GOT Actors

Hello all, I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I'm a game of thrones fan. I think that show really pushed me to persue acting (at a drama school in the U.K across the Atlantic for me). bc of how much I love the characters and I wanted to be apart of something...

Middle eastern actors...

Do you have any tips for getting SAG roles or moreso the opportunity to read for SAG roles. I have an agent, read for LA agent - she will sign me once I book a SAG role even if it is a one liner. Literally no idea what to do besides just wait but I have been...

My ideal type of acting would be to have roles on TV shows, but I really don't want to be famous. Are there any options for me?

It sounds like a silly question I know, but is there a way to try out exclusively for small roles which may for example be a reccurring character who only says a few lines every few episodes? I'm thinking of times I'll google who an actor is, and they'll have...

Becoming a voice actor

The number one thing you have to do to be a successful voice actor is get acting training. It's voice ACTING, after all. Assuming you're doing that, THEN what do you do? There's so much more to it, just like there's so much more to on-camera acting. I teach a...

Technique to stop ghosting

Basically it's a combination of the ol' "pretend they killed your dog" trick (at least what my drama teacher called it) and something army cadets taught me. In the army, (Prince of Wales Royal Regiment at least) making direct eye contact isn't allowed. So we...

I have no idea what to do! I want to be an actor, but I didn't acknowledge it until now.

I just finished my freshman year of college. I did some acting way back in elementary school, but haven't followed up in a decade. I've been reflecting and realized that I wish I had continued to keep with it. I realized that I always wanted to keep acting...

Have you ever turned down a role?

Have you ever turned down a role. And I don't mean an audition, because I'm sure we're all done that, but actually booked something and then said no? I have only twice \(I think\). The first was a long time ago and a student film. I was cast as a 16 year...

Is there anything that I am missing?

I am almost done with my freshman year of college, and in this year, I have been getting very involved in acting. In fact, I've recently declared a theatre minor because of this sudden interest in acting. I am just curious if there is any important...

Actors, how hard is it to hold a full time job while trying to get auditions and parts?

Also, how do you work around your schedule to balance both acting and working? For some background, I'm aspiring to be an actor. I have about a year and a half left to finish my accounting degree and plan on moving to LA after I graduate (I live in South...

Bit of an odd question...

Hey all, New to the sub and fairly new to acting as a profession. I've always been passionate AF about acting but in the last year things are blowing up in crazy ways in regards to me acting on stage. Recently, I have been working with a singular director...

When is it appropriate to use a coach for assistance on a role?

I hear of many actors using an acting coach for roles in feature films and television. Have you ever employed the services of a coach? If so, why? Was it a large role? Personally, I usually only work with a coach for self tapes, but I was wondering if it’s...

How do you feel about self-taping?

You love it? Hate it? Think it's fair that actors are expected to audition themselves? Not fair? You feel technically competent to produce a good looking and sounding audition? One that is as good as what you'd get in a casting office? Curious how people feel...

I’m starting to freak out a little.
