Actress Hanieh Gholami's 26th birthday

Budget for your dreams.
Until you ‘make it’, you will potentially need to invest quite a lot of money to get there. Putting aside the cost to train if you so choose, you’ll need headshots and a showreel before you even begin trying to land auditions, membership to a resource like Backstage so casting directors can find you, quality recording devices and editing software so you can self-tape at home, and of course you’ll need to get yourself to and from auditions under your own steam.
