Getting Proactive About Your Acting Career
Jerry, more than any other actor I know, has been incredibly systematic in creating a career for himself as a POC actor in Germany and internationally. He’s mastered the art of actor branding by applying his deep knowledge of the film industry, combined with insights from his previous career in marketing and even his university studies as a lawyer, to the business of acting.
Refusing to accept being typecast as a "thug" or "immigrant" because of his skin tone, Jerry redefined how casting directors see him. In other words, he took control of defining his brand as an actor. But Jerry didn’t stop there. He also made it a priority to ensure people not only see him the way he wants to be seen but know who he is through smart, targeted marketing strategies. His personal branding for actors is a masterclass in standing out in a competitive industry.
So, grab a "Spezi," sit back, and enjoy. This is a good one.

BTW, I use Riverside to record all of my interviews and can't recommend it highly enough. It delivers much better audio and video than Zoom in separate, editable video and audio files. Try it for free. And if you’d like to take your editing to the next level then try Descript. It’s what I use for all my interviews and it’s intuitive A.I. can’t be beat.
