Do you work on your acting career every day? Or are there days when you're too overwhelmed by the rest of your life?

I get it.

The trick is not ask, "Do I have time to work on my acting career today," it's to ask, "WHICH part of my career do I have time to work on today?"

Great tips in this 🧵

I've been working as a talent agent for 15 years, and am now a partner at a strong agency with offices in LA, New York, and Chicago.

@marciliroff @Totallysamsays @davidscotthogan @ericasbreamcast @DanielleCasting That auto white balance could be an issue, but a gray background isn't the only solution. A quick white balance in an editing app may do the trick, or use a camera app like FilmicPro to record that allows you to white balance manually.

[Working.Actor @workingdotactor]

So good 🤣

Congrats to all #Emmy nominees!

[laurie records casting @laurierecords]

there's confusion about commercial slates for self tapes: close/chest up smile & say your full name (no agent/stats/role/location, unless requested). full body shot (smile/say nothing). THAT'S IT. no need to show profiles/hands or slate before each take, unless requested.

Hey #Actors! You do NOT have to list your hair and eye color on your resume. This is left over from when headshots were black and white and we couldn't see the actual color of your hair and eyes! Leave room for more credits :)
