Synopsis
To give all actors more than just a 'thank you for coming today', casting director Paul Russell has written a straightforward guide to surviving and advancing in the entertainment industry. It gives voice to what really goes on behind the audition table and shares practical advice on issues that can frustrate actors throughout their careers. They include marketing, audition behaviour, approaching agents, dealing with rejection, negotiating contracts, financial survival, maintaining health, as well as managing the strong and varied personalities found along the way. Along with Russell's candid advice and observations are his interviews with working actors and agents. They each offer readers a different perspective on the industry.

The is book can really change your Professional outlook
9. Dezember 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
Paul Russell's book apart from being witty and enjoyable has not only given me the extra kick in the seat that I needed but it really motivated me and has set me on the right track. Of course everything in the "Buisness" is subjective and there is no totally right & wrong way of going about things. But Paul Russell's book actually helps you understand and decide for yourself how not to make common mistakes. Mistakes that at first might seem small to you, but come across as unprofessional to the auditors & agents you are presenting yourself for. His approach on how a resume should look and what information it should contain is dead on! Because of Paul Russell I now own my domain, have perfected the look of my resume and am comfortable with just being me when I present myself before any casting individual. Do yourself a favor and get this book. As a professional actor/singer in the theater buisness for almost 8 years, this one is a keeper.

Headshots and Resumes, excellent advice
13. Februar 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
My favorite part of the book was on headshots & resumes. I found the information to be extremely helpful and well worth the cost of the book for this section alone. When you actually sit down and think aboout what the author is talking about it makes a lot of sense. The rest of the book was really not my cup of tea but for the beginning actor or an actor having trouble in specific areas the advice will be very helpful.
