Entertainment is a form of recreation that diverts or holds attention. It can be anything from a movie to a game. It may make people happy or sad. Some entertainment is scary, like horror movies. It can also make people laugh, like comedy shows.
Many forms of entertainment provide subtle or direct commentaries on specific issues – social, political or economic. They act as the ideal conduit to present a narrative to audiences that might spark change.
Whether you are a performance artist or just trying to break into the business, you should take some time to study what others are doing and learn how the industry works. However, keep in mind that you should always be true to yourself. Trying to be someone else will only hurt your chances of success. When you are ready to start pursuing opportunities, be sure to ask your contact for advice in a minimal and non-presumptuous manner.
