A Few of Good Resources for Los Angeles Actors…
I was thinking about a friend who recently moved to LA to do some acting and was trying to decide what resources I would refer him to.
There are three off the top of my head that I wish I had discovered earlier.
The first is Suzanne Lyon’s Flash Forward workshops, which I have mentioned here several times.
The second is Jeffrey Gund’s InfoList, which is a regular email that gives you information on the latest events and workshops in town.
And the third is CCI, Center For Cultural Innovation.
They focus a lot on the business of art and I had the pleasure of going to one of their free artists info days which they hold approximately every 6 months.
The topics at that even ranged from legal assistance to doing your own PR to getting yourself organized (called “Getting Your S**t Together”), and while CCI tends to be more geared toward visual artists, I found it to be extremely valuable for other artists, such as actors, filmmakers, musicians, etc…
Great networking, too!
