They run a young actors "boot camp" and make wild claims about introducing kids and parents to casting directors and getting them in films. They also claim to bring in agents and managers. They claim THEY are a management company (they don't represent literally ANY actors.) and they charge HUGE fees.
Basically they take advantage of the kid/teen networks, who allow people to come on tours for free!!! And pay a couple of unsuspecting kid actors to come to their "inner city" actors school. Little does the actor know that they are charging these people 3-5,000 for a 3 week school. CRAZY!!!
I am a casting director, you do not need to pay these huge amounts of money. You can go to any casting workshop event around LA for small amounts of money for classes that are taught by ACTUAL casting directors, you can get excellent acting classes for $40-45 a session or less. There is no MYSTERY in hollywood about how to break in and you don't need to pay 3-5k to learn it.
