This Summer~
  BB’s Kids Presents :
            A one day Parent Seminar for on-camera Kids with
Belinda ~
  3 Aug 2008                  Sun   11:30-1:30 pm                    $40-

 "Once a parent has made the decision to help their child pursue a career in the Biz, they discover it’s just the beginning of many important decisions to come. Did you know that when an agent is considering your child for representation, they are also considering whether or not they can work with you?" well said by agent Rhonda Richards.  A regular day can be complex enough without auditions added to it. It takes a specially dedicated and educated parent to do it all smoothly. Our goal is to help you streamline the process of learning the “Ins & Outs” of the entertainment industry. This seminar will help protect your child (and your wallet) from common mistakes that so many parents have learned the hard way. In 1½ hours you will be completely ready and empowered to help your child succeed. Points we will cover:

Labor regulations, Training, Difference between Audition/Callback/Avail/Hold Pictures & Resumes,
Coogan Law,  Agency Protocol, Work Permits, Difference between Agent/Manager, Contracts, Commissions

Reserve your space early as seating is limited!!!        323)650-Kids      BBs4Kids@aol.com
