The caveat to what you said at 3:01 is that if the young performer can get a *scholarship* through the performing arts so that they will graduate with no debt... DO THAT. Minor in Business though, I agree it needs to be in there because that will be how you do what you need to do.
Love that.
This look is a vibe, Wendy!

Wendy, I wish you were around when I started my acting career. I had to figure all that stuff out on my own, and it took years.
I hear you ❤
Thank you for this video! Its very insightful 🙏🏽
I am so glad to hear it!
You ROCK Wendy!
you are a LEGENDDDDDD
YEEESSSS, Ms. Wendy. This is what I needed to hear today. I will be sharing it.
Wonderful!
Also thank you for all the guidance!
As a teen trying to find out how to start coming into acting you help so much ♡
I am so happy to hear that! Just start by taking lots of acting classes, doing plays and watching actors work in all of the academy award winning films from the last 10 years. Try to see what they are doing that makes them such good actors. Sometimes watch with the sound off! Watch their body language, their gestures, what their eyes are saying....
@wendyalane1 you're so cool 😭 thank you for the advice ♡ I hope I can work with you one day
This is great information
Hi Wendy! Are you an agent for writers as well? Can you do a video on how to navigate a talent for writing and acting?
Thank you Wendy!! I always look forward to all the advice you give in these videos.
I'm so glad!
So much wisdom and experience shared in this video. Thank you!
Roman you are welcome.
great video...
Group classes is good to learn from other actor feed back. More power info. 😊
Thank you so much for all of the videos, the motivation, the informations shared. I believe in it!
You are VERY welcome
These Rock!
ha ha ! YOU rock!
Hey Wendy, it's been a while since I've seen one of your videos, and it's funny because I'm at a crossroads in my career, and one of your videos just popped up! I've been grinding away at acting for 15 years now. Not full-time because I had a mortgage and two kids. I have an agent, and I've gotten a few co-star roles, I've even produced my own pilot, which is now on Amazon Prime. I audition all the time, and I take classes, but my career is still not moving the way I like. I want to take things to the next level. I'm in an on-camera class now, and I'm auditing a Chubbuck class next week. ( And I'm getting new headshots). I've been told by the casting directors here in Atlanta that I'm good (I guess that's why I keep getting asked to tape), but I'm still not booking. I think I need more, but I don't know what that is. Any advice? BTW, I am considering only working part-time if necessary.
Im just starting my journey and am looking for classes. I hope to be one of your clients before you reach 10,000!
Drama is hard for me. I hate when there is a chuckle when I do drama. ;( but I came to term I am quirky. It’s my advantage 😊
Wendy, thanks for the wisdom and information. And let me just say wow you've lost a lot of weight! You look amazing
Thank you so much!
I love your passion for actors Wendy. Your Video Are Amazing. True Advice Is Key 🗝️. If you have advice on good companies that you suggest that shoot the best clips for your reel.
I suggest actors shoot self tapes FIRST themselves, they get with friends and shoot scenes. THEN after that companies like Jig Reels.
Hi Wendy! Thank you for your videos

Hello and respect. Thank you for guiding me. I have been acting in the field of theater and cinema for many years and I even visited a course in Italy and worked in theater with the Potlach theater group and got a degree. I also took a directing course. But because of the conditions of my country, I can't and I don't like to work. I wish to come to America and study acting again. Can you introduce me to a non-academic free acting class or a theater company so that I can come to America through this method to continue my studies. Do you have a better suggestion, of course, except to say to stay and work in your country because it is not possible at all, there is no success here.
❤❤❤
If I’m honest, I can be depressing, but I also find a way to make anything a joke. My wife says “how do you come up with this stuff”. But it just comes naturally to me. I aspire to be like Jim Carey. He’s by far my favorite actor.
Maybe you should be a comedian
Love ya 🫶🏻
Right back atcha!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Wendy, I have done the theater thing, MFA in Acting etc. But have not done anything since before most of your members I suspect were born. I will be moving to LA next year. Should I wait to join your course until I am there or should I preload?
Well, that’s totally up to you! I love being inside the course and working with all the actors every weekend participating or listening to all the classes by the agents and managers in Casting Directors and helping Actors with all the materials. Working on mine said I don’t think you could go wrong by joining it and getting to work in the course.
Hey Wendy, I have a question, if all you have are college shows on video, is that okay to upload on Actor's Access?
like I said, in the video, create self tapes. We don’t want to see your theater footage. And if these are films you’ve done in college, pull out the best sense you have and see what that gets you.

