- I participated, for the first time, in ACF 11. I would like
to thank you guys for providing the services that you do. It's
nice to have some assistance in pursuing this career. While it
provides no guarantees, I particularly like the fact that I can
drop off pictures to designated agents as opposed to the crap
shoot of mailing them.

out there that actually does what it promises. You all are great!

- Thank you for giving New York Actors your site. I use it every
single day. And recently I auditioned for a feature film posted
on your site and I found out on Friday 9/15/05 that I was cast.
Love your site and keep up all the hard work you have been doing.
It is appreciated. Thank you.
Peace and Light,

every ACF features new Casting Director and Agent drop-off bins
- Attend a seminar
- Audition for up to four casting
professionals that night
Here is how it works:
The Drop-Offs/Mail-Ins:
Do you want to eliminate
the tedious mass mailings from your life? If so, let us do the work for
you. Bring 20 headshots and résumés and drop them off to
us in our bins any time between 6 and 9 P.M. The cost is just $10—less
than if you were doing your own mass mailing, and a lot more convenient.
