Jun. 30th, 2005 03:27 pmSo, I met with an agent again, the one that might actually get me work. Problem is, I need headshots, 8x10s, and the kind they want me to have aren't cheap: 4-800 dollars Canadian. Less than 400 he says will be half-assed, over 800 is too much and I'm being ripped off.
Father-in-law has said that any agency that asks for money up-front is going to rip me off, but they haven't done that; in fact, they said I can get them somewhere else if I want to. The people they use charge a bit under 600 Canadian, including make-up and all that fun stuff. I'm not even sure WHY they'd need headshots for voiceover work, but that's the biz, I guess. Plus I get to keep them if I leave the agency, anyway. I think I expressed interest in acting, though voice work is where I wanted to focus. Might be part of it.
So, yeah, if I can manage to get the money, I might be in luck here...
...if I can manage to get the money.
