Publisher's Synopsis
Are you curious about the movie industry? Are you still an amateur what wishes to turn your acting dream into reality? If yes, this book can be your best companion!
In this book, you will be given the behind-the-scenes stories of Quentin Tarantino, Leonardo DiCaprio, Shirley MacLaine, David Carradine and Tony Scott, among many others. This clear-eyed, realistic step-by-step guide offers wisdom on breaking down a scene, standing out at an audition, surviving rejection, creating your own momentum, developing marketing materials, talking to celebrities, working without representation, getting clothing for the red carpet, working outside Los Angeles, and much, much more.
Recently, it has been updated to reflect changes in technology and the industry since the book's original publishing -- with over 70 new pages of material.
In the new chapter, you will discover a comprehensive look at self-taping and a chapter on #MeToo issues covering what to do if you witness an incident or experience harassment. There's also a new section on signing conventions -- how to get started, set up shop, and expand your fan base.
Another new section adds a tool for Breaking Down the Scene, and the Commercials chapter has been rewritten to address changing advertising platforms.
Let's be a Scout and always be prepared - there are no small parts and every part should be invested with the same passion, care and time.
