In this episode Georgie and Pierce look at independent work versus all the other types of work available in the industry. You should take a look at these opportunities as they become available to you as they are a great way of building up your first experiences with acting and gaining new skills. Georgie and Pierce let you know what you can expect from indie work on your first working forays.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘We recommend, we advise that you go down the indie route for so many reasons but most importantly you want to be working on big projects but, if you’re listening to this podcast, chances are you’re not ready for that yet.’ – Pierce
‘No one sets out going ‘I know exactly where this project is going to end up.’ Even Netflix put stuff out and it flops and they’re one of the biggest streaming services on the planet.’ – Georgie
‘You can train and train and train, and you can practice at home doing self-tapes or creating your own work, but until your on set with even a small team of people like on an indie film, you’re not going to get that full appreciation of how the whole process works.’ - Pierce
‘Because a lot of the time they are low-budget projects they’re not going to be able to compensate you in a massive way financially, but they can compensate you in so many other ways. They can give you so much value in getting credits.’ - Georgie
