We had free tickets for the 3 pm taping. When you arrive, the check through process can be a bit…read moreover the top but I understand that. My major grip with them is the hospitality. We arrived around 2:30 and was there until 9:00 pm for the taping of 2 shows. Not even a cracker was provided to eat! Cheap, ghetto and classless is what I call it! There is not even a vending machine. I never saw on any correspondence that taping would be that long and nothing to snack on available. Tyler Perry, Steve Harvey and Family Feud bring in toooo much money for not even a small pack of peanut butter crackers, a granola bar or even a 25 cent bag of chips to be served!!! I was totally disgusted and turned off by this because although it was a free taping----you wouldn't be able to do it without a live audience!! A little bit of appreciation for 7-8 hours of your time would have been nice. The staff seemed mean, over worked and underpaid. No smiles other than the production manager who had a curly natural fro ponytail. There was a heavyset black guy with a black winter beanie cap on that told my daughter the Smart Pop popcorn was for people who were there all day.! Well wtf do you call 2-9pm. Then to make matters worst, the staff and family members of the contestants are hot lunches in our faces. It was so classless! Steve Harvey and the hype man were so cool though and really provide for lots of laughs. Steve even left us on a spiritual note. He is definitely a natural comedian and speaker. Now that was a 5 star experience! Just Steve, hypeman, music, and the show itself 5 stars! The production company and the professionalism and hospitality of this place is a 3 and that's being nice. Overall, moving forward I would not recommend spending your precious off day setting around starving all day to see the show. I'll just watch from home but should you happen to read my review and go------ Eat a heavy meal before hand bc these cheap ass folks will not even provide a saltine cracker. If times are that hard they should just stop taping. I went to a few live taping and they at least provide light snacks via vending machine or free lay out. Despicable and changed the way I look at Tyler Perry Studios. Production company needs to get it together. Would never return and don't recommend!

The show is awesome and Steve is so funny! I really enjoyed if you wonna laugh and gave a good time…read morethis is a good show to be able to attend is awesome

I have taped with Compass several times and each time--I am literally blown away by how great the…read moreservice is. I have had more than a few occasions where I need to put an audition on tape asap and get it out same day etc...we all know how it goes...and although there are several options for taping around town--I have found Compass to be the most professional by far. Every time I have emailed them regarding a same day appointment or a really tight deadline they respond to me within the hour (maximum!) That's pretty awesome when your under the gun. In addition to the super professional service, they are nice--genuinely so...helpful and actually care about your audition and your satisfaction. Add to this that Compass offers great rates, discounts for SAG actors and great deals for repeat customers and they get my business every time. I have had the pleasure of working with Eric and Lindsey--both are phenomenal! As an added bonus there is free parking in their lot :)

I scheduled my taping online, and their system is super user-friendly. They offer extended hours,…read morewhich is awesome for those with full schedules. I had the pleasure of taping with both Eric and Hannah (on separate occasions). They were both professional, patient and paid careful attention to detail. The environment is comfortable and conducive to the creative process. I booked both jobs, directly from my initial taping! I highly recommend Compass to anyone seeking a great taping environment, superior quality and excellent service.

I really love and enjoy this place. This is the place where actors can go if they need auditions…read moreshot at a very reasonable price. I will be also starting an actors class there next month as I'm leaving my current studio. Depending on what type of script you have for an audition, sometimes you may not be able to shoot it at home yourself. The audition shoots are $15 for 10 mins, or $25 for 20 minutes, and $50 for 40 minutes. That's something I've never seen happen before as far as an audition being 40 minutes. There's an acting instructor there by the name of Angela Davis who is very GREAT and REALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE as it pertains to acting. She's going to be my new instructor. For any of you who are looking for a place to shoot an audition or maybe attend acting class, check this place out. They also offer Zoom classes for those of you who don't feel comfortable due to the pandemic that's fading away. Next time I go, I'll be able to pick up a few pics.

I have been going to Higher elevation for 4 years now and I will not go anywhere else! The quality…read moreof their tapes and technology is state of the art. I love being able to schedule an audition being able to schedule an audition whether it be in advance or last minute and they're always available 6 days a week even at night. It is cost-effective offering a monthly rate to tape instead of for each audition. Other taping services I've tried had limited days/time or they weren't open late. Not at Higher elevation! They really care about actors and want to see us succeed. When I tape at home it takes me forever to record it, edit, label m and upload it. I've made several mistakes. But being at Higher elevation alleviates all that. They're always prompt, always label my tapes correctly and I've never encountered a mistake. Another thing that I love is Steven's attitude and his employees is always positive and uplifting. I've gone to taping services where they were having a bad day or rushing me and we know as actors we need to be in a comfortable supportive environment. I'm grateful to be part of their monthly membership and I highly recommend it because you won't regret it.

My favorite part about working with Eric (have done so many times over the past years) is his…read moreprofessionalism and artistry. As a performer, it's difficult to find a producer who truly values your input while using his expertise to take your music to the next level. Eric's years of experience and ear for both the music AND artist allow him to bring out the best in people. He captures the vision for a project without saturating the record with every possible idea. This kind of precision is difficult to achieve. When we work together, I feel like all my ideas are encouraged and heard. At the same time, his thoughtful insights afford me the chance to stretch my own creativity in an easy, collaborative way. The environment at Groove Tunes (including of course the great equipment/gear/studio setup itself) affords this balance of creating and refining. Both elements are so crucial to a great project, and Eric gets them so well. Looking forward to next time!

Eric is as good as it gets! This was my first professional recording I've done and I cant speak…read morehighly enough of my experience at Groove Tunes. Eric took time and walked me through every step of the way and delivered a great product. He is very knowledgeable and is truly a master of his craft. With his help my project came out ahead of schedule and under the amount I was quoted. I wont lie, this studio isn't the cheapest (its fairly priced), but this studio is by FAR the best value you can get in the price range. My friends and family can't believe the quality and I am beyond satisfied with how my project came out. If you're more of a singer/songwriter or Rock 'n Roll act (this is not a rap/R&B studio) do yourself a favor and check Groove Tunes out.
