Small audition advice

Hi! 20 year old actress here, relatively new as I only started acting about 3 years ago. I tend to usually only get small auditions, which is kinda a bummer because I find them really hard to do. (Though I'm still grateful to get anything) They usually are...

Is it Necessary to Learn Gymnastics?

I keep seeing all of these actors that also are learning stunt work and I feel like I should probably do that? Is it important/detrimental to a budding career to not learn gymnastics? Also, any recommendations of good gymnastics studios for actors in LA?

do actors get paid per episode for a cartoon series?

Or do they get paid per session? So say for example an actor was appearing in 8 episodes of a cartoon, would they get paid a free for each episode they appeared in or just for as many sessions it took to record all their lines ?

Approaching the subject of acting in the interview process.

So this is along the “usual questions” line. Similar to “how do you balance a consistent income and also work as an actor.” My question is, how do you bring up you’re a working actor during the “day job” interview process? What did you say and when in the...
