As we told you on Friday, John Orts exclusive ‘On Camera Pilot Audition Technique’ class was down to it’s last few available spots, and as predicted the class sold out early on Friday morning.

As we’ve mentioned before, ABC’s manager of casting John Ort is coming to TVI New York for an exclusive On Camera Pilot Audition Technique class, and his next class, which begins very soon, only has a few spaces left.
