Book excerpt: "Thank you Matt for being there to give me guidance and opening my eyes to how much more I can learn to be a better actress."Sofia Wylie, Actress Forget everything you think you know about the acting industry. No matter what "they" say, a successful career in the acting profession is actually possible for anyone. The most common reasons most actors don't "make it" are simply that they...- Were unsure where to start or what to do on a daily basis.- Never learned to market, organize, produce, and brand themselves. - Didn't run their careers like a business. - Quit on their dreams assuming they weren't good enough.- Lacked the winning mindset needed to endure the rejections that lead to success. Acting is My Day Job: Seven Strategies to Market and Make Money as an Actor provides actionable strategies to build momentum, capitalize on early success, and build the habits required to establish a lasting acting career. Matthew Dearing delivers the truth about what it takes to be a working actor, leaving no more room for regret and excuses."The brutal truth - talent, good looks and desire aren't enough. You must develop strategies to monetize doing what you LOVE. Every actor should read and re-read this book." - JEREMY A. LOPEZ PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER, VANGELIS FILMS

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Actor's Business Plan is a self-directed practical guide for actors graduating from formal training programs, as well as for those already in the business whose careers need to move ahead more successfully. Using the familiar language of acting training, the book offers a method for the achievement of dreams through a five-year life and career plan giving positive steps to develop a happy life as an actor and as a person. It assists performers to flourish using the same kind of business/career planning that is a necessary part of life for entrepreneurs and business people. This introduction to the acting industry provides essential knowledge not only for how the business actually works, but also describes what casting directors, agents, and managers do, demystifies the role of unions, discusses how much things cost, and offers advice on branding and marketing strategies. It differs from other such handbooks in that it addresses the everyday issues of life, money, and jobs that so frequently destroy an actor's career before it is even begun. While addressing NYC and LA, the guide also gives a regional breakdown for those actors who may wish to begin careers or to settle in other cities. It is loaded with personal stories, and interviews with actors, casting directors, and agents from throughout the US. The Actor's Business Plan is the answer to the common complaint by students that they were not taught how to negotiate the show business world while at school. It is the perfect antidote for this problem and can easily fit into a ten or a thirteen-week class syllabus. Offering support as a personal career coach, empowering the actor to take concrete steps towards their life and career dreams, The Actor's Business Plan: A Career Guide for the Acting Life is a must-have book for actors who are determined to be a part of the professional world .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretically, the actor ought to be more sound in mind and body than other people, since he learns to understand the psychological problems of human beings when putting his own passions, his loves, fears, and rages to work in the service of the characters he plays. He will learn to face himself, to hide nothing from himself -- and to do so takes an insatiable curiosity about the human condition. from the Prologue Uta Hagen, one of the world's most renowned stage actresses, has also taught acting for more than forty years at the HB Studio in New York. Her first book, Respect for Acting, published in 1973, is still in print and has sold more than 150,000 copies. In her new book, A Challenge for the Actor, she greatly expands her thinking about acting in a work that brings the full flowering of her artistry, both as an actor and as a teacher. She raises the issue of the actor's goals and examines the specifics of the actor's techniques. She goes on to consider the actor's relationship to the physical and psychological senses. There is a brilliantly conceived section on the animation of the body and mind, of listening and talking, and the concept of expectation. But perhaps the most useful sections in this book are the exercises that Uta Hagen has created and elaborated to help the actor learn his craft. The exercises deal with developing the actor's physical destination in a role; making changes in the self serviceable in the creation of a character; recreating physical sensations; bringing the outdoors on stage; finding occupation while waiting; talking to oneself and the audience; and employing historical imagination. The scope and range of Uta Hagen here is extraordinary. Her years of acting and teaching have made her as finely seasoned an artist as the theatre has produced.

Book excerpt: How to Get an Acting Job outside of New York and Hollywood is a non-fiction book helping actors and print models find work outside of the traditional markets of New York and Hollywood. This book provides valuable interviews with directors, TV and video producers, photographers, theatre producers and actors. A must read for anyone who wants to find work in local markets in the field of TV commercials, print modelling and corporate videos. This book gives important and practical advice to those seeking local TV "stardom." Review Practical, readable and instructive, this book holds the reader's attention. Even for the person who is not particularly interested in the topic, the author's clear and concise writing style readily offers interesting information. One strong asset of this informational book is that it gave enough detail to the reader to move forward in the goal towards acting, but not so much as to bog the reader down with unnecessary detail. Mr. Harris does meet the goals of his book that were promised in the introduction. Those goals included exploring creative ways of producing viable, artistic and theatrical experiences, exploring multimedia opportunities and to help artists and actors look for opportunities right where they live. The sentence structures were designed for a "quick" read and that is what the reader experiences. The book cover does draw the reader to the book and the format and structure of the chapters is done well. For a person interested in the topic, this book is a helpful resource. -Writer's Digest
