To The Staff of Hollywood Group,
Hi, it’s Rose Safarian and I am writing this letter with hopes that my appreciation for what you and your staff have done for not only my child but for many other young aspiring actors. You have embedded your patience, enthusiasm, and perpetual drive for success in Raffi’s mind and I am very thankful.
I have seen a completely positive character change in my son. You have brought out what has been dormant. His talent was hibernating and gave him that wake up call. For that I am ever so grateful. This program has enabled our youth to become more independent. Nevertheless, I also would like to thank you for allowing the parents to play such a pivotal and active role in the process. Once again, thank you so much for everything. I am sure Raffi will always look up to you as a mentor, friend, leader and most importantly, and as actor.
Raffi has done background jobs for Bernie Mac, and a new Disney Channel Show called “ Hannah Montana” which will run its first episode in March. He has done and is doing two college plays at Pierce College, one is “Enemy of the People” and the other is “James and the Giant Peach” and two plays at school. To Perla, thank your for the times we called for questions and you gave us the answers. You helped us book Showcases and classes with Apodaca and Vaughn. To John and Candice, thank you for the extra moral support you have to my son before he went in front of the agents, and especially encouraging him and others to never give up hope. With hard work and determination you will succeed. To Julie, thank you for helping, Raffi, type up his own resume. Thank you, both Chris Apodaca and Chris Vaughn for the lessons they have taught Raffi, especially performing a commercial in front of the camera and freely expressing himself without being embarrassed. He loves to impersonate people in our everyday lives, loves to speak publicly, and act from his heart. He was especially happy when after his fifth showcase, he got positive results from representative, Christina Ferra-Gilmore. Thank you once again Hollywood Group for your time and dedication.
