In this 3-hour workshop, students will learn all about: INDUSTRY HIERARCHY The basic structure of the casting industry and production industry for television, films, theatre, commercials, and new media is examined and discussed. REPRESENTATION There are five basic fields of talent representation that all successful actors utilize during their careers. Agents are only one of these fields. We will discuss what all five categories are, what those representatives are legally allowed to do, what they really do, what they charge, who needs them, how to find them, and when to change them.
