Many aspiring actors have the idea that once you get an agent, you can sit back and wait for the phone to ring. What are the actors’ responsibilities after signing with an agent?
Let us face it… the agent only gets 10% of your income. That means that 90% of the perspiration and inspiration has to come from YOU! You have to do the hustle, man. After all, I have not retired yet!! Ha! So watch out! All kidding aside, casting directors are ALWAYS looking for “the new kid in town”. The industry is always looking for good material, so do not shy away or let the fact that this is a small and very select, tight-knit group. I have my own professional challenges too. For example, how to keep it fresh and NOT sound like Bart, Ralph, Nelson, Rodd, Kearney, Database, Maggie, Chuckie, etc. when I audition for other characters. It is harder than you think. Everyone has his/her own obstacles to overcome. The idea is to JUST DO IT.
