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.
