Response to the Bridge Program

"The ideal opportunity for trained actors to become part of our industry!  The more knowledge that an actor has of the day-to-day process, the better equipped they are to navigate its waters."                          
- Marci Phillips, Director of Casting for ABC Primetime

"The Bridge Program was a great experience.  As a result, I signed a 3-year contract with Bleecker Street Entertainment which has led to freelancing with Paradigm's on-camera commercial department. Michael Rodgriguez signed me to the legit department at UGLY Talent, and I have been working with their print division as well.  Some of the projects I have been called in for include 30 Rock and Gossip Girl."     
- Hank Chen, Bridge Program Alumnus
