The SECRET to Building a Bi-Continental Acting Career
Actors often think success comes from luck, but breaking into the U.S. market as an actor takes strategy. In this episode of Act Bold, I talk with Marc Schöttner, who built his international career by making smart, intentional moves—including securing a Green Card for Extraordinary Ability with a 225-page application.
We dive into the realities of financial stability for actors, why Marc chose New York over LA for actors, and how he learned that booking acting roles without an agent is possible when you focus on building relationships in the film industry.
If you’ve ever wondered how to get a U.S. visa for acting, what really moves your career forward, and how to stop waiting for opportunities and start creating them—this is the episode for you.
