RESEARCH

Stay away from people who tell you that there are enough work opportunities for budding actors and actresses. Do your research. To gain recognition, you need to go out and explore, make connections, network with people, and create a unique identity for yourself. It is the only way you can get some work. Always be on the look for even the tiniest opportunities and exploit them. Do not be underconfident or have higher expectations at the beginning.
