COACH: MOJO's TONY FELTON
REFERENCES: "Taking a person who had no prior acting experience, Tony had a certain professionalism and passion for teaching that was very visible. He paid a great deal of attention to detail and how the scenes should be presented. It was a pleasure to work with him and have him teach me about the business of acting." (Kevin Jackson)
"Intense. That is the first word that comes to my mind when I think of Tony and his acting sessions." (Kalon Jackson)
"Hard working and dedicated. Tony gives his all and he expects you to do the same." (Tomoko)
"The brother does not let you get away with anything. Tony's not in it just for the money! He really wants to see you make it in this business. Every time I run into him, he keeps saying, 'Jabari, when are you going to go to California?'" (Jabari Gray)
To all of my Latino brothers & sisters---be aware that OSCAR nominee, Salma Hayek has joined forces with MGM pictures to form her own production company, VENTANAZUL! No doubt, she will be looking for fresh new faces to complete her vision.
Spike Lee will be directing the Broadway version of the classic film, "Stalag 17" sometime next year. He wants a multi-racial cast. The movie version got William Holden an Oscar. Rent/buy the film to see where you might fit in. I'll take you there!
