    Street Casting, do I need to tell my agent?

    I am a newer actor and saw a street casting for a commercial that I want to submit to. Is this something I need to tell my agent about? I'd rather find out before than upset them and get cancelled or something. Thanks for your input.

    Where to find Chicago casting calls?

    Where can I find casting calls in Chicago, besides Backstage, casting Networks, Actors Access? It makes no sense to pay a subscription for 1 or 2 auditions I might not get. It’s hard to find casting calls now days. I have good headshots and self tapes...

    Just a little venting.

    Just here to vent that a while ago I saw a Paul King project come through on actors access that I KNEW in my gut was for a role as Ginger Rodger’s based on the description and request for tap dancers. Sure enough I saw today that Sabrina Carpenter was cast as...

    Agencies in Australia

    Hey guys, I’m a fairly new actor in Australia (less than 3 years of on-off classes, some gigs as model/extra/actor, etc.). I was signed to an agency for a year and it opened a lot of opportunities, but I had to take a step back from acting for a few months...

    Can you change physical habits when acting?

    I’ve noticed that I tend to keep my lips/jaw quite tense when I speak, and I also move my eyebrows a LOT. I’ve become very aware of it on camera, and sometimes it makes my expressions look unnatural to me. Is this something actors consciously work on and...

    Feeling lost with the industry

    I'm a mid twenties actress, graduated from a reputable UK drama school 3 years ago. I was very fringe theatre "the CRAFT" oriented at the time and didn't really wanna engage with the agents industry side of it because I didn't feel screen was for me. About a...

    Questions for VA’s who also do IRL acting: Boundaries

    I’m (25F) a voice actor, haven’t done much, mostly indie stuff. Very much enjoy it. I also do community theater. I believe doing theater has helped me be a better voice actor, but I don’t plan to do community theater professionally, for me it’s just a fun way...

    Positive experiences working in Hollywood?

    I carry a lot of narratives about Hollywood being an unsafe place to work from the media and what the general public thinks of actors. At the same time, I know it's possible to have a completely different experience. I know it's possible to genuinely enjoy...

    What can I do in my position?

    Hi everyone! I'm 14 and I'm from Russia. I really want to become an actor. It's been my dream since I was 5 years old. The problem is, in my town there aren't any film companies (at least I can't find any). At school we often perform plays, and I always join...

    Am i too ugly to be an actor?

    Looks are so nightly valued, I worry I’m not pretty enough to act. Edit: My high school director would constantly typecast me as the ugly comic relief or the old person. I was usually like a maid or something instead of a princess. She might’ve just hated me...
