finally, learn how to guide your child's acting career!
This step-by-step program shows you how to become a working actor from scratch!
Featured in:
Hi I am Wendy Alane Wright. I am a former Talent Agent, Manager and the worldâs leading Acting Career Coach.
I get actors working in Commercials, TV & Film
every day of my life.
So, Your Kid Wants to ActâŚ
So many lifelong dreams to be on TV or film start with a school play.
Actors add beauty, love, story, and diversity to the world.Â
Your child is truly starting an exciting journey!
But Hollywood Doesnât Make it Easy.
Hollywood hasnât gone out of its way to show parents how to guide their children to succeed in their acting careers.
At least once in this business, someone going to try to take advantage of you. I promise you that.Â
You hear them on the radio, and see them at the mall every day – promising to make your kid a STARâŚÂ
All theyâre asking you to pay is $5,000 or $10,000.Â
You don’t need to do that EVER.Â
Unfortunately, too many EXTREMELY talented and creative kids get stuck because they (and you – their parents!) donât know what steps to takeâŚÂ Â
They donât know what advice is real – and whatâs notâŚÂ
They donât know how to prepare a powerful package for casting directors, agents, and managersâŚÂ Â
And they donât understand the complicated legal minefield of working in acting as a minor.Â
STOP Wasting Time, Donât Do This Alone:
Youâve probably already spent years trying to figure things out by piecing together information from YouTube, Backstage, and forumsâŚÂ Â
Youâre just hoping youâve got it right.
But the truth is:Â
Being a good actor isnât the ONLY thing it takes to be successful in this business.
And you canât afford to make a mistake with your childâs future.
There are roadmaps to get to any destination, and Hollywood Winnerâs Circle Academy PARENTâS COURSE is by far the most comprehensive plan to successfully guide a working Child Actor.
How Can Hollywood Winnerâs Circle Academyâs PARENT COURSE Help You?
Building a Powerful Package
- Strong, vibrant headshots
- Believable acting clips
- Online acting profiles that are optimized for casting directorsâ search
- Properly formatted resumes, profiles, and materials
Getting Representation for a Child Actor
As a parent, the #1 thing you want for your child is for them to be successful.
Unfortunately, Hollywood doesnât go out of its way to make it easy to figure out this business⌠And the second you walk into an agentâs office itâs clear their expectations are higher than ever before.Â
Now you can get an insiderâs perspective on the difference between Agents & Managers, and what role they play in your childâs acting career.
This step-by-step system shows you how to guide your child through Hollywood, and demystify the business of acting.
Understanding the LEGAL Side of âChild Actingâ
The LAST place you want to be piecing together information from the internet is the legality of your childâs career.Â
Iâve seen too many successful careers stalled because parents didnât understand the full requirements of guiding their children financially, legally, or legally.Â
Depending on the state your child is living, and/or working in, whether the project is union or non-union, and their age – youâre going to have to follow different requirements.Â
This course will empower your to learn about the most common contracts youâll sign, occupational safety requirements your child may be required to follow, and what it means for your child to join the SAG-AFTRA union – or get representation.
Here's what you get in Hollywood Winnerâs Circle Academy PARENTS COURSE:
1. Intro
2. Acting Training
3. Online Casting Websites
4. Acting Resume
5. Professional Headshots

Wendy, I just wanted to tell you thank you. I took the HWC PARENT course in two days and went through the entire guidebook. I spent more than 3 hours updating my daughter’s resume on all her casting sites and in the individual formats for each of her agencies based off your advice. It could be a coincidence, but she got two big audition requests come in not long after I finished the updates.Â
Thank you for providing much needed input to help me help her agents succeed.
With much appreciation,
– Jennifer Walsh (mom to 11-year-old actress Annalise Bergen)
This is for anyone “on the fence” about learning from WendyâŚ. DO IT NOW!!! Its worth every single penny and then some! Let me assure you that Wendy has solid advice no matter where you are on your journey in the world of acting. We are not total “newbies” but nonetheless had hit some bumps and needed sound advice and clear direction. Wendy provided all that and more. Your session will clear your doubts as Wendy will tell it like it is and give you a solid game plan with tasks to execute and habits to develop that will renew your mission and fill you with positivity. This is a fantastic way to get management advice prior to being in a place where you need a manager full time. We will be back for more guidance as things develop. Wendy, thanks for providing this service. You are a gem!

Wendy, Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge and educating us further. You’re willingness to be candid has given Gabby, not only food for thought, but also courage. I now better understood how to evaluate a manager’s performance and my expectations. The knowledge has given us more confidence. To other actors: I suggest whatever means available to learn from Wendy. It’s better to have the information needed to be prepared for this industry. You’ll second guess yourself less and save time and money. On a personal note, we enjoyed your openness and overall sense of positivity. It’s refreshing and exactly what we needed.”
– Gabrielle and Elise Fisher
Wendy, we are so blessed to be able to tap into your wisdom and insight. We now have a priority list for our plan of action. It is obvious that you genuinely care about nurturing actors – for that we are grateful.

Wendy I just discovered you today and just wanted to say I am thoroughly enjoying your videos. I so appreciate you honesty and frank communication. You truly are a blessing to a novice trying to figure out this whole thing for three children. You truly take the fear out of the most of the process. You give so freely, which is rare todayâŚyou are a breath of fresh air!

“Hello Wendy,
Your advice, sense of humor, and honesty was a complete homerun for me as a parent of a child actor who is simply trying to navigate the waters and learn more about the acting world as we continue our journey.
As I mentioned to you, I am a big fan, (also can read as “stalker” ) of every bit of information that I can siphon off of your website, and FaceBook page. I am thrilled that I signed up to learn from you. I was looking for guidance in 2 general areas. First, I wanted to improve my daughter Quincy’s resume and on-line presence by making sure we are highlighting the correct things, and removing the not-so great things; second, I really needed a push in the right direction to validate my gut feelings, learn to trust those gut feelings, and make changes in our course of direction that will best serve Quincy in the short term and long term. Guess what, I learned all of that, and I now have vastly more information.
Wendy, your knowledge was a real eye -opener! You confirmed many things that I was having the bad juju feelings about, and you defined the steps to start making those corrections, and move forward. I feel like SUPERWOMAN! Let’s get this train back on the rails and moving on down the track! (whoo hoo..insert train noise here).
I urge all parents of kid actors, to learn from you. The wealth of information that you share is priceless. I now have a step by step map that we can follow. You have a positive and logical method of providing feedback and information in a way that I could understand, and then put right to use. I can’t speak highly enough of my time spent with you. But don’t take my word for it, take Quincy’s 12 year old word for it, “This is the best thing my mom has ever done.” There you have it, out of the mouth of a tween.
Thanks again, Wendy, your forever fan,
