JIV AND OMAR’S TIPS FOR DOUBLE BILLS

1. Keep an open dialogue at all times between production partners.
2. Maintain a “Road House” mentality. Keep your tech tight, flexible and ready to go!  This saves on tech time, and keeps you prepared for everything that will go wrong!
3. It’s all about the collective.  No competition only joint success.  Choose your team based on their love for what the whole project is about.  The last thing you need is division.

Greta chats with Laws of Motion actor David Tompa about working under the Artists Collective Policy.

3 Tips from David Tompa for Actors Working Under the CAEA Artists Collective Policy

1. Have people involved who are not acting in the play. That way when the last week comes, the actors can put their efforts into acting and everything else that needs to happen will be taken care of by others.
2. There is no room for divas. It’s a collective.  Everyone needs to help with everything.  You are all going to build and sweep and fold and mop.
3. Remember that you love this.

Things will get rough.

Things will go wrong.

Mistakes will be made.

Just breathe and remember that you’re doing this because you love it and the people you’re with.

JOHNNY WALKER’S 5 TIPS FOR PEOPLE DOING THEIR 1^ST FRINGE SHOW:

1.     Find people you trust and like to working with, even if they have little to no experience.

2.     Befriend an amazing photographer.  This is how you get press-awesome photos.

3.     Fundraise, fundraise, fundraise!  Do not go into a show with zero capital and expect to recoup all you expenses from your box office.

4.     If you write your own work and you have limited resources, write to your resources.  Don’t write set pieces you can’t afford or characters you will never be able to cast.

5.     Sell your work.  A catchy title, pithy synopsis, memorable poster and aggressive web presence go a long way.
