We finally finished our fantasy audio drama pilot with 8 voice actors! Would love some honest feedback :)) by xcantene • last post Aug 6th
Hi everyone, we finally finished our fantasy audio drama pilot, *Tales of Skyland: Legend of the Soulwards*. We worked with 8 really talented voice actors, and it was honestly amazing hearing the characters come to life. It was a looooot harder than I expected... especially finding the right sound effects, creating some of the music, then putting everything together X\_\_\_X but we are really happy with how it turned out and would love some honest feedback. :))

I'm 14 male and always wanted to try acting. by Consistent-Tennis918 • last post Aug 6th
Hello, I am a 14 year old male who always wanted to start acting, I was wondering if anybody could give me advice.. I am pretty anxious and insecure since I was bullied back then so I never really wanted my face to be seen so I never asked my parents to let me join an acting class, but honestly I'm starting to care less about how I look on camera and I've got alot of hobbies but I always wanted to become an actor, idk if this is important but i speak like 6 languages and have the highest level u can get in the education system here in Curaçao. I always wanted to get out of this place, be well known and get young fans to relate to me or help people out, I always wanted to live in a country with skyscrapers or have my name be known. Any tips?? And is acting way too difficult for a 14 year old to handle and still be sane?
demo reels… help! by FlowerBoxes • last post Aug 6th
hi, i’m a female teen actor! i’m signed with a local sag agency and i’ve done a commercial & student film before, but i’m still struggling to find my footing & would love some advice. i know the whole deal with self-tapes, but im not sure how to make an effective demo reel (or really what the difference is?). i was signed with basically no experience (dont worry, not a scam - just an impressive audition tape!) and my agent has pointed me in the direction of some places that will create a demo reel for you at a steep price, but obviously i’d rather not pay. is a demo reel just a self tape with a monologue? or is it an actual scene out of a film? how do i create one that stands out…. and how do i choose the right monologue, just something off of stage milk? should i use clips from the commercial & student film (where i don’t speak)? i’m really excited to get into acting, but it’s pretty hard to get even an audition or call back if i don’t know how to make an effective demo reel, lol. i’ve watched some videos on youtube and looked through faq, but all it’s really done is confuse me more. looking for some guidance! thanks :)
Boston Casting Auditions? by DriverOk4157 • last post Aug 6th
I am a local sag actor based in Boston. It feels like audition opportunities through Boston Casting are few and far between. Are they just super selective with who they call in / stick to a tight pool of favorites? In a smaller market like Boston, it can be discouraging when local actors don’t get the opportunity to audition for the major projects coming through. Would love to hear other local actors’ experience.

Representation by acting51 • last post Aug 6th
is it just me or is it really hard to get signed as a non union actor? I am self submitting auditioning , have headshots, reel etc… doing a workshop next month with a well known manager and of course I hope I do well. But it’s hard out here for sure. And I do believe exposure doing workshops and showcases do help when it’s the right one.
This whole demonization of method needs to stop. by sseerrsan • last post Aug 6th
Does she know Stella Adler (a woman) was one of the best teachers for method acting? Method is now seen as a joke thanks to people who are NOT method acting but just being pricks (like Leto). These (very few) actors like Daniel Day Lewis or Heath Ledger were using ideas based on method acting but they were also making their own stuff, staying on character after the cut was never a thing in any of the schools for method. Now the whole idea is demonized or wrongly attached to these male actors which is ridiculous and ignorant imo.
one of my favorite actors ? by acting51 • last post Aug 6th
so one of my favorite actors that I want to work with follows me on IG, which is so cool a lot of people think I should play a family relative of hers on the show I do see the vision and it’s literally my dream even if it’s a little hard to dream of it since I am currently unrepresented but it’s a nice dream to have?? here is a cute collage of us side by side, she means the world to me and hopefully one day I get a chance to act alongside her.
