ACT! is a must have for anyone new to the film industry. It was developed by a seasoned acting professional, Ingrid Torrance, specifically to provide a new actor with everything they need to get started on turning their dreams into reality. This comprehensive, easy-to-follow book will help an actor with the necessary steps to take and where to start in the entertainment industry.
Actor and writer Ingrid Torrance has been in the entertainment industry for over 15 years and knows the ins and outs of how to make it or break it. The actor will learn how to kick start their career by taking the right steps first, learning what to do and what not to do at an audition and glean a basic understanding of how the industry works. The business does change, but the basics stay the same and Ingrid’s formula works! This handy guide will answer the questions an actor may have whether they are in the first stages of their career or if they are a burgeoning actor. From getting your headshots to finding an agent, from your first audition to developing your confidence, this book covers everything you need to know.
The North American launch of Act! a step by step guide to starting your acting career was on Thursday, May 13th, 2010 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Biz Books, #302 West Cordova Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada. Ingrid was in attendance to answer questions and autograph the book.
