Finding Auditions

 Finding Auditions for Acting Jobs in your area is hard to find when you don't have the resource to find the jobs that are out there. That's why its nice to have a Talent Agent, I have a talent agent that can find me part-time work to avoid conflicting with my everyday Job as a Truck Driver. If I ever decide to find a Full time Acting Job that requires me to work weekly. I usually find a Acting job that is within my region like Atlanta, GA or New York, NY. Wilmington, NC has some filming done there, but most cases are its "Background Acting" and usually you can get work without having to Audition.

 SAG jobs are the jobs that I would look for. All Sag jobs are paid. Non union jobs can pay you whatever they want to pay you or require that you volunteer and if the film makes any money they can pay you later or not pay you at all. So if your auditioning for what ever Acting job it may be like a lead, supporting or day player. read the fine print. Never quit your day job and don't take to many days off to audition. You're everyday job is what pays the bills. Join a Acting group on Facebook or do some research on the internet or read a book about it.

 Even the most famous actors had a everyday job at one point in there life.
My everyday job is Truck Driving, do I look like a truck driver? If your answer was No. Your right because Truck Driving was never my favorite Dream job, but it pays the bills so I can attempt to pursue acting. I look more like the Actor/Model type and that's my goal to live my dream! I used to get so tired of hearing people talk about how young I look. But now I know that's just god telling me that I need to Pursue my Favorite Dream Job, cause that's what he as planned for my life! I just got to put in the Hard Work, Dream Big and Pray that all goes well and He will keep me positive and on the right path. I was from traveling through the Airport where the "Unaccompanied Minors" film was shot and required me to sign a release agreement in the event that if I was ever used in a scene as a Background Actor or Day Player I would not sue them for not getting paid. I was considered a uncredited volunteer worker. IMDB doesn't allow uncredited filmography but I have proof that I was used in that film. So check out my IMDB and follow me on Twitter and Instagram and like my Facebook page.

Actor Jeffrey Barkey will be known across the globe
as an inspiration to the people who dream of being actors that
refuse to give up!

"My life is not a Pipe Dream it is a Reality"
