How To Seize Every Opportunity

In my experience, I’ve met a lot of people in the business. Many of their experiences are very inspiring and informative, and I often share their stories with others as valuable lessons about the entertainment industry.

One of my friends has been pursuing a career as an actor for years. He’s landed roles in television, film and on stage. And even though he’s very talented and has had lots of great opportunities, sometimes he goes for months without booking a role. And that can be pretty hard on his wallet. But he manages to keep his spirits up by continuing to work hard, and explore all of the opportunities that come his way.

Recently while networking at a party, he met some agents from a prominent voiceover agency in Los Angeles. While voice acting wasn’t something he’d done before, he was very interested in learning more about it. He managed to get a meeting with the agency, and within a couple of weeks he’d been signed to the agency and auditioned for and booked his first voiceover job – a Sprint commercial!

While my friend’s ultimate goal is to be an icon on the silver screen, making millions of dollars per picture, and being featured on the cover of every major magazines, it takes time to amass that type of fame. So until then, he makes a habit of exploring all possible paths to stardom, and taking advantage of any opportunity that comes his way. It’s a philosophy that has worked for him, and I’m sure it will work for you too.

We have tons of opportunities listed on our website for you to explore. Visit Star Search Casting ( www.StarSearchCasting.com ) today and find out what types of opportunities await you. Good luck!
