Having an interest in camera work and filming making is such a specific hobbie and not always easy to find for a child of 11- finding Act2Cam has been the best thing, my daughter is excited to attend each week and leaves with such a buzz. The summer film shoot has been such an amazing experience for her and the staff show such care and enthusiasm towards all the children!Posted on Google teresa lewisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son Mason started about 4 months ago. He does filmmaking and Drama class and really loves both. he has grown in confidence and is still growing at every class. He's currently doing the summer camp film and loved been director/ sound person. he's excited to be part of a team and looking forward to his acting part. he's only young and sometimes get nervous doing stuff infront of a crowd The staff are amazing they listen to him and make him feel more confident , no pressure is put on him if he dosent do it. he will get there in his own time I'm sure , can't wait to see the film once its complete 😍. great company 👌Posted on Google Sophia ForsterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ACT 2 CAM has given our son such brilliant confidence and new transferable skills. The main teacher Steve is very calm and understanding and brilliant with neurodiverse children. I would recommend their classes with anyone!Posted on Google S MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our son LM has been attending Act2Cam for a number years and it’s made a real difference. Act2Cam has been welcoming and consistently inclusive — the team has supported him, with patience and understanding. Over time we have seen his confidence grow and can tell he looks forward to sessions. His teachers at his middle school praised him on his ability to stand up and talk. He often tells us he loves drama and likes to act. He is looking forward to being part of a school production in this first year of high school. Thank you Steve, Tanya and team you can tell the care and effort you put into Act2cam. Highly recommended.Posted on Google Emma ChipchaseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter thrived in this drama class and always loved attending on a Saturday morning. She made lots of new friends, developed hugely in confidence and most importantly of all had lots of fun! Thank you to the supportive, friendly and talented staff at Act 2 Cam for making this club such a great place to be part of.Posted on Google Diane WyattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sadly she won't be returning to your Sat sessions as she has other commitments on a Saturday morning now which clash. She has absolutely loved her time with Act2Cam and has learned so much. Thank you for everything you have done xPosted on Google Lauren TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Act 2 Cam is a fantastic group which has helped grow my daughters confidence so much. The teachers are all very fun, kind and caring and the students are very welcoming and friendly. I would highly recommend 👌Posted on Google Kenny HendersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son, Alfie, has been attending Act2Cam for 4 years plus and he has enjoyed the experience and developed into a confident young man who has now joined the police cadets and is also a member of Northumberland Youth parliament. He enjoys standing and delivering speeches on many topics, many of which are based on personal experience. I’m sure that this wouldn’t have happened if he hadn’t attended Act2Cam as this has certainly helped with his character and confidence. I would like to thank Steve, Tanya and the team for the effort that they put into helping Alfie become the person he is.Posted on Google Gemma TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
