ask me anything... about the industry

[rm]

Okay, since in the middle of my Torchwood related rant I actually provided people with some useful information that people didn't actually know, and since there are lots of people reading this other than me who are also in the various unions connected to film and TV (and so will know answers I don't) -- ask your industry questions here, and I'll see what I can do.

One of the reasons I never went "into the business" (aside from pure fear of not being good enough, and that's my own stupid emotional issue) is that lovely Catch-22 situation with the SAG card and actually managing to acquire it.

How DO you go about acquiring said semi-mythical object? (Especially if you happen to be located in a city other than NYC or LA)

What are the best ways for a young actress to build her network towards a sustainable career in the theatre? Is it really showing up at all the cattle calls? Going to readings? Should I start a youtube channel? How might I best direct my efforts towards developing artistic collaborations?
