Testimonials
Johnny’s class was fantastic. I had a great time and learnt so much about the UK industry. I’m sure there’s more to learn, but this was a great start and experience. The class was really good value too, especially for the amount of info and time he spends thoroughly going over everything. Can’t recommend this class enough, and have nothing bad to say about it or Johnny. Extremely satisfied and would recommend to anyone looking for some tips and info on the industry in the UK. - Cooper Hall
If you're planning to move to the UK in the future, or even just curious about how the UK creative industry works, you need to go to Johnny Ong's workshop. He not only gave us a valuable insight into the inner workings of the UK industry (generously answering all questions we could possibly throw at him), but his friendly attitude and honest desire for all attendees to succeed, meant that performing my assigned scene was an absolute joy, free from the usual nerves that tend to creep up on me at casting workshops. - Kate Jirelle
Johnny Ong was a wealth of information about what is happening in the UK film and television industry. His workshop was really well organised with up-to-date information as well as examples. On top of that - a really nice guy!! Would highly recommend doing one of his workshops. - Dianne Pastuszak
