Through his study, his talents branched out to encompass television, film, theater, as well as writing, directing, producing and all forms of theatrical set and light design.

From there, he taught his craft to students in various acting studios, allowing his art form to evolve and others to gain from the knowledge he was forever developing. With growing popularity for this teaching style, Gilardi's skills were taking on a life of their own. It was on February 5th, 2011 that Gilardi developed the Hippo Life movement. Originally designed as a way to motivate his students, little did he know that it would become the inspirational ideal held in the hearts by so many members of the entertainment industry today. "Like a hippo, set a goal. See your goal. Do not move backwards. Do not look side to side. Do not let anything get in your way and most importantly, keep moving forward until you reach your goal." Hippo Life was officially trademarked in late 2012. In January of 2013, he opened the Anthony Gilardi Acting Studio.
