The new year has arrived, and I am doubling down on my efforts to provide you with the kind of inside information that might make all the difference in your career. There are so many advice books for actors, and most of them are written by people who have no business giving advice to anyone. At least here, you know you’re getting the straight dope from the real deal.
Now, I’m sure you made a list of resolutions last week, and maybe finding an agent was at the top of that list. Or maybe finding a new agent was your goal. Either way, I’d like to kick off 2017 with some basic guidance on how to send out a submission to someone like me.
My office, along with the rest of the industry, was closed for the last two weeks. But you know what? During that time, I received 72 email submissions and 12 hard-copy submissions. I’m not sure what the logic behind them was, but I deleted and threw out every single one. I would never want to represent a person who can’t enjoy the holidays without focusing on representation.
But now that I’m back at work, I will look at every submission that comes my way because it’s been my experience that every now and then, there’s a nugget of gold inside that
