    The approval problem

    I really try not to fall into the trap of my sense of self-worth depending on someone's approval of me, but I can't escape it sometimes. I have a show tomorrow and we had a final rehearsal tonight that some local theatre people came to see, including my first...

    What do YOU wear to auditions?

    I think a thread of talking about what we all wear to auditions could be a fun way to get to know the range of options depending on field, level, and person. I'll go first: I'm a regional stage actor. My go-to for auditions is black jeans that I can move in...

    Hi! I'm taking a zoom class dealing with a specialized aspect of acting from a very famous, and by reputation at least, supposedly very good acting studio. It's the kind of studio every actor with training knows about and recommends for this topic. The...

    Acting Scene in Seattle

    Hello Fellow Actors! I was wondering what the Film/TV acting scene was like in Seattle currently. Is it still practically non existent? Is there anybody living in the Seattle area that consistently books in Vancouver? Is the drive feasible or a bit much?

    Worst Free Porject I've Taken Part Of

    So, a few weeks ago, I saw a post on one of my state's many acting Facebook groups. It was for a slasher/horror film. Of course, it was a free project and I decided to throw my resume in despite having no care in the world if I got in or not. For a little...

    Background should have its own sub

    This sub gets bogged down with questions about background work and I think it should have it's own sub. This is not a slight against those who do background work. It is challenging work and essential to tv/filmmaking. But it is not acting, and has nothing to...

    Is the classic Hollywood Dream dead?

    Is it possible to move to LA or NY, pay your dues, take classes, and actually get somewhere anymore? Not necessarily being the biggest star ever over night but I mean can somebody who isn’t an influencer or a person without connections, wealth, and nepotism...

    Survival jobs?

    As actors, what types of survival jobs do you all have that allow you the flexibility to attend auditions, callbacks, shoots, performances, etc? My current job doesn't allow much of that and I'm looking into finding something better so that I can advance my...

    How often do CDs extend audition deadlines?

    I got a self tape request through ecocast a day ago for a network series regular pilot. By the time I got a reader to help me tape, I did my audition last minute and submitted to my agent about 5 minutes past the deadline due to difficulties uploading the...
