Make time to go out to bars and clubs and to get as many new contacts as possible. You never know which of your contacts are actual actors and actresses, some of whom are going to be on a higher list than you, and the more contacts you have, the more potential people that you have to either date or to shoot movies, shows and commercials with. Go and meet new contacts while you are waiting for your energy to regenerate.

Each time that you film with someone, though, they will gain more fans, and the higher a list they’re on, the more fans you will gain as well, so try to do a lot of acting with the same person if you don’t have many contacts. If you do, though, then try to match the person that you call to the project that you are doing – for example, if you are doing a sitcom, bring in a sitcom costar.

Purchase as many pets as your current home will allow. These pets will award you bonuses in experience points, energy, money and fans just like acting with a different actor or actress will. Buy a different home if your current one won’t allow you to have enough pets for any real good bonuses.

Every single time that you film, make sure you read and MEMORIZE what the script at Arnie’s office says. As you move up the lists, the scripts will get more difficult to match, because the real lines will only be one or two words off from the bad lines, and if you don’t say the lines right, you’ll have to complete more actions in order to complete filming.

When you are doing any action, and rewards drop, pick them up manually rather than just waiting for them to collect on their own. When you pick them up manually, 5 seconds are cut off of the time required for 1 energy point to regenerate.
