A Complete Commercial Acting Workshop!

When Natalee first moved to LA at 20 years old to pursue acting she knew she had to figure out how to financially support herself. And let's be real...being a hostess at a steak house wasn't cutting it. She was lucky enough to find commercial acting pretty early on in her career. Her first big booking was Farmer's Insurance when she was 21 years old and she hasn't stopped auditioning since. 

In this Complete Commercial Acting Workshop Natalee shares everything you need to know from the Ground Up on how to get started into commercial acting. How to get an agent and a manager. What kind of headshots you need, do you need a reel? what should you resume look like? Pitch email examples. The list goes on. Looking for ways to make extra money as an actor? This could be a great avenue for you. You're not going to want to miss this episode on commercial acting. 

Just because she has been on hundreds of commercial auditions it doesn't mean she's had the luxury to get direct bookings. She still auditions to this day. The only thing that has changed over the years is confidence. The more you practice the better you get and as we know this industry is a numbers game! Keep at it!
