The Actors Success in the Making

Christopher Healy is a family man who lives in Toronto. He's accumulated a wealth of seasoned experience over 40 years in the entertainment industry, including his twenty years as a teacher. 16 of those years was Principle Acting teacher with the Toronto Academy of Acting in Canada. Christopher has been nurturing the confidence, character and creativity of thousands of kids, teenagers and adults, including teaching youth leadership to students from all over the world. Since my early days of teaching acting back in 1994, I use to teach students of all ages on how to separate yourself from the pack. This "separating you from the pack" concept is what I truly live by in my own personal career and is what leads to success. The Actors Success In The making covers four critically important elements that I believe will open the reader up to living their dreams for real. CHAPTER ONE is about the business of show-business. Remember, talent is what you start with, and you are going need to know the business of show-business if you are going to propel yourself forward and leave the pack behind. CHAPTER TWO taken from his book "What's So Special About You?." The whole chapter is from the eyes of students who were courageous enough to go through Mr. Healy's full time acting course and thrive from the experience. Their personal insights on performing, auditions and how to separate yourself from the pack will provide you an edge to change everything. CHAPTER THREE covers what's not so readily available (except in fulltime acting schools where students pay up to $30,000 plus) and that's the process of what you do when you get a screenplay or script or even a scene? The reader may have their acting talents down but most have no real idea on how to breakdown that screenplay or script. This is GOLD CHAPTER FOUR - THE WINNERS CIRCLE. You will learn how to take 7 detailed steps that will take you from where you are right now and get you out into getting auditions for real, and you don't even need an agent to start but you will need to work hard.
