Success Stories

For anyone thinking of coming to explore the opportunity here in L.A., Industry Hollywood is your best shot at getting the right up to date info, insight and help you need to set a plan of action. |
Through the guidance of Industry Hollywood, I obtained my O1 visa in less than four months, was offered representation by four different managers/agencies and had auditions for a major new TV series and a Broadway show.

I attended the LA Networking Week in November 2013. It was an action packed week and we met so many different people from the industry including directors, casting directors, acting coaches, agents and managers. The week has so many meetings and auditions with some of the leading representatives in L.A. including a top agent and management who offered me representation. Since my return to the UK, Industry Hollywood has helped me through the process of obtaining my working papers. They introduced to me the right people and guided me every step of the way. Industry Hollywood goes above and beyond any expectations. They have supported me through everything and continue you to help me now that I am in L.A. They are always just a phone call way. You couldn't ask for anything more. I have been lucky enough to attend two Industry Hollywood Networking Weeks now and I cannot speak about them highly enough. For an actor at any stage of their career, this week is invaluable. Both weeks have, without question, been the most influential weeks of my acting life. I learned a lot about myself as a performer and as a person and greatly improved after each week. I have been lucky enough to acquire an O1 visa and due to my last Networking Week in April, I managed to secure representation with an agency. I attended the Industry Hollywood Visa Seminar, which helped me secure my O-1 Visa. Once I relocated to the U.S., I took part in the LA Networking Week in 2010, which was a vital instrument in helping me secure also my first L.A. manager and was a ton of fun! I've been living in LA for four years and have successfully secured agency representation in film/TV, commercial and modeling, and have been working consistently in all these fields. |
Industry Hollywood helped both of us successfully secure our working visas. They went above and beyond to help, advise and follow up. Just two short months after attending the L.A. Networking Week and I was here, my O1 visa and signed with a manager whom I'd met during the week.
Industry Hollywood’s Networking Week is packed with meetings, workshops and master classes with an array of L.A.’s finest. You’re given so many chances to shine. Every possible detail is covered and you come away from the week with extensive insight into how L.A. works and the possibilities that are out there for you. I attended the L.A. Networking Week in April 2014 and I have to admit that it was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. I had an amazing time, met so many different agents, producers and acting teachers who I probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to work with otherwise. It was also a good chance to check my acting skills. |
After Industry Hollywood help me get my visa, I attended the Networking Week twice, got an agent in Hollywood and moved to America. In the first 10 weeks I got 12 jobs, offers for two feature films, one pilot, and a film shoot with Disney. The Visa Seminar - If you want to live and work in America as an actor you need a visa.

I was in London when I first heard about Industry Hollywood. |
Industry Hollywood made it seem possible to turn my dream into a reality. I had never been to L.A. when I signed up for the L.A. Networking Week. Being taken to hotspots, meeting acting coaches, agents and managers took a weight off my shoulders.

I had such a good experience I decided to repeat the Networking Week last November (2013).

First I thought ‘OK, get a flight, get some phone numbers and a pile of head shots and see what happens!’ I did some research and came across Industry Hollywood. The information was really helpful! I met them and decided to apply for my O1 visa with their guidance and signed up for the Networking Week. I attended the Industry Hollywood Networking Week back in April 2012.

Industry Hollywood helped me obtain my O1 visa and a year after attending the Networking Week, I moved to Los Angeles and signed with a manager that I had met during the networking week. I have since booked my first role in L.A in a feature film called "May the Best Man Win”. This is all thanks to Industry Hollywood! Words can simply not express my overwhelming gratitude to Industry Hollywood for helping me realize my Hollywood dreams are within reach! For 23 years I've been wondering if it could be at all possible and this last week has shown me YES IT IS!! We had some one-to-ones, which I am grateful for and this is a great thing you do! I had a great time and have made some really good friends and know I will be back and that's because of Industry Hollywood! |
The Industry Hollywood journey was without a shadow of a doubt the most inspiring and amazing insight into the entertainment industry. This journey saves you time and money. Industry Hollywood has a great network of people in the industry and I am astonished that no one has done what they have set out and accomplished. I couldn't recommend this trip enough; it's essential and part of your learning process. It was also fun and a real buzz. We got to meet famous people like Pamela Anderson, Forrest Whitaker, Thomas Jane, and some guy from NSYNC. The horse riding in the Hollywood hills is breath taking so remember to bring your camera. Well-done industry Hollywood. |
Industry Hollywood provided me with that initial taste of what the business is like in LA. The Networking Week was a great eye opener and helped me understand the effort that is involved in building a career in LA. They gave me a huge amount of advice and guidance when it came to getting my visa for the US and were instrumental in me earning it. |
