CURIOUS? OR SERIOUS?

|
ATTITUDE
You must possess or develop the attitude of a professional.
APTITUDE
You must display the potential for growth with a willingness to learn this industry from the inside-out.
ALTITUDE
How far you go in your chosen field (actor, model, singer, musician, writer, director, moviemaker, performers, etc) will
be determined by you and the actions that you undertake to move forward from a solid foundation.
SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
A continuous course of training will help you to develop and
maintain the skills necessary to compete.
Professionals understand the value of training as a necessity not a luxury.
You cannot afford to become 'rusty' or 'behind the times'.
EXPERIENCES
Every activity that you engage in can help
to hone your skills development.
Accept every opportunity to be on stage, in front of a camera, on a movie set, in
a competition, at an audition, etc.
"Credits" will be worth more to you than "money" when it comes to building a legitimate
resume.

MARKETABLE IMAGE
You must possess the tools of the trade you have selected. If
you don't have them, how can you compete with those who do?
Packaging doesn't just happen, it takes expertise, planning
and execution. "It is better to be prepared for an opportunity than to have an opportunity and not be prepared."
PROMOTIONS
You must participate in the marketing of your talent by making public appearances, showcasing your talents and documenting
your activities.
A photo journal provides a visual documentation that will serve you well and will increase your chances
of promotional opportunities.
DESIRE
Your sincere desire to be involved in the entertainment industry will be
exhibited by your actions.
Too often, we hear people say, "If they give me a lot of money, I'll deliver an excellent
performance." Those with a burning desire will develop an excellent performance so that they can earn the 'big bucks'.
No
one can want success for you MORE than you want it for yourself, not your manager, not your agent, and not your supporters.
Desire is an inside job.
APPRECIATION
On your way to the 'top' or 'stardom' or wherever you seek to go, don't
forget the "little people", or those who help you on the way up for you never know when you will see or need them again...on
the way down.
There are many ways to show appreciation, but the simpliest is a "THANK-YOU"! A written note is still
the most memorable gesture of appreciation. The spoken words are also powerful and shouldn't be forgotten.
