Great book & tool!!

I first found out about Philip Nemy through allexperts.com, where I contacted him in regards to getting into films, etc. for my daughter as she has being doing commercials and a few extra jobs on films but only locally in San Francisco. I wanted to find out more about getting into more of a principal role, etc. Philip Nemy was wonderful, answered all my questions, etc., and recommended his book to get more information. This book is a very valuable tool for anyone wanting to get into the motion picture industry whether it be as an actor, writer, director, etc.! This book covers every aspect of the industry, provides you with basically a step-to-step guide on what you need to do. No one could ask for a better book!If you are serious about a career in the motion picture industry, no matter what aspect of the industry, I would highly recommend you purchase this book as this man knows his stuff! He use to work for Disney pictures and has now started his own company. He provides great insight into this industry!
