5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book, June 14, 2000
This book was by far the best I have read on auditions. It let me know how to act and what to do and not do to get a directors attention. I reccomend this book to anyone and everyone who are looking for an acting job.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, October 3, 2001
By A Customer
I thought it was a great book. It's filled with a lot of very useful information and it's always great to get info direct from casting directors since they are the ones who we all need to audition for!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Questions and Answers for the Beginning Actor, July 19, 2008
By BYF "Backyard Flix" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
From back cover:

"This is the inside story of how theater, film, television, and commercials casting really works. In interviews wi8th top casting directors in both Los Angeles and New York, the author comes upon the answers to such key questions as:

*What suggestions can be most helpful to an actor starting out?
*What kinds of pictures and resumes are most successful?
*What is the best way to get a casting director's attention?
*What are the biggest -- and most common -- mistakes actors make in auditions?
*How necessary is it to have an agent -- in New York? in Los Angeles?

The experts who field these and scores of other questions include the casting directors of Broadway shows, and television series.

This books sucks. Mind you, there are over 350,000 aspiring actors. The majority of them have been told and rehearsed on how beautiful and talented they are. Read more
