Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Working Actor Show! Georgie and Pierce are here to entertain you and guide both established and unestablished actors to gain access to the acting industry while negotiating some of the business and mindset hurdles along the way. As your hosts they will introduce you to in depth aspects of the acting industry with their own expertise and by sharing the experiences of special guests throughout the series. 

They are starting out with the question everyone wants to know the answer to; why most actors don’t make it and how you can. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There are two mindsets that differentiate between the successful and unsuccessful actor ; ‘scarcity’ and ‘abundance’. 
• Scarcity mindset means you think that there aren’t enough roles or opportunities and that you have to succeed in every audition because you don’t know when the next one may come along. 
• There are so many more opportunities out there with so many more modern platforms. Online content and streaming services have all added to the work available.
• The abundance mindset always seeks to see the positive ; ‘There is always going to be something around the corner.’ Or ‘what’s for you won’t go by you.’ Realise that you already have the tools you need within you. You can make your own connections with online opportunities and by personal networking. 
• Fear of success in the industry seems unlikely, but sudden success and demand can be overwhelming and the underlying fear of failure can unsteady your positive mindset. Overnight success is often an illusion, however, and most successful actors have actually, if you investigate, a gradual rise. 

BEST MOMENTS

‘There are so many opportunities out there that the scarcity mindset is completely damaging and completely useless. It renders us into a really negative and scared mindset. We’re terrified that we’re not going to find our next role.’ – Georgie

‘If you go into it thinking it's going to be competitive and cutthroat, guess what, it’s going to be competitive and cutthroat for you. What you think about comes about.’ – Pierce

‘It’s not unrealistic to think that in a relatively short amount of time if you truly set your mind to it you can start to see results very, very quickly.’ – Pierce 

‘It’s so ridiculously crucial that you trust in what you’re doing and you trust in your ability. There are going to be so many people in this industry who are going to be more than happy to tear you down.’ – Georgie

‘Social media, if you don’t learn to manage it properly, chances are people are going to comment on your things, or interact with you, or give you hate because they’re jealous of you.’ - Pierce
