Acting in the Million Dollar Minute - The Art and Business of Performing in TV Commercials (Paperback, 3rd Revised edition)

While the fundamentals of Acting in the Million Dollar Minute haven't substantially changes, all the information is completely updated and revised for today's commercial actor. This includes updates on the current industry, training, photos, the resume, unions, actor-agency contracts, the interview, the screen test, callbacks, pay and working conditions, and a complete list of SAG and AFTRA offices. Acting in the Million Dollar Minute deals exclusively with the art and business of acting in commercials. Here the "art" is narrow: script terminology and procedure, commercial dialogue, camera staging, working the product, sample commercial scripts, and detailed analysis of how a commercial is actually shot, are all updated for this new edition. You'll also find direction on how to: decipher the meaning behind the commercial script; begin and end every commercial performance; get the auditioners' attention immediately when the camera begins; compel the auditioners, with the sheer force of your performance; how to actually watch your playback with tips on what to look for; take the camera from another actor (i.e. upstaging); give the director a performance that makes his or her job easier in the editing room. An important update to what's considered by all as an essential book on this topic!
