she chose AIA. "I get to coach actors on their auditions, goal setting, business plans, marketing, getting agents, scene work, publicity, how to get seen in Hollywood, and much more," Nissena says.

Dave Shalansky recently booked Guest Starring roles on the hit tv shows "Bones", "CSI", "Without A Trace" and the feature film "Greta" starring Hilary Duff. "I am really good at getting people psyched about being an actor. I see the members getting the most from their membership talking with me and realizing the opportunities AIA can offer. I impact the lives of actors through making them aware that his is a business and they need to treat this business as they are the CEO of their company and AIA has the tools needed".

Clients of AIA Studios rave that they feel at home at the studio. They are surrounded by like minded individuals and always have someone they can talk to if they have questions. "It's a community of artists, making their dreams come true". The consultants also know how important it is to invite professionals to the studio to teach classes or seminars, to help the actors grow.

Kelly Park will be seen on the hit Lifetime show, "How To Look Good Naked" with Carson Kressley. "I feel as though our members reap the benefits of the AIA Community of Artists-sharing information, support, a loving environment. It's about having a place that offers the entire experience", Kressley says. "As the Studio Coordinator it is my responsibility to make sure that the experience is everything we stand for- Better Training, Better Preparation, and Better Connection".

Johnny Giacalone recently booked a new play workshop at the Center Theatre Group one of the largest theatre companies in the nation, programming subscription seasons year-round at the Mark Taper Forum. Giacalone states, "I love working in an artist friendly environment where I'm around like minded people everyday. I take interest in each of the actors I help and have quite an impact on them and their careers".

As actors themselves, they know what other actors are looking for and what has helped them and they want to pass that on to others. "They're so passionate and giving, always making sure I am taken care of and pushing me when they see I'm getting a little lazy". "They really care", says a dedicated AIA member.

Phoebe Ventouras recently signed with Clear Talent Group for Commercial representation. Phoebe brings the experience of trial and error and learning from good and bad advice through the years of being in this business. "I get to help others actors and save them the time of going through the same mistakes I made". "I provide encouragement for actors to be proactive about their own careers. As Managing Director of the studio, I am always looking for ways to help our members make connections and treat those connections as a long-term business relationship," Ventouras says.

AIA Studios prides itself on hiring the best representatives for their clients. This isn't just a business of acting, it's a community of artists helping one another and succeeding together.
