Editorial Reviews

I have just completed teaching a very successful course on Acting in Commercials, thanks to Ruthe Geier-Price and Michael Geier's innovative course, as presented in their new book, Acting in On-Camera Commercials. The students loved the very practical presentation of the material, the clever copy provided, and the visuals, as available in the photo illustrations. The reviews presented at the ends of the chapters left no question as to the importance of the salient points.

The book is filled with useful information obviously mined from years of experience and success in the field by the authors. The exercises, demonstration copy and practical advice mesh easily with the assignments in my syllabus. This is an excellent resource that will help my students understand the requisite professional standards and develop the many skills necessary to compete in this complex business.
