APS and Hollywood Success
President, Rock Riddle are moving forward on the

The story is loosely based on Rock's personal experiences in the late
1970's and early 1980's. You can get a feel for the film by
reading his weekly newspaper columns, entitled "Over
the Top Rope." They are available on the Hollywood
Success website. Just look for the "Wrestling
Revue" link.
Rock's
TOPICS will include:
►
How The
Industry Really Operates & Why It Has To Be So Secretive
►
The Agent's
Job: Reality vs. Theory (It's not what you think!)
►
What Every
Financially Successful Professional Actor Has In Common
►
Why Some
Actors Work and Most Don't (It's not about talent!)
►
It's Not Who
You Know -- It's Two Steps Beyond...

"The
Art & Science of Networking in the Entertainment Industry"
Professionals in the entertainment industry must network
in order to become successful. They must network in order to remain
successful This is an absolutely amazing seminar event taught by active
entertainment industry professionals. If you live in the greater Los
Angeles area, you run into people who can hire you every day. Learn how to
recognize them, what to say to them, and how to follow-up so they will want to
hire you. Learn what professional networking events are open to you --
networking events where you can meet producers (the people who hire and fire
everybody) -- and there are multiple networking events going on every day.
Learn how to research these people, how and where to meet them in a professional
businesslike atmosphere, how to design and utilize a "tickle" file to stay in
touch with them, and much more. And, if you really want
to make the most of this opportunity, here are a few suggestions:
-
Bring photos and resumes for the producers. Approximately 50
actors have been hired as a result of meeting producers at these events.
-
Bring a tape recorder if you're not great at taking notes. There
will be a great deal of insight and "inside" information shared with you
on Saturday.
-
Make a list of all the movies and TV shows you've seen in the last five
years that you thought were extraordinary.
-
See if you can find the names of the producers of those projects; then
see how many current addresses you can find of those producers.
Don't worry if you don't have total success. You'll learn how to
do this quickly and easily at the seminar.
-
Make a list of the producers and directors with whom you'd like to work.
You'll learn how to contact and approach them at this special seminar
event.
-
Dress professionally, as though you'll be meeting people who can hire
you -- because you will.
-
Share this information with your actor friends. Invite them to
attend. One thing you will be taught is the necessity of having a
support system in achieving major success quickly -- the greatest amount
of success in the least amount of time (and how to totally enjoy the
journey).
-
Please be on time. Allow a little extra time to find street
parking (one block east of the building on Cole is generally a good
place to find parking.) The doors open at 1:45 PM, and we begin
promptly at 2:00
PM. It's better to be late than not to attend at all.
However, it's much better to be at least a few minutes early.
The
producers will be impressed by your professionalism.
-
Sign in when you arrive, make a name badge for yourself, take a
seat, and get ready for an amazing career-boosting 2-hour seminar
event!
-
Be sure to register for the drawing. We often give away wonderful
and valuable prizes at the seminar events.
You'll be amazed at the amount of usable knowledge you gain at
this event.
This SPECIAL event is limited to 30 people
Please reserve NOW to guarantee your seat!
