Ask any artist be it an actor, singer, musician, painter, writer, composer, director, model, photographer, comedian, or any art performer how he got a break and each one will have there own unique story, how he fought against odds to get a break in the biz world of entertainment, film and arts. It’s because this biz world is dominated by only selected few, though it is now opening its doors to new upcoming artists too.
Now also there is not defined procedure or approach to get into the biz world and get noticed. Artists have to go through tedious and time taking process of approaching Agents to whom they submit there portfolio and hope to get an audition call.
You talk to anyone and everyone, they will give you there own advice of ‘how to become an artist’ be it an actor, singer, musician, painter, writer, composer, director, model, photographer, comedian, or any art performer. The truth is that industry expects certain quality and that quality is only known by the professionals within those industries.
Any agent cannot send your portfolio to Subash Ghai, Industry expects a level of professionalism from agents too and therefore agents expects professional pictures of models, quality portfolio of musicians etc.
