Acting is an art, no doubt. But it’s also a business.
And if there’s one thing successful businessmen and women want you to know; it’s that there’s no such thing as an overly saturated market, especially when the “demand” is so high.
And the demand is high.
Even now. Even during a pandemic. Even as productions just start to go back.
We are looking for you.
YOU!
You, the actor, who just had a breakthrough in acting class.
You, the actor, who just signed with an agency you’re excited about.
You, the actor, who just spend 5 hours updating your materials.
We are looking for you.
There are dozens… HUNDREDS… of roles out there waiting for you.
But a mindset of “there are too many people like me” is not the key to unlocking these roles.
This mindset does the opposite.
It keeps them locked up. And it only opens up for those who believe they are worthy of playing them.
If you’ve ever taken a business class, there’s a longstanding motif across the board:
𝗙𝗶𝗴𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿.
Seems easy, right? Be the best you can be?
Good news: It’s that easy.
Bad news: It’s that much work.
Want a list of 10 things you can do to stand out in a sea of aspiring actors? Sure, we can think of a few. But we don’t want you to stray too far from what matters most:
𝘉𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦. 𝘉𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘸.
If you keep coming back to that statement, you will see results. Guaranteed.
Before you brush it off: know there is a whole lot of subtext in that statement and a whole lot of work to be done.
But don’t let your mind fool you…
