Opinions on breakdowns with scripts attached for submissions.

Would love to hear everyone’s opinion on this. Mostly just curious… When you see a breakdown posted on Casting Networks, and it has the scene attached, and mentions to submit a self tape of you reading the scene for the audition, do you usually submit to...

Casting Director, using throwaway so I can be honest. Sometimes actors make me hate my job.

Actors who reach out to casting directly - you are not entitled to a response, ever. As human beings, a principle that everyone understands is that just because another human being wants something from you, it doesn't entitle them to it. Since Covid started...

Starting to Feel More Confident/Feeling Like Good Things Are Coming

Honestly this is just a ramble post so. I feel like Los Angeles in general is this BIG mental health tapeworm for newer actors, or maybe that’s just me. But I’ve been off and on depressed for the past year and a half that I’ve lived here and been very...

Aspiring and working actors - how much effort into your appearance do you put in.

I'm 36 and new to acting - I'm self-conscious about my skin and my figure and I was wondering if everyone else puts quite a bit of effort in being film/tv friendly, appearance-wise. Do you have a strict regime or just let it slide. I'm not against improving...

How do actors have interesting things to share on interviews/talk shows?

I'm not sure if this is allowed here as I suppose only questions related to acting itself should be in this sub, but I don't know where else I might get answers,so. Please let me know if there is else where for such question. So, the question: I always...

Hey guys! I signed with my agent about 10 months ago. Had about 20-25 tapes for different things with them. Nothing booked. Been pencilled three times and had one good feedback. I started to hate doing tapes. I don’t know… the worst thing is that people tell...

If my C-Mail request says “3rd Pass,” does that mean that they’ve called 2 groups of actors in before me?

If anyone has any insight, I would love to know! I’ve always wondered what the “1st/2nd/3rd pass” system is from the casting perspective.

Any actors that have played zombies…

I am playing a character in a film who eventually turns into a zombie. For those who have done something similar, what did your process entail? Zombies are supposed to be brain dead, but I don’t necessarily want to be dead in my brain, you know?
