"I would never say Don't try it to people, but in my seminars Ill play demo CDs of actors with whom I work; they don't get as much work as I do but are every bit as talented. They have agents, they're members of the Screen Actors Guild and they cant get a job. The point I'm trying to make to these folks is, you need to know that there are people that they've never heard of who are really good and are going to get the call before you do. They've already got representation and have been here for five or 10 years. People aren't aware of how much competition there is; there are things I never even get a shot at and I've won an Emmy. I've done a couple 1,000 half-hours of work on a couple of 100 series and I still have to audition and still don't get everything I read for. That's the two big things: Knowing there's a lot of competition and realizing that its not all just a matter of doing funny voices. Its also acting, the ability to sing and improvise in your characters."
