ACT NOW! is dedicated to building character and confidence in youth, particularly girls, through improvisation and moviemaking.  The MOVIExperience™ method helps players create their very own improvised movie instantaneously.  They select a site, invent a story, create characters, improvise each scene on camera and screen the results immediately.  The experience leaves participants inspired to play the lead in their own lives. 

We train and certify coaches in the method.  We also license the method to organizations that work with youth.  

Our mission is to help people, especially young girls, change their experience of themselves, so that they feel connected to their authentic power to create, see options, make healthy choices and star in their own lives. 

The MOVIExperience™ has been proven to be over 95% successful in raising self esteem and confidence in at risk populations and 83% successful in the general population.
