Kids On Camera TV/Film Acting & Modeling School

«Kids on Camera» is simply WONDERFUL! Judy Berlin really knows show business and is well connected! My teenager took the acting series of courses and after completion signed on immediately with a top agency! My daughter absolutely LOVED the FUN courses taught by Judy’s team of professionals who really know their stuff! There is nobody like Kids on Camera in the Bay Area. We are fortunate to have such a resource right here in our backyard!

My 6 year old has been attending Kids on Camera since he was 4, he absolutely loves it. Though not our original goal, he was recently signed with a reputable talent agency who saw his pictures and videos that were sent by Judy Berlin, the woman who runs Kids on Camera. Judy loves what she does and really cares about the kids. She has a talented staff who know the business and are very kid friendly when working with children. The class is aimed both at children who like being the center of attention and those who could use a bit of confidence coming out of their shells. In addition to filming «commercials,» they play theater games and develop a nice rapport with one another. When we first went to the information session, I was concerned that the pitch was just aimed at trying to promote their business, but realized as a small business this is their best way to make themselves known. I suppose every company does in one way or another and the proof is in the pudding because my son enjoys it so.

If they are such a «good school» then why does there website suck?! Especially if they are supposed to be a media class!

With all of the opportunities available for self-​improvement these days, there’s absolutely no reason for grown-​ups to be petrified speaking in front of groups of any size. Then again, had they gone to Kids On Camera, it may not have been an issue.
While majority of the children and youth will be working actors/​models, the seasoned team teaches the important aspects of presentation, acting, projection and self-​confidence development. This is especially wonderful during that transition into tween and even adulthood, but there are programs from 4yrs through high school.
Judy Berlin and her team — teachers who are professional actors and guest teachers who are exceptionally respected in their industry specialties — keep the children engaged and inspired.

We found Kids on Camera quite by accident. We looked up reviews for JRP and were this close to writing them a big check, when one of their very negative reviews said to try someone else who is genuine and really cared about the kids… Judy Berlin’s Kids On Camera. It so happened that they were starting an introductory series (TV-​1) the next month and it was close to our house (classes currently held at the JCC in San Francisco). Alexa started and loved it from day one. She’s gone on to take TV-​2 and TV-​4 along with a few one day workshops. All her teachers have been wonderful and really took time to get to know the kids. She’s made many good friends there and is just starting to look into taking her talents to the next level «in the business.» They do help the kids connect with agents and work opportunities. Alexa’s not looking to be the next Disney star (although Judy has one of her former students as a lead in «Good Luck Charlie») she’s much more confident and I’m certain all that she has learned will help her with her high school theater auditions (her first love).

This is the real deal. My daughter went for three seasons. Then Kids-​On-​Camera had a showcase. And real agents came out, and my daughter got signed to an agency the next week! A few months later, my daughter is already getting work doing commercials, and totally having a great time. And she is properly trained and knows exactly how to behave in professional situations. So worth it. And I’m still in awe.
