Question: From Patty, New York

okay, so how do you find auditions/ management? Its a pretty basic question but I know there are a lot of scam artists out there, so where do you find legitimate agencies?

Question: From Tom. New York.

Two hours ago I got a call from an old improv friend saying his girlfriend's production company needed a Brit voice-over NOW.

I told 'em I was non-union, they said that was cool, and I went. It was for [high-end shoe company - sic]. Crazy. I think it's just a concept piece, because from what you told me, there's no way you could luck into a gig like that if it was for air. I was doing a cockney footballer voice.

So, great news! They were nice, and I'm very glad I did it. But what the fuck should I do? I didn't even ask about money (stupid, but I didn't want to mess up the opportunity). How would you handle this? Do you think I should broach the topic of money, or let this one slide as a relationship builder? How should I approach getting a copy of the tape for my reel? I want to follow up with them tomorrow and talk about my range, but I want to come off as professional etc.

So... yay! And.. help!?
