Product Description

Product Description

This celebrated survival guide for actors is still considered "the Bible of the Biz" -- the most comprehensive book on the business of acting, informed by an inside view of how casting decisions are actually made -- and it has now been updated and expanded to cover new on-line ways actors can promote their picture, resume and video clips; interviewing and auditioning tips for the new crop of young actors; enhancing one's image; and finding jobs in emerging markets. Of course, the book still draws from dozens of industry professionals for authoritative advice on financial survival, networking, meeting agents and casting directors, the performing unions, selecting a wardrobe, studying a role -- all the essential information actors have steadily relied on since 1987.

Look no further. This is the book that tells it like it is. You can spare yourself years of needless mistakes by taking the advice in this book to heart. Take it from two of the industry's top professionals...the important information every actor needs to succeed. This book could mean the difference between pounding the pavement and signing the contract!

Just moving to NYC, Los Angeles, or Chicago? Don't even think about starting out in the acting world with out reading Mari Lyn Henry's & Lynne Roger's book. It's the bible of the Acting Biz and can save you much time, money, and pain. It has it all... everything from headshots to getting an agent. Don't make a move unless you own it.
