If you’re early, you’re on time. If you’re on time you are late and if you are late you’re fired.

No excuses. No one wants to hear an excuse. You are always in control.

Be a communications master. Be concise. Less words is always better.

Have your own marketing material like business cards or headshots.

For aspiring actors: Do what directors/casting ask. Read the lines perfectly. Listen to their instruction carefully. Don’t improvise unless they request it. Remember: you are not there to ‘play you’  – you are there to play their character. You are the actor, meant to bring a theatrical idea to life.
