What makes a movie great? Perhaps even more crucial, who decides what makes it great - before it gets made into a movie? The entertainment industry's top executive decision-makers are always looking for a great story. But they don't have time to read every screenplay or book themselves. Instead, they often rely on story analysts, or readers, who become the first to read and pass judgment on submissions. Story analysts' reports ("coverages") help form a basis for executive decisions. 
As we are thrust into an age of digital communication technologies, opportunities are becoming endless for people to perform in front of the cameras either on television or the Internet. Executives representing their companies or students aspiring to work in the broadcast field are often intimidated by the thought of going on camera. One of the reasons for these fears is that there are so few resources to aid in educating people about broadcast performing expectations.
Everything an aspiring actor needs to know about the business of finding employment. "I thought Tom Logan had written the perfect exploration of acting and eating when he wrote this book. But the new updated and expanded version makes it even more vital to the newcome's library. It remains a pragmatic and knowledgeable examination of the basic problem actors face: how to act and eat at the same time. He explores the ramifications of this basic dilemma with wit and knowledge." -Charlton Heston "Tom Logan's book, if you really listen to him, can help you through years of productivity. He writes with a sense of humor and knowledge of the fundamentals that are so important - especially to the beginner." -Lucille Ball "FIVE STARS! This book has everything - knowledge, humor, and incredible accuracy. Don't go to another audition before you read it." -Richard Bare, Oscar-nominated director

Emphasis is on believable characterization, no cartoon types.
