HOW MANY HOURS OF INFORMATION ARE INCLUDED ON THE FOUR DVDs ?
The Actor's Journey® for Kids DVD Program is a complete "professional" course. There are five hours of critical information presented on five DVDs. These DVDs are not about craft. They are not about acting. These DVDs are strictly devoted to presenting, learning and understanding the unique and mandatory "non-performance" business skills necessary to launch a career and succeed in the the industry. Each DVD is approximately 75 minutes long.


WHAT MAKES THE ACTOR'S JOURNEY® PROJECT AND “THE ACTOR’S JOURNEY® for KIDS” DVD SET SO REVOLUTIONARY ?
The information is taught by 100 highly regarded and successful entertainment industry veterans. Each of these pros has over twenty-five years of hard-earned experience behind them.


HOW ARE “THE ACTOR’S JOURNEY® for KIDS” DVDs DIFFERENT FROM OTHER DVDs, VIDEOS, & BOOKS OFFERED ON OTHER WEBSITES ?
In a word: professionalism.   We invite you to check-out as many websites offering information and advice as you possibly can – then ask yourself one question – Who are these people?  How long have they been working in the industry?  What is their background in the industry.  What is their work history?  Is that work history verifiable on IMDb.com?   
 
The Actor’s Journey® Project is about presenting information only from distinguished industry professionals.  These are pros who have been there - done that...and succeeded!  Over 40 of these pros have been nominated for - or won - Academy®, Emmy® and Golden Globe® and other prestigious industry awards!
 
 
 IS THERE A LIST OF THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY VETERANS AND PROFESSIONALS APPEARING IN THE DVDs ?
Yes. Please go to the web page titled: INDUSTRY VETERANS – or just click the Link.


WILL WATCHING THESE DVD’s SAVE ME TIME ?
Yes. It could take a parent 5 to 10 years to learn all the information presented on these DVDs. With the information as presented in “The Actor's Journey for Kids” DVD Set, parents can streamline this process to five hours.


WILL THESE DVDs SAVE ME MONEY ?
Yes. Launching an acting career - whether child, teen or adult is not without costs. However, the true professional knows WHAT to spend money on and WHEN to spend it. Additionally, there are individuals and companies out there that are dedicated to exploiting your lack of knowledge about the business. These individuals and companies range from what we classify as gray areas (legitimate – though not inexpensive opportunities) to scams to outright criminal activity. The Actor’s Journey for Kids DVDs dedicates an entire segment to these unethical activities. Parents will be fully informed as to WHO to give their hard earned dollars to. We want every dollar spent – spent on useful tools, industry compliant photos, meaningful training and career advancing activities. Don’t become a victim!


MY CHILD OR TEEN JUST WANTS TO ACT AND PERFORM - WHY IS IT EVEN NECESSARY TO LEARN THE BUSINESS SIDE OF THE INDUSTRY ?
This comes as a surprise to all actors – but the real work of any actor (of any age) is finding opportunities to work. When an actor is up on stage or in front of a camera – that is his or her reward for all the hard work they did to get that job! Trust us on this one: without a complete understanding of the business side of the industry, you won’t know what to do first – let alone find work!


DO WE NEED TO MOVE TO HOLLYWOOD TO LAUNCH MY CHILD or TEEN’S CAREER - AND TO SEEK WORK ?
No. That is one of they myths that is perpetuated about the entertainment industry. You can start the process right in your own back yard - so to speak. There is much less competition. After you have launched your career and have a fairly sophisticated demo reel of your work to show – then you may want to test the waters in Los Angeles and Hollywood.


THE ECONOMY SEEMS TO BE IN SHAMBLES - IS NOW A GOOD TIME TO ATTEMPT TO LAUNCH A CAREER AS A CHILD or TEEN ACTOR IN THE MOVIE AND TELEVISION INDUSTRIES ?
Surprisingly, the Entertainment Industry not only thrives during hard times - it actually - historically speaking - flourishes.   During the economically depressed years following the September 11, 2001 attack - the entertainment industry - grew by an astounding 50%..


WILL THERE BE A VERSION OF THE ACTOR’S JOURNEY® FOR ADULTS (18 years and older) ?
Yes. Please visit www.TheActorsJourney.com – or just click the Link.


IS THERE AN E-MAIL ADDRESS FOR THE ACTOR’S JOURNEY® PROJECT ?
Yes. Our Contact E-MAIL ADDRESS is:  Info@TheActorsJourney.com
