-How to run your business as an actor
-Which agents YOU should target--- and how to get interviews with them
-How to word all your correspondence precisely and professionally with the information that really gets their attention. (Forget the clever gimmicks). In the session, Brian will dictate to you- ver batim- your cover letters
-Exactly how YOU should answer the questions an agent will ask in an interview. Brian will give you a personalized and perfect answer to the dreaded "How do you see yourself?" question-- a critical area in the agent interview that even the most gifted actors fear-- and often mishandle. (See the next item listed!)
-How to know -and articulate- your "type" and "essence" from the industry's point of view

-How to find out who will be casting what-- and find out if there's a role for you (up to a year in advance!)
-The best ways to get an audition without an agent
-How to make direct contact with the playwright and the director (and bypass the casting director altogether!). Learn how actors who have worked with Brian--even those with minimal experience and no representation-- are getting auditions directly from playwrights, directors, and composers including Craig Lucas, Edward Albee, Caryl Churchill, Tony Kushner, Horton Foote, A.R. Gurney, Maria Irene Fornes, Stephen Sondheim and others
-How to revise your resume for maximum effect
-How to audition in an agent or casting director's office
-The best way to get work on soaps (and why you should do it!)
-How to get auditions at the theaters agents really go to by targeting the right person --(it's neither the casting director nor the artistic director). Maximize your exposure to those who cast for film and television!
