    Are showcases from backstage a scam?

    I always see that there are showcases on backstage titled like „VIP Agent/Manager Showcase“ where you perform for the industry professionals (via zoom) and get instant feedback. I looked through the list of agents attending and there are agents from very...

    My thoughts and expectations about acting

    I don’t have a passion. I didn’t know what to do in college, and I picked at random: economics and cs (since from there I can do data science which goes in different fields). However, during the pandemic (the first lockdown) I realized I loved movies and tv...

    Asked for Submission Report

    I asked my manager for a submission report and they responded that they do not send out reports. They are with a well respected office, but I was under the impression submission reports are information actors are entitled to have. Is this something that has...

    Opinion on sex scenes

    I saw this thread on twitter earlier about a debate on sex scenes which I thought was interesting seeing non actors talking about it, so why not ask the community that actually have the chance in being in one some day, or maybe decline being in one. Do you...

    Hey I’m new to this sub and voice acting in general

    I’m trying to figure out how to word this question so I don’t invoke the wrath of the Reddit intellectuals… So I’ll start with a bit about myself. I’m a 30 year old factory worker from the mid west. I’ve always been interested in voice acting but I’ve never...

    Is Backstage worth it for Canadians?
