Learn how to become a working actor.

What famous actors typically grab all the attention, it is a goal for most actors to land a job. Whether would be a single speaking of mind to a recurring role on a TV show, a seasoned actor knows it is better to be a working actor than an unemployed one. That’s why many actors may appear in dozens of movies and TV shows and consistently book study work in the film industry but very few people know their name. One maven not even be able to classify them as A-list,  B-list, C-list or even D-list celebrity. But, at the end of the day, we are bringing home a paycheck.

That’s why this video so important, the SAG-AFTRA Foundation recently held a question and answer interview session with several working actors in Hollywood.

The video features some of the biggest working actors in Hollywood including Cynthia Addai from the show Shooter, Shawn Hatosy from the Animal Kingdom, Suzy Nakamura from Dr. Ken and Abigail Spencer Timeless.
