Favorite Piece of Advice

While learning the craft is important, a successful actor must also understand the business side of “show business.” For instance, auditions are much more possible when you supply an actor's headshot, acting resume (with quality training), and demo reel. Those marketing materials are just one part of what can be considered “tools of the trade.” Actors are storytellers, but they need to understand that their resume also tells a story! This industry is all about who you know and who you train with.
