Australian actors learn to follow in the footsteps of Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman and Naomi Watts. TVI Actors Studio, America’s largest acting school and resource center for actors, returns to Australia July 9 through 12 to teach Australian actors how to market themselves in America. TVI Chief Executive Officer and former agent to Hollywood stars, Alan Nusbaum will present a multi-media presentation, “The Business of Acting in the States” in Sydney on July 9 and Melbourne on July 11 and 12.

“Australian actors are so curious about how to make it in America.” Nusbaum states, “I will teach them how to take control of their own careers and become ‘actor-preneurs,’ actors that are entrepreneurial about their careers.”

Nusbaum has been teaching internationally in the UK and Europe for several years and has recently branched out to include Australia and New Zealand. He created TVI after representing several Hollywood stars such as Sandra Bullock, Courtney Cox, Jerry Orbach, and Tonya Pinkens. “There was a clear need for actors to learn how to manage their career and run it like a business. Most actors come from an artistic background and rarely have business know-how.”

“Actors will leave this class with the knowledge and insight necessary for a successful career in America,” explains Nusbaum, “More importantly, they will be able to apply the same business managerial and self-marketing skills at home in Australia.”
