I am so pleased with David’s Hack Hollywood program! It is well-organized and well-implemented. The modules are full of useful information; the discussions are relevant and inspiring. The mentor phone calls provide a personalized, human element that is often lacking in training programs. After wasting hundreds (thousands, if I am honest) on workshops and classes that were basically nothing more than an ego massage for the presenters, it’s so refreshing to know that this investment has more than paid for itself. I am glad that I discovered it, and gladly recommend it!
I am 100 % on the same page with David’s creation, Hack Hollywood. This is absolutely the best investment (totally inexpensive) I have made to see my dream of being a working professional actor become a reality. I am deeply grateful to David for two reasons: One – the content and quality of the information he is sharing is invaluable and a completely new paradigm for how to succeed as a professional actor, and Two – David’s rediculously unselfish, infinite generosity, and obvious sincere care and compassion for fellow actors seeking success. He shares all his valuable knowledge with passion and a genuine desire to help us. Thank you David

Thanks Paul. I can only try to live up to your high praise!
Thank you David, you’re a needed Voice in the entertainment industry! As one who has found success as professional actor, you help clear the way through the myths and misconceptions many performers have entering the business. I wish you the best as you coach and mentor those who seek to “hack” Hollywood!
Sincerely,

I can’t remember how I stumbled over the notice about David’s webinar podcast, but, I’m sure glad I did. First validation for me was Jenn Gotzon’s good words about him. I know her and trust her. I’m in training module #2 and so much of David’s advice is exactly what I’ve been told by other acting coaches I respect so, that for me was another validation. Following his advice about workshops, headshots, and agents will save hundreds of dollars. I’ve already implemented some of his advice that I can act on immediately and making plans for an internship where it will do me the most good. I highly recommend Hack Hollywood to anyone SERIOUS about an acting career.
Love the advice. Keeping me on the right track. I feel like there will be success!
There are plenty of people who will tell you how to succeed or ‘make it,’ and most are well intentioned, but you want to work with someone who has been exactly where you are now, struggled with exactly the same issues that you are stuggling with now, who is a lot like you, but who also figured out how to achieve his goals and become a professional actor. David and Hack Hollywood are the real deal.
If you’re lost, confused, and lack a certain amount of confidence, that’s only natural for a beginner. The trick is to ACT today, that will move you to where you want to go. Today’s working succesful actors simply figured what are the right actions to take and then they took them. They persisted, they pushed through, they never stopped learning, they got better at what they needed to get better at, and they did not give up. And they believed in themselves.That in a nut shell is what Hack Hollywood, or Hack New York, or Hack Anywhere, is all about: it’ll help you to believe in yourself by showing you the actions you need to take to succeed. It’s time to WAKE UP and start doing what you need to really do.
Wow, I couldn’t have said it better myself! Thanks Christopher.
Very valuable advice. So many things I never thought about. Hack Hollywood has definitely helped me see more possibilities when it comes to booking acting jobs. David knows his stuff.
David thinks outside of the box and tells you stuff that no one else will. I cannot wait until he posts his next insightful bit of advice. The thing about David, acting folk, is that what he passes on to you is helpful, refreshing, and tested in the trenches info that no one else seems to dare to share. Most of all, it gives you HOPE, people!
Since joining Hack Hollywood, my career is full steam ahead! The information in the modules is truly applicable and works. Davids’ knowledge and advice is honest. I am thankful to be a Hacktor!!
Hi, David.
I thoroughly enjoyed the seminar and took a few notes. You did a great job conveying your passion for acting and inspired me to continue on the path I am on. I am a fledgling Actor, Voice Actor and long-time Musician.
(*Note from David: Rob is not a Hack Hollywood member. He just watched the free webinar presentation: http://hackhollywood.com/signup/webinar-presentation)
David’s take on the business of acting is totally refreshing – there’s no bells or whistles, no hoops to jump through, just a simple, step-by-step plan to get ahead. Thanks so much for such valuable info!
Thank you Shannon
Well I have some good news to share…I haven’t even posted this on FB yet…lol… I have landed my first speaking role. I went to my first audition a few weeks ago and I got offered the role I wanted today…so this lil ol background actor is moving up!
I’m so grateful for Hack Hollywood. I have been working in this town for a number of years already and I love that there is a place for actors to hold themselves accountable, gain insight, share their experiences, and refocus. Like David said, the more serious actors we have here, the better the site will be. I’m revamping my career and Hack Hollywood is my path. Keep it up team. Let’s take Hollywood over!

Hi, David
I am very thankful that I found the hackhollywood academy and became a member.
as everything new in life, we all need to find out what we get involved with. Slowly but surely, after listening the module 1 and 2, I know I am in a good hand now.
The online module allows me to step into an artistic mode any time I need. To be inspired, motivated,and encouraged; not to be side tracked or off tracked. I believe this is very important to me and to us– the actors–the artists. We need a positive environment that we can lean on to AT ALL TIME, particularly when we face some tough challenges in the real world, there is hackhollywood, a support system we can fall back on.
That is why I felt that I have a metor who believes in me strongly, believes my talent can grow and will fly.
I am amazed that just how much information David is teaching us, like he is pulling his heart, pulling his soul, and pulling his teeth for us..:)) to make us believe that—-I CAN DO IT,YOU CAN TOO. So far…we are into the module 2, and I am overwhelming by all the knowledge he is teaching…well..,need to say..THIS IS AN ACADEMY, not a weekend workshop…
Final say….Thank you so very much! David
I am a very happy student and very happy customer!
