FREE Online Seminar - How to Find Film/TV/Theatre Projects That are Right for You

Tuesday, October 18, 2022, 3pm ET / 12pm PT

Join career coach Annie Chadwick and Up-to-Date Actor creator, Abigail Hardin, for an in-depth approach to finding more work.

One of the first steps to creating a successful performance career is knowing what you do best and the unique talent that sets you apart from other actors. This comes from defining your most castable type, crafting an overview description, and targeting projects that are a perfect fit for your unique talent.

This process will lead you to discover and create a targeted list of Film/TV/Theatre projects that need to be on your radar. Finding your type as an actor is an instrumental first step to fast-tracking your career.

As you progress throughout your career, your type may change, evolve, and grow. Actors’ types are not set in stone, but it is important in the beginning to be aware of what yours is so you know how to market yourself. 

In the Q&A Workshop, we will discuss these 5 major steps:

• Sept 1 - Define Your Type and Uniqueness.
• Step 2 - Research Your Current Market.
• Step 3 - Create Your Project List.
• Step 4 - Do Your Marketing Tools Support Your Castable Type?
• Step 5 - Submission Note to Casting Directors 

All attendees, new to the Up-To-Date Actor, will receive a discount code for a 1-Month Full Access Free Trial to the Up-To-Date Actor.
