Customer Reviews

Good research tool

This book is an easy read with good information and if you are motivated, have a good work ethic and are not worried about making millions TODAY you'll get a lot out of it. Warning-if you are not dying to be in 'the biz' or have an fragile ego, steer clear of entertainment jobs, they are not for the feint of heart.

Excellent Book, Inspiring

I don't agree with the other reviewer, maybe he was looking for a kind of book like K. Callan's. I like this book, because it provides what most aspiring actors, directors, writers need, that is, inspiration. It provide full of ideas to break in showbiz, the importance of networking, the difference with the corporate world. If you are looking for acting books, I recommend Acting is everything, a book full of resources and savvy advice.
