"This has been an amazing experience that I probably wouldn't otherwise have gotten. We are using top-notch equipment and are being taught by top-notch professionals and I think it's amazing. I'm glad I did it."

"Just this day has sparked a fire that makes me want to go into this industry, makes me want to do film and pursue acting, all of it. It's like a dream that is starting to come true."
"We have learned so much in just a few hours then I ever though we would be able to learn. Even the physical camera and lighting to the emotional story line and themes..."

"I am writing to express my strong support for the Mobile Film School. I find the idea of such an enterprise both unique and unprecedented. It will fill a vital need to make technical film training available beyond the reach of conventional schools. I believe that it will encourage new voices, and empower a whole new batch of filmmakers, ones whose visions and stories might never have been seen otherwise.
I both applaud your plan and believe in it. As a demonstration of my support, I would like to place some of our Film & Video students with you as their 'co-operative education' portion of their Drexel education.
I look forward to the Mobile Film School’s maiden and subsequent voyages, as I believe it will enrich the tapestry of film created in this country. You deserve much praises for your efforts."

Executive Director
Greater Philadelphia Film Office
"What a Brilliant idea! The Mobile Film School is a creative solution to engaging young people in the craft of storytelling through film. Everyone wins, the teachers give to the community that they otherwise couldn’t reach; the kids get to tell their own stories and discover their untapped talent by learning to make movies in their own environment and for (almost) free; and the rest of the world is forever enriched."