Looking for actors for a short film in Bangalore (paid) by sarmation • last post Aug 6th
I've been wanting to try out acting since watching Captain Marvel, but it's so hard to find support for such an ambition from both family and outside by Cookieman_2023 • last post Aug 6th
There's this narrative that Asians can't be actors because it's a high risk field. Well in general, I think it is because from what I've heard, only a few are selected to be the chosen ones ascending to A-list level. But what I find extremely unhelpful is that everyone around me is against the idea. Unfortunately, I grew up with the typical Asian parents who dictate what your future should look like. That is, doctor, lawyer, accountant, engineer and other traditional fields. Literally everyone, including extended relatives, their sons and daughters are going to these exact same fields. Not only that but also on the internet, I get mean snarky comments that are super unhelpful and very ambition-destroying, creating feelings of hopelessness. They turn personal and start insulting me and calling me delusional and grandiose. Simu Liu dreamt of being an actor and similar to me, he had to fight off asian parents and the status quo to make that happen. Then eventually, an opportunity came up and it made him famous compared to before. Now I understand not every actor will get this, but I also understand that if you don't try, it's guaranteed to never happen. I find it very difficult to find support, especially when it comes to finding out what I want for my destiny. Family is against me, internet strangers are against me and both of them are fueling my internal self-doubts which also work against me. In addition, there are less characters available to play in Hollywood because there aren't that many people writing up stories of asian-based characters in the first place. I'm just feeling a little regret because I'm 24 now and it's still going to take 2 more years before I finally finish my degree. On the other hand, there's already a lot of Gen Z actors that've been playing the game since 10 years ago. They had supportive parents that are willing to risk it and sadly, that's not really the case in most Asian households. I'm feeling like all I have is myself if I want to do whatever I want to do in life.
I feel like this sub can be very pessimistic at times by 121mc555 • last post Aug 6th
I want to be clear that this sub has been very helpful for a bunch of different reasons and I think overall it is a net positive to have a community like this. But lately, I've been seeing a lot of posts with a tone similar to that of "the industry has changed so much that no more regular working actors can live anymore and only the top one percent are ever going to succeed, and it's never been this bad, and this is just going to be how it is from now on." While I never want to disregard someone's lived experiences/feelings, I've realized that for me, reading those posts and comments makes me feel so down about myself and where I'm looking to go in my acting career, rather than pushing me to be the best actor I can be. I'm not delusional; the industry is very slow right now, but I also know that there is still opportunity out there and that I just need to give it time. Just wanted to offer this perspective in case anyone needed to hear it. Yeah, it may suck a bit right now, but keep looking for the light that keeps you going.
Can actors be held accountable for the final product as a whole? by ChoiceAd8619 • last post Aug 6th
Hello people, first question here. I am just an amateur who definitely does not want to get ahead of himself since I haven’t even taking any sort of acting classes whatsoever lol. I was entertaining the possibility of acting because I like art and partaking of large pieces of art is obviously an appealing idea, but I was having some small doubts about the whole process. But before you answer, I would like to propose a hypothetical scenario. Let’s say that you are an actor or actress at a show in a streaming platform, to give an easy example. You give your all to this project and try to do your best to exceed at the paper that you have been cast to do, but for some reason such as a shaky plot or general animosity from the public over political/social commentary, the show ends up being absolutely terrible according to total earnings and the critics. Would that impact how much you are paid even if you had nothing to do with it? And as a follow up question, can this seriously impact your possibilities of being called for any role again or would that be based more of what casting directors think of your performance as opposed to how much you made the project earn? That’s pretty much all. Short post. Looking forward to any response.
Can you share your experience with the Casting Network site? Threads in this community makes me feel cautious but I also don’t know if that’s just negative experiences being shared only & positive ones not being shared? by w7090655 • last post Aug 6th
I have never used it but am helping a friend of mine who is a fresh actor, to submit their video. I was trying to find “How To” videos on the Tube. Didn’t find and somewhere along the way, whether google search or whatever, a Reddit post from this community showed up mentioning the site. Then I opened the thread and read comments with people talking about paywalls, file size, essentially Frontier/Spirit of casting sites? Searched and saw some other threads mentioning similar things. So my question is, is it a scam? Is it worth it? Has anyone gotten jobs through it? Do you spend more using this site than Actors access—which does have a paid membership but also I’m not paying for every submission or file size or changing my photos around. Are the quality of jobs found on CN different than what you’d find on Actors Access. I know there are a lot of questions, just trying to give responders multiple entry points to provide an a sweep. My worry is my friend getting scammed for their naïvete and dreams.
