The LOWEST priced agent networking event in the industry!
Date/Time: Wednesday, February 1st 2012 from 7PM-930PM
Cost: $160
Location: Chelsea Studios, 151 West 26th Street, 6th Floor, NYC.
It takes only a few minutes to make a first impression and to determine if you "hit if off" with someone. If you were going on a first date date with someone, The Agent Night would be the proverbial initial "drink" that you have with that person versus a 3 hour dinner to see if there's a connection. If there is indeed a connection, THEN you proceed to a longer meeting and go more in depth. This Agent Night provides a meeting ground for actors and agents without any of the awkwardness of a first meeting but with all of the benefits. Are connections made and do people get called in by the agents? They sure do!
The Agents:
Danielle Ippolito from Talentworks
Lori Swift from KSR
Alex Butler from Henderson Hogan
Scott Swiontek from Gersh
Dianne Riley from Harden Curtis
Liz Rosier from Hartig Hilepo
Steve Maihack from Stewart Talent

- No monologues
The Format
Never before has it been so easy, fun, and affordable for actors to network with and meet NYC's top legit agents and managers. At an Agent Night, actors get to meet 10 top legit agents all in one night and receive written feedback from each and every one of them. Upon registration, actors gain access to our extensive library of current film/tv scenes to select a scene to prepare. (or actors are able to use a scene of their choice instead provided that it's from a film/tv project and not a play or a monologue). The evening begins with an informative talk with our staff about how the evening runs. This talk is chock full of pointers, advice and addresses any questions that our actors have. During the event, actors can also ask our staff for pointers on their headshots, resumes, and their chosen scene. The agents are divided into 2 rooms of 5 agents per room plus one of our excellent readers in both rooms. One at a time, actors go into both rooms where they get to perform their scenes and interact with the agents. Actors receive written feedback from each industry member within 10 minutes of their time in the rooms. This is truly a great networking opportunity and a chance for actors to find out where they are at and how they are being received by the industry. We create a safe, intimate, and beneficial environment for actors and agents alike and most importantly...it produces RESULTS!
