    Do you audition exactly the way you’ve rehearsed?

    Hello! So I’ve got another theater audition on Saturday and I’ve got two pieces ready to go. I am rehearsing them a certain way, of course. Still playing with things too, tho. But I’d be curious to know how other people treat auditions… That is, do you...

    Hi! Based in Canada. A few months ago I booked two short films back to back on my own, both with interesting, contrasting concepts & directors who had a lot of vision. One has already released and the footage is great. I told my agent about the bookings and...

    The issues Child Actors go through from one himself

    If you [click here, this gives you a recording of my most unfettered opinion](https://voca.ro/1mjSuXf0gKrX). One thing that people need to talk about is pedophilia in Hollywood. There has been a lot of abuse and exploitation involving child actors. Let's say...

    Known Management Group

    Hi! So I’m a new actor with no credits besides a few plays. I found Known Management Group on Instagram and decided it wouldn’t hurt to send a submission. Well, they sent me an email today saying they want to have a meeting. I stalked their Instagram page and...

    Will agents take me in as their client?

    Hi guys, so I’ve got a few screen credits now and I’m looking to get an agent. My problem is, I’m an international student in Australia so my legal work hours are limited to 24hours per week. Now because of that, I’m thinking that it just doesn’t make sense...

    Networking question — would this be weird?

    About five years ago, I got the WhatsApp number of a very busy dubbing director because I was trying to get an interview with him for a project I was working on. We exchanged a few messages, but the project ended up never being picked up, and we haven't...

    Can I be anonymous?

    Hi, I wanna be a voice actor but really want to keep my real identity a secret. Can I still be a voice actor and even have a chance if I use a fake name like Mark Smith, and not show my face? Obviously I’m fine with my real name and face being seen to the...

    Knowing who you are as an actor
