Simply put, Kristy takes actors who bring their ‘A’ Game and it turns into A+! S.M. – Feature Film Director

Things People Are Saying About Kristy

You have to work with the reality of where you are right now. You have to keep working to go to the next step. If, by some miracle you get to bypass steps, that is wonderful, but prepare yourself because you are going to have to work that much harder to maintain that new level.

The only trait more compelling than Kristina’s passion for the craft is her dedication to the actor. She worked tirelessly on and off set with the actors to shape solid performances from an enigmatic script and is the only acting coach I know who works more hours than I do in production! Kristina began the film with one actor, but by the end of the shoot her wisdom and support was sought after by them all. Her understanding of each aspect of film, from writing to production to direction, enables Kristina to push her clients and take a character off the paper and construct it for an audience, the camera, and the world that it was meant for.

Things People Are Saying About Kristy

Kristy is incredible to have on set! I've never felt more prepared for a role than when we prep before and also when she is there working with me. I'm such a believer in her ability to bring out the best actor in me that I've brought Kristy to set with me for two separate movies since we started working together. She thoroughly understands both the character and me, which is why she's so successful at helping me be so prepared and bringing my A game. She's simply one of the best and also a real treat to have there as a friend who is so easy to get along with. Love her. K.L. - Feature Film Actor

As a coach, I will work my ass off for you and match you every step of the way. But I will not do the work for you, if you don’t work hard then I am not the coach for you.

Having Kristina on set is amazing. She has this incredibly stealth way of watching and supporting the process. Sometimes I wouldn't even know she was in the room and then she'd come up and whisper a secret key that helped unlock a moment or an entire scene. It's just wonderful having someone who is solely there to help actors make a scene richer. To help you dig up more of the secrets and do your best work. J.W.- Award Winning Actress

In terms of preparing actors for the steps they want to take in their career, nobody is more through and capable than Kristy. H.B. – Actor

Things People Are Saying About Kristy

Do you ever wonder why mediocre actors often work more than great actors? Mediocrity is fairly consistent and when it drops out, it just isn’t that noticeable. But when we see great actors and they drop out we are so disappointed because we have tasted what is possible. Now, I don’t recommend you dropping down to the level of a mediocre actor, but be fucking consistent in your greatness. Consistency equals longevity in your acting career.

We had Kristy on location of my most recent production and I can't even begin to imagine that set without her energy. She knows exactly when to make herself heard and when to just let her presence be enough. I would highly recommend her and can't wait to work with her again. A.S.- Executive Producer of Feature Films

Things People Are Saying About Kristy

I had never been on set with an acting coach before. Now I think every set should have one. Not only was Kristina completely dedicated to her client, perceptive, never intrusive, always supportive, but she has a genuine love of the 'company' that helps bring all the actors together in a spirit of shared endeavor. J.B. – Actor (who has perhaps been working as a professional actor longer than Kristy has been alive)

Things People Are Saying About Kristy

You’re acting ability only counts for about one fifth of your acting career. There is a level of good enough acting that you need to reach in order to be bookable. Once you are past that point, it has a lot more to do with whether or not you’re working the business side of ‘show business.’ You must understand everything else that you need to be doing to make your acting career happen besides just good acting.

Things Kristy is Guilty of Saying

You need to take care of yourself ON SET. No one is going to champion you. Know what the fuck is going on and what should be going on.

I know it is scary to truly prepare to the best of your ability and face rejection, but if you only partially prepare your give yourself excuse as well a way to punish yourself later. The fact is, if you truly give it your all, it is much easier to walk away knowing that you did everything you could. So do it to the best of your ability and move on to the next job!
