Entrepreneur Ideas in Action
Podcast
From actor to entrepreneur and Co-Founder of WeAudition, Darren Darnborough
Actors, let’s get your entrepreneur ideas in action! Time is up!
I could not be more honored to have my podcast sponsor and WeAudition’s co founder, Darren Darnborough, join me on this episode.
If you’re anything like me, it’s nearly impossible to watch a movie or TV show without going onto IMDB to look up the actor. Often times, I find that the actors are from other counties, which had me thinking, “what’s going on over there with your training. What are you learning that we’re not here in the US”.
Well, now I know!
We also talked about the process of coming over to the US as an actor, WHEN it’s time to relocate to a bigger market, and talking to producers/directors/casting directors as your peers.
Being an Entrepreneur as an Actor
We also cover entrepreneurship and how to manage many hats. It’s crucial now days for actors to be entrepreneurs and take the reigns of their own careers.
Darren is co-founder of one of the best sites for actors to find a reader for a self tape or rehearsals, WeAudition.
