    • Performing Arts

If you’re wondering how the hell to get an acting agent right now, this episode with Claire J. Loy will be invaluable to you. A step-by-step guide to ensure you get an agent that is right for you, not just the first agent you manage to sign with.
To be honest, even if you’re not looking for an agent, I think you’ll really enjoy hearing Claire’s super-purposeful process. It’s really impressive and shows just how much care and attention Claire puts into the business side of her career as well as her craft.
We also chat more generally about the importance of knowing what you want as an actor so that you can create an environment for yourself that supports your goals. 
Any time I have a self tape of importance to do, I give Claire a shout for help, she has seriously mastered the art, so I also asked her about self taping, what equipment is critical, and when you should invest in a high end camera. 
Have a listen, and let me know what you think. And if you want to connect with Claire you can check out her MySite.Actor website at www.clairejloy.com, or connect with her on Facebook or Instagram.