Actors got to have 99% work ethic
I have been acting for 10 years now i am still. Getting background acting gigs , non union indie films and working a part time job and being a full time actor what should i do
Background gigs have nothing to do with acting. I think everyone should do background work a little to sit back and observe and get comfortable being on set. I just wouldn't do it very long.
You’re building Working Actors nice….
Hello to you dear Wendy!
I am a medical student in the 3rd year (out of 6) currently studying in the Czech Republic (originally from Israel)
Acting had always been a dream of mine and when I arrived to Prague I started taking acting classes, took my headshots, and booked some student films, commercials, and am on theater plays. After I am done with my degree as a med student, I would pursue acting as a carreer.
Been following your clips for quite a while now and I would definitelly join HWC. Only have one concern:
I do not live in the USA nor do I have an american citizenship. You mentioned in the video about the value of networking once you join HWC- Would this value of network remain in case I move to the US in roughly 3 years from now since I am bound to my med school for now?
Should I join HWC now or would it be smarter to join once I plan moving to the US?
Thank you so much- The value that you provide is simply on a different level
Oh and also- Could I work in the US without having a citizenship? Do you have any knowledge about this?
hey there listen building an acting career wherever you live, requires being able to build relationships with people in your industry, it requires creating amazing pieces of acting that you can present to people to show them what you’re capable of, it requires getting great training, it requires knowing how to look for acting jobs, it requires, knowing how to reach out to Agency and managers, and all of that needs to be done no matter what city and state that you’re in. It requires having the right mindset, and being able to manifest the success that you are looking for. The course helps Actors all over the world I can help you too.
@@wendyalane1
Thanks for the reply!
Also, in the course do you reccommend specific contacts to join their classes?
@@avneruvaidov9027 The course covers EVERYTHING and you can ask any questions you have in the weekly group coaching calls on zoom
Wendy, which school in LA would you recommend to learn on-camera technique?
@@NoirExistence Look up John Swanbeck and his Cinematic acting classes AND LA Acting Studios with David Rountree he teaches class right on the sets in his studio. It's awesome. Check out both of their classes.
@@wendyalane1 makes me happy you said that. I had a good time at LA acting studios with Rountree :). Will look up Swanbeck. thank you!
I need a comedie acting Teacher.

Actors make actors successful. Agents, bookers managers and coaches need to lose the ego. Y’all help.
I know right. Its the same with boxing promoters and music industry, the people no one cares about thinking theyre the most important thing to someone with talents success.
Facts.@@shoneast6880
How many TV Co Stars, Guest Stars and Series Regular roles have you booked? Drop your Actors Access and IMDB link here 😉
@@wendyalane1 many, and they don’t all appear on IMDb. I retired and hop back in for a job here and there. I do it my way. I’ve had much success and I’d never let anyone tell me they made me successful. Lose the ego sis.
@@NawD wrong they help every step of the way, you can't get anything without them. All the small roles you can get on your own yes, but, they make sure you have the right training, make sure your getting booked, (if your putting in the work) their the ones who make a name for you because you can't, yes you may get lucky and make a career on your own, but the exception doesn't make the rule. Don't take agents and/or managers lightly, they've done this for so many years, their experts in their own right, it's their job.

Hi there! I recently stumbled upon your channel and I’m excited to become a regular viewer.
I’ve got a question for you. What’s your perspective on the current landscape for white male actors trying to break into Hollywood? It might sound a bit unusual, but I’ve noticed a lack of emerging white male talent in the movies and TV shows I’ve been watching, and they seem to be less in demand compared to more established names. Do you think it’s still a viable path for someone like me to pursue acting in Hollywood, or would it be more strategic to focus on building a personal brand through social media or CZcams first, and then transition into acting?
Sorry for the lengthy question, I know you’re busy, but I’d really value your insight on this. Also, I must say, your on-camera presence is fantastic! Looking forward to more of your industry tips. Thanks and take care!
I love the question! I don't think you can EVER take into account what anyone else is doing. If YOU become an amazing actor there will ALWAYS be work for YOU. And thank you for your kind words to me, they mean a LOT.
Hi Wendy, I want to be managed by you but I need to start training. Where do you recommend I start in ATL, GA? Love you 🫶🏼
I’m in your email list, is that an email I can privately message you from?
