UdevelopME is that big break and that foot in the door to stardom. 

Getting the small roles are what make way for bigger roles or jobs in the future. UdevelopME is not stating that you will become famous instantly, or even at all. They will however provide you with the tools, facilities, and exposure needed to be found by industry professionals. They have had some clients play small roles on shows like Law & Order SVU, The Following, and Boardwalk Empire. You may feel like small roles such as those are pointless, but very few celebrities became famous overnight.

 UdevelopME preaches the importance of the small roles and how they can help develop you into a better actor, singer, model or whatever it is you may be aiming for. You may now be wondering what kind of tools are being used to help me. UdevelopME builds a portfolio for you, or as it is called in the modeling and acting worlds, a composite card. This card is your resume. Your "resume" is then entered into a database that industry professionals and talent agents use when looking for a specific person to play a role, be in a magazine, etc.

UdevelopME has access to this database and also has a large amount of industry contacts due to their years of experience. UdevelopME is not just their to take your picture, wish you luck, and send you on your way.

Scarlett Johansson Almost Quit Acting Until ...

By Tim Levin

The story recently told by Scarlett Johansson is one that could teach a lesson to young stars everywhere. Johansson admitted recently that she almost gave up on acting and quit it for good. The near-decision came after Johansson felt uninspired from her work and was not getting the same joy and thrill from acting as she once did. It was not until Johansson took on a role in the 2009 Broadway revival of 'A View from the Bridge', that she reinvigorated her love of acting. 

Sometimes it takes something new or leaving your comfort zone to help you realize why you are doing what you do. In the case of acting, it is important to remind yourself why you love acting and do not get lost in it as if it were just another job. To all the young stars, like those at UdevelopME, remember it is important to keep your head high and do not get discouraged. Sometimes you may feel uninspired by what you are doing, but try something new instead of giving up altogether. 

UdevelopME is not only here to help you get acting roles or modeling shoots. We are here to develop you into a star and teach you the right mindset to have as an actor, a model, or even a singer. UdevelopME preaches the idea of taking on new adventures, trying new things, and always keeping your head up. If Scarlett Johansson never tried something new she may never have pursued her acting career, and never made the movies we now love. 

Keep your head up and never get discouraged. UdevelopME is here for you and to mentor you in pursuit of your career whether acting, modeling, or singing.
