Tom, Trevor, and Justin discuss the realities of acting careers. Trevor is an actor with such credits as Enlisted, Days of Our Lives, and more, and Justin dabbled in acting back in the day before he became a writer.
The trio covered such topics as:
Where to get your headshots, what kind, and how much to expect spending.
What it’s actually like to be on set, the good and the bad.
Landing an agent.
How much time and energy it takes to land your roles. A cool program at the Geffen Playhouse that is hosting a series of veterans writing and performing their own monologues (including our own Trevor, as well as James Bane and Max Thayer, who have been featured on the podcast and Military Veterans in Creative Careers podcast).
And Trevor shared a fun and embarrassing story!
