Commercial acting classes in New York City

Casting agents audition countless actors. It takes an astounding actor to make it past their judgment as well as that of the director, agency executives, and producer. Being able to interact positively with the commercial’s production team is a must.

Never lose sight of the objective. Successfully convincing the audience that a product or service is worth buying is the primary goal of the production team. An actor who is himself convinced of the product’s worth will create a more genuine performance.

The Maggie Flanigan Studio is an acting studio in New York City. The studio offers commercial acting classes. Visit the studio website where you can get answers to the rest of your questions about commercial acting.

STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

“I was placed in the intense reigns of Charlie Sandlan. I became a better artist, actor, friend, sibling and daughter because of the studio. Even now, I crave the studio every day. What I learned is present in my work every day. I truly believe in everything they stand for.”

Jes Macallan

“Maggie taught me that I could control my work, my acting, and to throw all of the bullshit out that I had in my head about ‘what I should be doing’ and to just listen and respond honestly, in the moment. She gave me a craft. She is, quite simply put, THE BEST.”

Leslie Bibb

“Maggie Flanigan taught me the true meaning of artistry, passion, and professionalism. I am certain that I continue to work as an actress because of my training with Maggie. At every audition and every performance, her guiding voice is with me. It is a gift beyond measure.”
