I was wondering whether sending letter to a studio where an actor is currently working on "Touched" movie will increase my chances of him actually getting my letter?

I have personally e-mailed to an executive producer and he gave me an address where to send my letter. Then, per our e-mail conversation, he said that he forwarded my letter to an actor. First letter was sent to an actor' agent exactly one moth ago. The letter to a studio was sent excatly two weeks ago. Nothing yet. The actor that I wrote to is not that well known. He makes only guest appearances, Sam Anderson. If you have watched "Angel" TV series, cancelled in 2003, you might know him as Holland Manners, an evil Senior attorney of Wolfram and Hart law firm. For those who watch ER , he plays there a Cardiologist, DR. Jack Kayson.
Nobody actauly knows his signing patterns. I have a bad feeling that he simply disregarded my request. I know you guys are waiting for 6-9 months. So, one month will seem like nothing. What do you think?

it took two years before I recieved my emilio estevez autograph. i figure the longer the wait the better chance of it being authentic. but not always the case :D

Here's what I do:

1 Do not print your photo's on 'glossy' paper. Matte photo paper works good. I've found that the celebrities sometimes use a non-permanent silver marker to sign... I've had a couple of pics where the autograph literally fell off.

2 To mail the photos I use a 9x12 SASE envelope with a cardboard insert---I only send out 8x10 sized photos printed on 8.5x11 paper---8 x 10 is a standard frame size. You can buy cheap cardbaord boxes for about $.99 at Office Depot and cut 4 or 5 inserts out of each box. Make sure you get a single ply cardboard---double ply cardboard and stiff chip board weigh a lot more and will cost more to ship both ways. I put the photos in the 9x12 SASE envelope with a post-it on the outside that says 'photo enclosed'. I than put the SASE and letter in a 10x13 envelope to mail it to the celeb. I write 'DO NOT BEND' on both the SASE and outer envelope.

3 Postage varies depending on the number of photo's and the weight of the board I use to stiffen the envelope. Generally the SASE is either $.83 or $1.06. The outer envelope is generally $.83, $1.06, or $1.29 depending on exact weight. I use a digital kitchen scale to weigh the envelopes in ounces. I know the shipping rates by memory for now, but you can use http://www.USPS.gov to calculate first-class postage. If you go to the post office and buy a sheet of $.83 and $.23 stamps you'll be well set for any postage costs you'll encounter!

Hope this helps!

Regards,

ZDevin
