Zoom: "WHAT'S HAPPENING IN ATLANTA" - Free Online Seminar
Tuesday, December 10, 2024, 12pm ET / 9am PT
Atlanta has been locally named "The Hollywood of The South." Should YOU be there to build your dream career?
Selecting the "home city" for your acting career is an important business strategy. You need to weigh in on many factors-- your type, what is regularly filming in that location, cost of living expenses, and overall level of opportunity. In order to make the best decision for your career, you need information on each of your options.
Traditionally actors decided between NY and LA-- but with recent industry changes-- the savvy actor is also now considering ATLANTA.
Join us for a FREE virtual SEMINAR on this rapidly growing Entertainment Community to help you decide if Atlanta is a great match for your current career goals.
You'll learn about:
- The Major Atlanta Agencies (including who has offices in both NY and Atlanta)
- Major Casting Offices in Atlanta
- Top Projects now filming in the Atlanta area
- How to be considered a Local Hire
- Feasibility of working in BOTH NY and ATLANTA markets
- Cost of Living in the City *Resources for Performers in Atlanta
You'll also learn about our upcoming ATLANTA CONNECTION where you can showcase to 15 industry guests in a very busy jam packed weekend immersing you in the robust Atlanta market. The next Atlanta Connection will take place over February 8/9. Space is limited.
Don't miss this fun informative virtual seminar!
