Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
The title has an exploitative ring that perfectly suits the material. The basic premise--that talent is not enough--is sound and the execution is thorough. However, the odds against a successful career in Hollywood films are so unfavorable that only those crazed with ambition are likely to "make it," and they are not likely to need a guide such as this. Sections entitled "Dropping by Peoples' Offices Uninvited," "How To Get Through to People on the Phone," and "Shmoozing with the Stars" inadvertently border on satire. The rest of the information found here can be pieced together from newspaper gossip columns. This book should be perused at the bookstore and kept away from the extremely gullible. Not recommended.

Format:Taschenbuch
A great book for anyone in the entertainment industry, not just the film industry; covers in depth topics such as how to network and how to handle rejection, and how many attempts one can expect to make before securing a position in the industry. Also great advice on entertainment resume writing; I'm already looking forward to the next edition!
Format:Taschenbuch
If you only have enough money to buy one book about show-biz careers, this should be the one! Buzzell brings her background as a career counselor to the table, as well as her stints at various film studios. She knows what YOU need to know and she share that knowledge in an accessible way. I would recommend this book to anyone considering ANY job in the entertainment industry. It's not just for actors or other so-called "talents", it's a must-read for technical/crew people as well.
Format:Taschenbuch
Buzzell's book is like having a personal career counselor at hand 24 hours a day. This is not about headshots or mailrooms or union dues, but about the self-marketing skills necessary to get and keep working in a highly competitive, volatile field -- and keep sane! She homes in on the critical business skills necessary, including positioning yourself, developing a presence and industry image, tested networking techniques for the creative fields, and much more insightful career planning for all areas of the entertianment industry -- above and below line. She also helps you put your goals, triumphs and falls in perspective; a reasonable, attainable strategy to keep working; and honest cautionary tales and motivational techniques. The secret to "making it" is out. But I recommend this book not only to people pursuing Hollywood dreams, but to friends seeking careers in Silicon Valley or any other field where marketing one's self and "soft" skills (e.g., programming, art, design) are critical. Whenever I feel lost in my career, I go back to this book.
