I was fortunate to find Todd’s class two years ago after I’d graduated from an acting conservatory and had a good foundation, but needed to hone my comedic skills, type, and knowledge of the business. Not only did I find a supportive, yet challenging teacher, but I also found a group of highly motivated actors that I have since collaborated with. Todd’s classes are always a nurturing environment where you feel free to take chances. I’m excited about Actors Comedy Studio because it’s truly a community and is at the forefront of all of the new media changes in the industry. Instead of trying to catch up to the changes, we’re all carving our own paths.

LA is a great place filled with opportunities, and chances for actors, but at the same time you could easily get lost in all of it. It has only been less than a month since I’ve started attending Todd’s class at the Actors Comedy Studio and it has been a wake up call experience. I feel very focused and have a clear sense of direction of my future acting career. If you feel lost or you don’t know where to start, this is the place to go!

I have had the pleasure of participating in several of Todd’s classes. His outstanding teaching ability is matched by his personal interest in his students. He knows the business and the craft, enabling those under his guidance to achieve goals beyond their expectations. Todd has created a very positive change in my career.

Todd is an amazing teacher! He is so specific, and really helps each actor find their individual strengths. His insights are spot on, not only with comedy technique but especially when he breaks down scripts with you. His audition coaching has been excellent for me! His comedic sensibility is the best in town. The best.
Carolyn Hennesy
I have known, worked with, been directed by and laughed with Todd Rohrbacher for over fifteen years. There is no one in the business of comedy with more chops, skills, and range of experience. He not only knows funny, he is funny, and he can teach funny. Here’s your challenge: do you have what it takes to listen to him and get your butt moving? Because his ability to spot and nurture talent is matched only by his desire to see everyone succeed and that, my friends, in this town, is the rarest combination of all.
Daniel Nemes
I’m an actor from Sydney, Australia and I’ve worked with Todd in L.A. Working with Todd is one of the things I’m most looking forward to when I go back to L.A.

Actors Comedy Studio is way ahead of the curve. Todd Rohrbacher not only provides his students with superb coaching in comedy acting technique but an invaluable wealth of knowledge in regards to the business, and the methods of marketing oneself in entertainment. He is an incredibly organized, commited and talented teacher/coach. His community of students is one of the most supportive, skilled and motivated industry groups in LA.
Erica Hanrahan-Ball
One of the best acting schools around! There have been countless times where I have taken class one week and the lesson in that class immediately helped me in my very next audition. Equal parts resourceful and inspirational. Thank you ACS!!!!

Smart Headshots
with ACS Founder, Todd Rohrbacher
Not Smart!
Very Smart:
Every actor knows they need a winning headshot. Unfortunately, not every actor knows what that means or how to get one. In fact, actors are often lost as to exactly how to prepare for a headshot session, what to offer their photographer during the session or even what to do besides smile for the camera.
There’s much more to it than that. Headshots are an expensive and often confusing aspect of an actor’s career. Knowing how to produce an eye catching headshot that’s also an accurate representation of you can literally mean the difference between having a career or not.
That’s why Todd created Smart Headshots: a one hour consultation that gives actors all the tools and training they need for an effective headshot session.
Aside from headshot basic training, you’ll leave with at least three different breakdowns that you and Todd will create together. They will be reflective of roles in which you’re likely to be cast. Some of the benefits of Smart Headshots:
- Personalized attention to your specific type and abilities.
- Direction on wardrobe, makeup and hair.
- Highlight your essence so you can bring it to the camera.
- Help you articulate what you’re looking for to your photographer.
- Fully understand what your different “Looks” should be and why.
- Tips that any actor can to use to make their headshot session a success.
Todd has prepped hundreds of actors for headshot sessions and is one of only a few instructors in Los Angeles who offers comprehensive, one on one guidance in preparing for one of the most important and expensive aspects of their career.
Ultimately, Smart Headshots puts actors more in touch with who they are in the marketplace. Knowing this in advance of having your pictures taken will save you time, money and spare you endless frustration.

Students enrolled in any ACS class: $95
