"Film-making is about translating psychologies into behavior. As a director, I felt a pragmatic need to comprehend the tools, techniques and emotions on the other side of the lens. Recommended by an actress-friend, I stumbled into Kimball Studio. Their technique - rooted in Ballistics - is urgent, discombobulating and violently educational. Like Kelly phrases it: A gym for your acting techniques. Limping out of that first day, I was a rich man and there was no looking back."

"I'm always impressed by The Kimball Studio's commitment to technique. Their students truly understand both auditioning and acting for the camera. Not only is their training first-rate, they also encourage a welcoming and supportive community. "

"Kelly Kimball's studio sets itself apart from all the other big rat pack studios in New York City. The actors are focused and have great depth. Truly a one of a kind place in the big city."

"It is always a pleasure to be introduced to actors at Kimball Studio. The growth mindset, professionalism and the depth of training is exhibited in each actor's scene work. The care that goes into helping an actor find their lane and their interests is truly rare. Helping someone find their true authentic voice in a very hard business is what makes this Studio different and really helps make the actor's work pop. "

“Kimball Studio provides actors with a solid on-camera acting foundation built on technique. I’m consistently impressed with the talent that comes out of their program. They foster a collaborative and supportive environment in which the actors are able to learn and grow.”

"The on-camera training curriculum created by Kimball Studio is state of the art. Their actors understand the camera and how to work truthfully in this medium in a way that makes an immediate impact."
