So, you probably know about Spotlight and Casting Call Pro, you're a fully fledged equity member and you do loads of research on IMDB... But what about the rest of the internet?! This workshop moves beyond the standard marketing methods for actors and looks at untapped resources you could be using everyday for Free! We'll be looking at social media for actors: demystifying twitter, maximising facebook and managing a YouTube channel, as well as looking at your online presence and how to manage how people see you and find you online.

You thought the first impression was the decision casting directors make when you walk in the casting room? Well, you were wrong... The first impression is the one casting directors, producers, directors and agents make when they look you up online! Don't sell yourself short: make sure its the best first impression possible!
