ASK AARON - December 2003 Answer

“I can't thank you enough for holding your Acting/Commercial Modeling Boot Camp in Atlanta. The information I received is invaluable. I hope to use it to become successful in this industry and then, just like you, help others.

I have gone back and re-read most of your book. I know that I will be going back to it again and again in the future. Once again, thank you for all you have done.”

From Lydia, MA

I've had a few agencies request a "reel". This may sound like a stupid question, but what do they mean by reel?

Dear Lydia:

That is not a stupid question. A “reel” is a videotape filled with excerpts of your acting work. It can have excerpts from your performances such as: TV shows, commercials, feature or training films or even theater performances.
