Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Filled with essential advice and highlighting pitfalls to avoid, Acting Professionally gives a clear understanding of how acting careers are built and sustained.

Now in its 9th edition, this book has become the leading book in the field since the first edition published in 1972.

Critically, this new edition reflects the vital changes in the industry as a result of the Black Lives Matter, Time's Up and MeToo movements, and the Covid-19 pandemic. This new edition acknowledges and seeks to address the challenges of the industry often faced by actors when it comes to race, ethnicity, gender, diversity, and sexuality. It includes an extensive new section on the industry to reflect the 21st century, including signposting new resources and insights for the young actor, and considers the shifting landscape and opportunities offered by TV streaming, films, voiceover, internet, audiobooks, and podcasts. This 9th edition speaks to the changed landscape of unions, representation, self-tape auditioning and other best and up to date practices in the industry, ensuring that it's a book that's useful, relevant and accessible to every actor starting out today.

Recenzii

Of all the books on the subject, Acting Professionally is by far the most comprehensive and thorough.
It is the leading book of its kind, and certainly the best available resource for young actors who wish to begin their professional careers.
The most straightforward, accurate, and honest description of what the acting business is like in the United States and what it takes to break into it.
Where Acting Professionally differs from other texts on the market today is that it provides the most current statistics and information covering every aspect of the profession, coupled with the author's invaluably honest description of the business.
