Acting Cheats that Win the Hearts of Casting Directors
Becoming a top actor takes a lot of time and dedication and is not for the faint hearted, prepare yourself for a long hard road ahead full of tears and rejection, apart from that it will be great!.
Amateur Dramatics or Hollywood Fame
So what’s it going to be? A bit part at the local town hall or a shot at the Oscars? This is a critical decision that has to be made right at the start of your career.
An Idea for Extra Cash
Use some simple software for home recording and spend a few short hours making a voice demo. This sort of home studio demo can be used to get voice over work which helps paying the rent when real acting work is scarce. (As it often is!)
Most PCs and all Macs these days come with some kind of home recording studio system built in. While you have the computer setup why not also put together a simple video showing off your acting skills?.
Practice makes perfect, get a mirror…
Most people think that being a great actor is a god given gift and does not take any work. But I would urge you to make your own mind up and take a few short acting lesson, I just know you’ll be glad you did.
It’s Agent time baby!
With a commitment to the big time and acting lessons under your belt, It’s now time to employ the agent who will be your guru in all that happens in your acting adventures. As you may have herd, there are about a million agents out there and only a very small number I would trust with my cat let alone my career. The best thing you can do is look for someone with a good reputation and lots of famous clients, It’s always good to find someone with a good track record of success so you can avoid any dodgy dealers who may try and rip you off.
