Right now unless you are among a handful of "bankable stars," you're probably
beating your head against a big wall made of huge bricks! The bricks have
names. -- "Casting Director, and Development Executive."
Do you ever hear? -- "It is who you know in the
business!" Or, "You need new pictures!"
Is this happening to you? --
Your agent never returns phone calls? Or do you feel like you must have went to the wrong prep school and need a new acting coach?
You
can't get a job until you get a SAG card and you can't get a SAG card until
You get a job -- No means to an end!
Or, maybe you could try your luck and manage yourself?.... So you dial up NBC, Paramount, CBS, Universal, ABC, Time Warner, HBO,
Sony, MTV, ShowTime, UPN, Disney, WGA, Miramax, DGA, Fox, Polygram, VH1 and
Arista. [Telephone rings] "Hi, my name is______, and I am an upcoming actor, let's do lunch." [silent pause] "Hello??? Hello???" *CLICK* [Dial tone]

The strength of a talented individual lies in his/ her ability to continue to create. Whether it be a performance, a book, a screenplay, or recording in the studio, creating is where the energies are.
An individual who must sell his/ herself, or negotiate terms on his/ her behalf may well be less successful as opposed to having the proper management/agent. Every entertainer must have the right management behind them to take care of all business matters on thier behalf.
Unlike many agencies which may not have the time or inclination to work closely with each of their clients, APOGEE ENTERTAINMENT GROUP is known not only for responding to the needs of clients, but anticipating them as well!
