Break into Screen Acting More Quickly
Interview with professional actor Nimo Gandhi
Learn how he built an incredible list of screen credits in a short amount of time.
Most actors believe that the standard path to feature film work and recurring television roles starts in theater. But Nimo Gandhi breaks the mold because he jumped into film and television right away, without spending years in theater. He was able to build up a long list of credits that now makes it easier for him to get called in for auditions consistently. What I love most about this interview is the outside-the-box thinking Nimo used to move his career forward at a faster speed than would be expected.
