The entertainment industry has changed in 2020. You must wake up with a chisel and a cup of coffee each morning at dawn, prepared to take your place.

Thinking Globally
Hollywood today earns more than half of its profits from the markets abroad. If you’re involved in the industry, come up with a project in Tokyo, Venice, or even London. This can include overseas locations and key parts for non-US performers.
Connect With People

Some organizations are regularly organizing “pitch festivals” to make sure, on a fee, you meet up with agents, producers, and studio managers. Make sure that the event includes legitimate businesses with actual buyers and representatives, and not interns and staff to speak with you. Since Hollywood events are all about communicating, they can be a perfect way to put the material before people who can make a real difference. If nothing else, it’s a wonderful place to get familiar with people and extend your network of Hollywood VIPs like Roger Wolfson and other authors and filmmakers. Portray confidence in yourself.
Have you ever followed the lead of a total stranger only because they seemed certain? You must assume that the random guy at the corner says the marina is like this, but there is no proof to prove either way. Actors should take on an appealing corporate attitude of trust and take up the role in the audition room.
Offer Services More Frequently

Read and provide input on someone’s script. Be a PA on the short film of a friend. Make a reference to your acting class friend if you can. By supporting your colleagues in this way, you build up your support ranks and generate a wealth of good karma which you will gain later.
Being Persistent and Taking Action
The bulk of the actors are unfolding. Actors know that they need to send follow-up emails to experts in the industry who can help them advance in this long-term craft which is regarded as a career creation. But they do not. Call it rejection fear, call it laziness, whatever. I guarantee you can see improvements over time if you start pursuing every link you have made consistently.
Developing Individual Projects
This is perhaps the most relevant piece of advice and that to which actors most protest. With the frequent answer of, “But I am here to act. I can’t compose.” All right, so recruit someone who will. Align yourself with talented filmmakers who are specialized in the production of content that will make you grow more easily than any other co-star role would.
Working on a Budget
Often, it is easier to do something for less than Hollywood. Since studios are happy to spend a great deal on projects by first time filmmakers, you can see how significant returns can be produced from small investments. This also means writing small, but narrow horror films, thrillers, and other genre scripts for authors. You can make mind-blowing short films on practically lunch money for directors, digital cameras, and modern CGI.
Coming Up With the Best Log Line
Somebody must read the script before falling in love with your script. The best way to do this is to first provide a convincing log line—a one or two-line overview of the concept of your project. In that sense, “premise,” when the story is in full motion, can be described as where we stand at the end of act one. In 99% of cases, a solid business log line will contain three major features: A troubled hero, with severe and fatal repercussions he or she cannot just go away from; a “wow factor,” which is so rare, amazing, or interesting that it needs our attention; an irony factor, which is a problem that goes against what you normally would expect your hero to face. For example, if a drug dealer has blatant revenge, that’s just par for the race. If the priest is for blind vengeance, on the other hand, it could be quite interesting.
Be Patient
Avoid pushing immediate outcomes. You can start to psych yourself up and become a victim of many elements that are prey to actors such as depression, low self-esteem, self-doubt, and then deciding to go back to “safe” professions. If you start to focus on the fact that you are not moving quickly enough, you will not survive in Hollywood.
