In the words of our creative community.

"I’ve been acting for nine years and I’ve progressed more in the last two years learning from Andrew at ALC Acting Studio than I did in the previous several years combined. My confidence in auditioning has grown tremendously and I’ve also gained a strong understanding of the business side of acting... The training has helped me grow not just as an actor but as a well rounded creative."

It’s not just an acting class. It’s a studio movement that is changing the Buffalo market. We are composed of writers, directors, actors, editors and more. Creating original content and mind-blowing art."

MADISEN ZABAWA

"I didn’t know what to expect walking into ALC Studio... I have never felt more welcomed, more supported, and more understood in my pursuit of desire to create. ALC is run by a working Hollywood actor who has worked side-by-side with some of the biggest names in the business... They show you how to harness your untapped talent, build your confidence on camera, and help you realize your own potential. Run, don’t walk, to ALC!!"

BRETT YOUNG

"ALC Acting Studio is the perfect space for any performer to build confidence and hone their craft. I've been attending for 2 years and feel that I have immensely grown as an actor. I've gained inspiration and insight for my self-tapes, knowledge of what to expect when working on set, and a supporting community of performers with so much passion for the craft. I absolutely recommend for any WNY actor."

VICKIE

"ALC Acting Studio is top notch in every way!! From the original script material to the professionally shot scene work, they provide an environment that is fun, collective, challenging and cathartic…a place where the skill and the art of the craft are both recognized as equally important in helping you reach your potential. Check it out, you won’t be disappointed!"

SCOTT BOTTONI

"Through Andrew’s direction, patience and kindness I know I have grown as an actress and a person. Then I met Jen. She is a remarkable lady with a big heart! I feel honored and blessed to have landed here. The ALC Studio is not a class, it is an elevation movement of people creating art. THERE IS NO LIMIT TO WHAT WE CAN ACHIEVE!"

Meet Andrew and Jennifer Caldwell. Buffalo based. Industry experienced. Invested in your growth.

Andrew Lewis Caldwell

ANDREW LEWIS CALDWELL

CO-FOUNDER // HEAD COACH

Andrew Lewis Caldwell was born and raised in Flint, Michigan. At an early age, he developed a love for the arts—specifically acting and comedy. He moved to Los Angeles at the age of 15 and soon began working on Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel. Andrew created and ran his own sketch comedy show, LOL, where he discovered his passion for teaching, developing talent, and collaborating with others who shared his dream of working in entertainment.

Over the past 20 years, Andrew has dedicated himself to honing his craft, earning over 80 credits in film and television. Some of the roles he is most proud of include his roles in Spider-Man Noir, The Matrix Resurrections, Haunt, Henry Danger, Hannah Montana, iZombie, College, The Librarians, Transformers, and How I Met Your Mother.

Now based in Buffalo, NY, where he lives with his family, Andrew continues to work both on set and as a mentor to aspiring actors. When he's not acting, he is passionate about sharing his knowledge and collaborating with others to create memorable projects. His classes provide a creative and unique outlet for self-expression and teaches the techniques needed to impress casting directors and build the confidence required to succeed in the industry.

"Dreams come true when preparation meets opportunity."

Jennifer Caldwell

JENNIFER CALDWELL

CO-FOUNDER // YOUTH DIRECTOR

Jennifer Caldwell is a Buffalo, New York native with a lifelong passion for the performing arts. From a young age, she trained in multiple dance styles while also studying acting, attending musical theater camps, and taking vocal lessons.

While pursuing a degree in Communications and Media Arts, Jennifer became an NFL Cheerleader for the Buffalo Bills before moving to Los Angeles, California, where she spent 10 years expanding her experience in entertainment. While on the West Coast, she worked with major sports organizations, including her role as a UFC Ring Girl on The Ultimate Fighter TV show and training in wrestling with WOW—Women of Wrestling. She also appeared in numerous productions, music videos, commercials, and print/modeling campaigns.

Since returning to New York, Jennifer’s passion has evolved into teaching and mentoring the next generation of performers as well as advocating for children in foster care in her role as a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) volunteer.
