Specializing In Publicity For Film Premieres & Red Carpet Events
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are involved in a theatre production or any type of live event that could of interest to others in the entertainment industry, we can help you spread the word and attract an audience.
Because we mainly do PR for film premieres, we have several e-mail lists of people that you would want to come see your production. We keep adding names every week. We have:
1. 3,001 e-mail addresses of producers, directors and production companies based in the Los Angeles area.
2. More than 200 e-mail address of agents, personal managers and casting directors.
3. More than 100 media e-mail addresses, mainly those who cover and report on all things to do with the entertainment industry.
4. An e-mail list with more than 12,000 people in the Los Angeles area, many in all levels of the industry, who like to attend films, theatre productions and industry events.
We can do an e-mail blast to the four groups listed above for only $400. (That breaks down to only one hundred dollars per group) We have spent more than ten years building these lists. It is not something you can buy anywhere. For one low price, you’re getting something that took us thousands of hours to research and create.
Whether one is an actor, writer or director, the reason why most people become involved in a theatre production in Los Angeles, is to be seen by VIPs in the industry who can hire them. To get these people aware of your play, you must create a buzz. A large e-mail blast can help you do that.
A little something extra…
From 1987 to 2,000, I produced and directed 187 TV commercials; I also cast about 100 national and local commercials for advertising agencies. If you’re theatre group is located in the Los Angeles area and depending on my schedule, I would be willing to come by and give a thirty-minute speech to your actors about how to find work in TV commercials. I would do this for free because I believe that if one empowers and enlightens others, it makes the world a better place.

Michael Won the prestigious MARY ANN KELLY Foundation AWARD OF EXCELLENCE for his performance as Tye McCool in the West Coast Premiere of VIEUX Carre by Tennessee Williams at the Beverly Hills Playhouse.
Michael built his own acting ensemble and developed a Film company (The Actors Film Company)
through The Total Workshop For Acting (and it's 24/7 website Showcase) based on originally written material. In the workshop Michael applies the summer theater/ stock philosophy into his classes based on the reality of Hollywood. Students with the Total Workshop for Acting will not only work with fellow performers of all skill levels but also be required to handle lots of original material to sharpen your short-term preparedness skills.
To date The Total Workshop For Acting is in the process of completing 2 feature films borne out of the workshop and written, produced and directed by Michael. The workshop shorts 'Secret Blessing', 'Having a Baby I Hope', 'About My Husband' and 'Violent Actions and Wisdom' all won STEVEN BOCHO Cafe Confidential Awards.

As well as Winning a Best Writer for a short original anti-Drug Commercial that was selected to be on the Katherine Heigle film Side-effects the movie...on the Bonus Material...
Workshop films have been in The Palm Springs Film Festival and The Queens International Film Festival...
Michael teaches his actors how to work fast with his ONE SHOT - ONE TAKE film exercises and to LEARN YOUR LINES quickly...which he believes is a major key to great acting in the Hollywood environment.
The workshop allows the actors to work towards custom demo reels...so because of Michael's long time relationship with Sarah Pettycrew as a actress and Producer for The Actors Film Company Michael is offering a special opportunity to join The Total Workshop For Acting...to all Creative Actors Alliance members...
