This session reveals all about the working life of an actor. Our actors will elaborate on what it's like working with a cast and crew, sometimes seven days a week, for 3-6 months, to not seeing them again. Attendees will hear about the downtime between jobs and the unknown when the next one will be. The actor life means continued auditions with little feedback if you don't land the role. Attendees will learn how to insulate themselves from setbacks, no matter the industry, and how to ensure they don't negatively affect their mental health.
