The Great Acting Blog: “The Actor Is An Individual Creative Artist, Not An Employee”

I’ve updated The Great Acting Blog’s About page…

“The aim of this blog is to explore and foster conversation about the artistic, ethical, philosophical and technical aspects of acting, viewing the actor as an individual creative artist, not as an employee.”

I can find nowhere else where this conversation is taking place, and yet I believe these aspects are crucial for an actor’s artistic development, as well as their career progression and personal well being. Too many actors rot away while standing in line with their head shots, hoping to be picked. It’s time to stop doing that. It’s time to stop waiting in line.  It’s time for actors to re-claim the art of acting, to control their careers, to do exactly the kind of work they want to do. No more compromises.

Yes, there are more actors out there than ever before, but there are also more opportunities than ever before.
