A day in the life of an actor: Jim Hogan at TEDxPSU
What would you sing if you had 4 bars to showcase your skills? Being an actor isn't as glamorous as you think. Jim shows a glimpse of the toils of being an actor in NYC in this funny and revealing talk about the reality of the profession and the competitive auditions that occur on a daily basis to find work. Follow Jim @jimhogan220. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
