ACTING IN LA by Kristina Sexton is a nice introduction to breaking into the Hollywood acting scene.
You are from a small town, a small high school, but you were the star of the stage in every production. You knew all your lines and, more over, how to deliver them for greatest impact. Your voice was great, never a dropped note, and you could emote through the song into having the audience eating from your hand. With dancing you were good enough naturally to allow you to hoof it through any production without making a fool or yourself. Be it comedy, drama, musical, farce, whatever, you were the lead people came to see.
And they all said you should go to Hollywood where your talents would make you a superstar.
They just didn’t tell you how to break into the biz.
Ms. Sexton gives you a guide to the working world of the movies and television. She has been a working actor in several movies and several television series as well as writing, director and producing several small movies of her own. It appears her knowledge has been hard won, which is great for you as she shines lights onto the right doors and avenues of approach to allow you to smoothly transition from small time to big screen. Starting with a general view of how Hollywood works, she guides you into the world of unions, workshops, getting an agent, day jobs and, most important of all for the staring actor, money.
Using her own and others experiences, with a great deal of wit, a dash of cynicism, and many lessons from the school of hard knocks, Ms. sexton gives you a good grasp on the “How To” of being a working actor.
She isn’t trying to make you a better actor, which is the true method of achievement in showbiz. But she helps you to not waste time, energy, and that small amount of money you’ve been saving up, allowing you to focus on the important things, like actually acting.
