According Jack White, Director of the Academy of Cinema and Television (ACT), many child actors, no matter how adorable they are, have moments on the set when they break character. Most of the time it’s a subtle thing – a glance into the crew, a moment when they don’t react to something on the set, a relatively flat line reading. "What these small miscues make our staff appreciate, though, are the performances of child actors who, even in small roles, are fully committed to the on-camera action on the set."
ACT student Victoria Cosner just landed a large role as the Drowned Girl ghost, one of the few good spirits in the horror film "The Between," and it was the acting training coupled with natural talent and beauty that won the role for her.
Victoria has been on the road to success for some time now. When ACT arranged an audition with Jimmy Villareal with URGE Artists in Beverly Hills some time back, Villareal was immediately impressed and she was introduced to her current Manager, Robert Costanzo. Since that day Victoria has continued to study, audition, and grow as an child actor.
White says, "the staff and instructors at ACT are all pleased to hear that Victoria has landed a good-sized role in the new film for a major Hollywood studio. Her raw talent and beauty have been obvious since the first day she auditioned for admission into the Academy of Cinema and Television."
"Victoria is not an unusual student success story," said White. The talent scouts for the Academy of Cinema and Television know what to look for in a child actor. The raw talent that attracts the attention of trained scouts and staff members is very obvious. Training and developing the natural talent is where the school comes in. ACT hires some of the most talented instructors in the business to guide and enhance the natural talents of its students. Young actors of Victoria’s caliber are the norm at the school. It is just a matter of time and exposure until
additional ACT kids will get their big break.
