Edwards & Hill Communications, LLC uses its www.FutureCasting2000.com web
site to inform, educate and protect fame seekers from scams and other potential dangers in
the entertainment industry. Talent and crew can also use the web site to find work and/or
promote their talents to industry professionals via the auditions, crew jobs and online
talent/crew database.
There are millions of people eager to break into the entertainment industry and many
are desperate. Edwards & Hill Communications receives hundreds of e-mails each day
from people wanting to know how to break into show business and some of these people are
willing to do anything. The fact that the sky is the limit for what will be done to
"make it" is literally spelled out in a lot of the e-mails received by the
company. "We get e-mail that includes full name, address, e-mail address, school
name, work and home numbers, hours at work and home, physical description and pictures. In
the wrong hands, this information could be used to do everything from burglarize
someone’s home to stalking that individual", says Hans Edwards, co-owner of
Edwards & Hill Communications, LLC.
FutureCasting2000.com is an entertainment industry resource that provides information
on how to get started, maintain and flourish in this business. In addition to providing
information to rising stars, the owners of FutureCasting2000.com feel they have a moral
obligation to protect rising stars from the dark side of this business. Visitors to the
web site are warned, via e-mails and the online e-zine, about the many scams in the
entertainment industry and are also educated about the type of information that should and
should not be sent over the Internet, particularly in an e-mail.
The fame and fortune are a real possibility and a number of people have landed roles in
Television pilots and other productions as a direct result of FutureCasting2000.com.
"While we are proud to offer the kind of forum that helps talent get started and
helps producers find that talent, we must be diligent about teaching people to be safe as
they use our site and the Internet in general," says Edwards.
