UNPARALLELED VALUE
MVA has been voted the #1 beauty school in California five years in a row. With our prestigious and unique build-out MVA combines our production & film studios with the academy. The result is a school that offers ten—and growing—certifications of beauty, styling, and post-production education based in Los Angeles with a direct line to Hollywood. With our powerful positioning, MVA is both the top trend-setter and connected first hand to celebrities and influencers as the mecca of the industry’s cool factor. This creates connections, professional and otherwise, for our students and partners to Hollywood and beyond that will be found no where else. Across our team we average working 300 sets a month (pre-quarantine), with full productions happening daily at our in-house studio. Through MVA’s Affiliate Program our current students and graduates work on these same sets, launching their careers and growing the MVA network to new heights.
MVA EXPERIENCE & CIRRICULUM
Our academy offers a unique experience by teaching our students the top industry tips while working in a functioning studio setting. As the academy also encompasses Michael Vincent’s studio, students will be able to practice their skills on models and celebrities on a regular basis. As a result, students will gain instant experience and earn their first published credits in magazines, movies and other facets of the entertainment industry.
Our current 10 course, each fully certified, curriculum covers everything from makeup artistry, hair, special effects, to digital beauty, photography and so much more. This wealth of knowledge, and our specialized method of teaching it, is what has kept us the #1 in Hollywood, in California and beyond. With the launch of MVA education online, which will kick off with Beauty Artistry, we will be dominating the market on a global scale. Our online education will be available in 80+ countries with benefits including:
A combination of exceptional educational video content, direct engagement with educators & industry professionals, and on-site and production facility work once re-opening is allowed.
24/7 support and an online model that will facilitate direct one-on-one time with the instructor.
TREND MAKERS
In addition to being a school and a studio, we are entrepreneurs with proven reach and success. One of MVA’s latest productions is the official music video for, “Racks 2 Skinny” by the Migos which has almost 16 million views and counting on Youtube alone. The video combined a full studio tour of MVA with a narrative and production quality to match. #TeamMVA was involved not only with the production from a technical standpoint, but hair and makeup as well.
Michael and Tal Vincent are co-authors with Tai Lopez of, Become A Top Model (The Guru's Guide). The book was Tai’s first and help launch his career to what is today, with an estimated net worth in the tens of millions.
As content creators, MVA produces not only educational materials but seminars and workshops with exclusive artists, CEOs and more like our recent seminar with Boxycharm’s CEO Josef Martin.
