LIFE COACHING FOR ACTORS


Hi dearest Actors!
Here at Tula Central it looks like a bomb has hit! I am in the throes of culling, everything has to go before I base myself back in Sydney, where the work is! It is so cleansing getting rid of Stuff!
Ah the life of the Actor, here there and everywhere. We are not in the easiest of professions are we? Between the creativity, business savvy necessity, rejections, more than another person would experience by a million times, competition etc etc its a wonder any of us are sane!
That’s another subject. I see so many Celebrities battle with weight, addictions, relationships and self destructive patterns. That’s why I wrote THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR ebook for you and that’s why I specialise in Life Coaching for Actors, because I have been one for over 20 years and have worked just as hard on personal growth for that time. That’s why,
I am always here to help!
love Tula Tzoras

Acting and Personal Values

Happy Monday dear Actors!
I hope this finds you well and practicing your Secret Weapon from THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR ebook!

I was watching an episode of the Glee Project the other night, where one of the contestants had issues kissing another contestant in a scene due to his religious beliefs. It reminded me of a role I was cast in playing a porn starlet for a feature film, then called The Venus Factory. All of a sudden I thought of my parents and their conservative background and started fearing the day they may watch the film!

When I spoke with them however, their response was "you are an actor, its your job to play characters". I was astounded and of course they were right. As an Actor we must inhabit characters and become their vehicle. We do not play ourselves. Therefore religious beliefs and personal value systems do not come into it. The poor kid from the Glee Project is not an actor of course and that's why his religious beliefs stopped him from acting in that scene.

Well, I am in the throes of preparing to move back to Sydney in a month! Having to fly up for castings has become untenable, we must go where the work is!

Flat out as I am, I am always thinking of you fellow Actors,

Rejection is a Part of Development!

Dearest Actors,
I hope this finds you well and happy and you are using your Secret Weapon from THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR e-book and Creating your dreams!

Here at Tula Central, I am holding on to the very wise statement that "Every failure is the seed of Success". As an Actor, I also Create and Produce, amongst other things. Well, for the entire year I have been pitching a total of 8 programs to Television Networks. My Mentor told me "I write a great concept" ! We are now in August and on that front I have heard No, No, No, Maybe and NO! At one point the ABC considered 3 of my shows for weeks before they said No. SBS did the same with 2 of my shows.

How can one avoid the feeling of disappointment, especially when the most important of all Shows is aimed at Empowering people in Developing Nations and ceasing Suffering and Hunger and Disease?
Well, I can't. All I can do is take one day at a time and be grateful for what I have, taking well into consideration that rejection is just a part of development in Television and it is all about timing.

As Actors Rejection is also a part of our Journey. But we plant the seeds and in good time they blossom into the most beautiful flowers. So we hold on tight to our Dream with Unshakeable Purpose and take all the Actions we need to Every Day!

Acting and Life!

Hi Dear Aspiring, Working and Struggling Actors,
Yesterday was my brother in law's birthday. My parents live near my sister and family, so I dropped in to see them first. Dad surprised me with a video that was taken in the 80s of us. It was amazing to see us all so young and acknowledge the time that has passed.

My sister is heavily pregnant at the moment and I gave her a hand preparing streamers and cake and presents with the help of my precious 3 year old niece. My parents arrived and we all had a priceless family evening celebrating.

With everything that's happening in the world at the moment, I have been thinking how fragile life is and how important it is for us as Actors to be able to use the wealth of life experience in our work, but also to ensure that we are not so fully obsessed with Acting, as I confess I have been in the past, that we loose all sight of balance and what really matters, Love!

The 2 Day Intensive Workshop for Actors, based on THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS E-BOOK, in Melbourne is filling up for this weekend, make sure you book in asap and you can bring a friend free, email actorssecretweapon@gmail.com.

There are limited places, so book now at actorssecretweapon@gmail.com. I posted the course breakdown for you and it includes a free Download of THE SECRET OF YOUR SUCCESS AS AN ACTOR E-book!

Being an Actor is like being Change itself and one thing we can take for granted in life is Change! In the last few weeks I have been between Melbourne and Sydney with Castings. After living in Melbourne for the last 3 years and enjoying my family, I am now planning to return to Sydney for work. Luckily I have very close friends there and really, after a while, its only geography.

As usual I have so much going on, with my pitch in at SBS for JUST DO IT, my humanitarian documentary series, the 2 day Intensive Workshop coming up and then running all over the country and Castings for jobs, Microphone work etc etc

I am really looking forward to the 2 Day Intensive, it will be so beneficial for all and develop great networks of Actors using their Secret Weapon!

Casting Directors and Directors

Dearest Actors,
I hope this finds you well and truly on your way to success! Today I am going to give you a little tip, one that many working Actors use on Casting Directors and Directors of projects you wish to work on!

Whatever you do, ensure you Download my e-book first! The Secret of Your Success as an Actor, Industry Acclaimed. Go to www.actorssecretweapon.com

Ok! Apart from having an agent, there is absolutely no harm in informing Casting Directors when you work, sending them footage or inviting them to a show you are doing. It helps keep you fresh in their mind and allows them to see you play different roles.

Research upcoming productions and find out what they are about. You can express your interest to the Director of the Project you wish to work on!

Always here to help,
Tula Tzoras
