    I have been thinking about moving to NYC to pursue acting since there are way more opportunities out there (for stage) than my current city. How do you guys make ends meet in an expensive city? What side jobs do you have? Where do you live? I have always been...

    Non union and equity PRINCIPAL auditions

    Working with a difficult actor

    So I'm pretty new to film acting and my fellow actor (who was slightly more experienced) was actually nice enough, however there were some things that started to really bother me about him throughout the process. The first thing is, he was a backseat...

    Andy Serkis?

    In a world where motion capture isnt appreciated as an acting art in the elitist acting world (oscars) where do we rank Andy Serkis on his acting caliber alone, comparitively to others. I myself am biased in saying he is my favorite actor (very close with Tom...

    How much do you weigh/what is your size?

    We’re all anonymous here so hopefully no one minds! I just wonder because I consider myself a normal size bordering on slim, but everyone says the camera adds ten pounds and so many actors and actresses I’ve met in real life are bloody tiny! And I read about...
