Why Choose The Bootcamp?
Learn the EXACT process that Alex Collins has created, refined, and used over a two-plus decade career that has allowed him to work opposite multiple Oscar, Emmy, Golden Globe and Tony winning actors, working in studio films, on the top TV networks, and in both the Marvel and DC universes, including a two-season arc as Dr. MidNite on CW's Stargirl, and more recently as General Sherman on Apple TV’s Manhunt.
FYI: The FIRST iteration of this class will take place on Thursdays from 2:00pm-3:30pm EST, beginning on 10/2/25 and run for 8 weeks, concluding on 11/20/25.
FYI: For the first 20 people who sign up for this class who have previously purchased the Bootcamp-course, you are eligible for a discount code for the price that you paid for the Bootcamp-course, credited towards the Bootcamp-Class. *You must email me directly for the code prior to purchase.

ABOUT ALEX COLLINS
As an actor, I've worked opposite and learned from some of the very best in the business, including an Oscar winner, a three time Oscar nominee, a two time Oscar nominee, and have been directed by a five time Oscar winner. In addition, I've worked opposite winners of five Golden Globes, five SAG Awards, four Emmys, and a Tony.
As a professional actor and member of SAG-AFTRA for over two decades, an elected member of the Atlanta SAG-AFTRA board, and a chair for a local committee ('22-'24), I've seen this business from all angles, and experienced both successful periods and lean times.
My work has allowed me to perform on HBO, CBS, FOX, the CW, Apple+, AMC, Netflix, BET+, National Geographic, WGN, USA, OWN, Sony, Warner Bros, and Universal. Most notably, I have been given the honor of bringing to life a comic book legend first in print 80 years ago and now on Stargirl on the CW.

ACTOR FINANCES
One of the most important elements in life for everyone, but especially actors, is financial stability and security. Yet, in our industry, it's one of the LEAST TALKED about topics. Why? That made no sense to me, so I decided to create a course to talk about it.
