Happy Almost Fall, UTD!

Fall is in the air, and with it comes a wave of new beginnings. Productions are ramping up, opportunities are multiplying, and the stage is set for actors who are ready to step forward. This is the season to trust your craft, embrace your mission, and shine in the work you’ve been preparing for.

We recently published a new blog, “Define Your Artistic Mission,” along with a companion Artistic Mission Worksheet. These resources are close to my heart. Taking the time to define your mission isn’t just about writing a statement—it’s about aligning with the deeper “why” behind your craft. I encourage you to carve out a quiet moment, download the worksheet, and let it guide you into Fall with renewed focus.

To help you plan strategically for the months ahead, don’t miss our new industry blog, “Film & TV Production Growth in 2025.” This report breaks down where production is expanding, what markets are heating up, and why Fall is shaping up to be one of the busiest seasons yet. It’s an essential read for any actor preparing to navigate the opportunities ahead with focus and intention.
