Some people pay for every advantage they think might be available to them. The investment can be deeply rewarding, and these expenses are a tax write off for the income earner, but know what your are making and spending before you get involved. You have to do these days, to build resume, reel, and gain your child experience. Gas, wardrobe for auditions, head shots, and maintaining website subscriptions, a few random things here and there like acting classes or coaches, coupled with paying your team 10-20% commission may make that 100 dollar day sound less attractive. If that still sounds good, consider the money you will spend to make it. You put a lot of effort into non-union work that may only pay $100 a day. There are exceptions, but I’m talking about the norm. It’s more money than they would have not working, but it’s not paying for college overnight.

Unless they hit more than a few National commercials or a series regular job, it’s not an instant jackpot. Now I ask you, how much wine would it take for you to shake this one off?ħ. We saw kids post on Instagram they booked the roles, and that’s how we knew it was over. Guess what? We NEVER heard back from them again. We relax over the weekend, to then be called Monday to double check the conflict again, as they are still considering him for 3 roles. We press on, I do not sleep, and we take him to school and then dress rehearsal. We wait that night until 11pm, and never receive an email or text or call or smoke signal. I receive a 7pm call asking if we could be somewhere at 8am, and do we have any conflicts until August? Both agent and I are under the impression he might be booking this role, and I’m squeamish because I don’t want him to miss his school dress rehearsal. Then it’s the night before the school musical dress rehearsal, where my son was cast as the lead. We had not heard anything and assumed we did not book it. My son auditions often, and was being considered for a huge HBO show, with an Academy Award winning actress.

How are you at coping with massive amounts of it? I will give you an example.
