As a baby boomer, I had been trying to avoid getting caught
up in this social media frenzy, but as you know, it has now become a way of
life. As an actor, it is crucial to have a strong online presence that stands
out from the crowd. Blake Jamieson’s book, TWITTER FOR ACTORS is the blueprint
to make that happen. It is so concise, well written and informative, I read it
in one sitting pausing only to make adjustments on my twitter page right after
learning something new.
With his clear graphics and step by step instructions,
you’ll have an extreme twitter make-over in minutes! Blake even gives tips on
how to use twitter effectively to build relationships in the entertainment
industry that will last throughout your entire career.
I was doing just that when a casting director I tweeted led
me to finding my birth mother!! As a fellow adoptee, we now have a common bond
deeper than any acting job could ever manifest.
No matter who you’re following on twitter, you must absolutely
add @TFAcom to the list! And check out my page @CarleaseBurke to see how professional
it looks after reading #TwitterForActors!!
