“I learned how to let other performers have their moment. A lot of people can't do that. They just chew the scenery and steamroll over their scene partners. It doesn't make you look better in the long run to do that. You have to have balance in your scene. If it's somebody else's moment, let them have it. Learn how to be generous. Plus, it makes the audience hate you.” PeopleIfsLooksLongMomentsRunningHateAudienceBalanceScenePartnersGenerousPlusPerformersLong RunsHate YouScenery Author:Wendi McLendon-Covey
“As a performer, you can't just sit around waiting for the phone to ring. You have to write and develop projects for yourself, because casting people aren't always going to see you the way you want to be seen. Write a one-person show, shoot a short film, do plays, whatever - activity breeds activity. No one's interested in a stay-at-home actress.” PeopleWayWantWritingPersonsPlayShowsHomeFilmWaitingActivityProjectsPhonesActressesRingsPerformersCastingStay At HomeShort Films Author:Wendi McLendon-Covey
