I’m brand new to voice acting. I’ve been approached by a few people who have asked how much I charge for full broadcast rights. I’m obviously not complaining, but why do voice actors charge more for full broadcast rights? It’s no additional work so I guess I...

Should I disclose that I’m an actor when applying for regular jobs?

I live in the LA market and I’ve heard that employers won’t hire someone if they know they’re an actor because they get the impression that they’d have to call out a bunch for auditions. People have told me it’s better to lie and not mention it at all, and...

I was just offered an actor's dream side-gig, willing to accept all my terms! I of course accepted - I'm freaking out right now!

Acting work for non-celebrities is few and far between. So, we need a stable, but flexible, job. Therein lies the rub. Well, I've been teaching for about 6 years, now, and a school has been pursuing me for the past year. I've told them I can't work for them...

Am I even an actor? I’m 30 years old, wanting to be an actor. I can tell you movies I enjoy watching, but anything more detailed than that, good luck. I can’t even tell you who the writer, producer, or casting director is for The Goonies or Titanic. Both

Sure, I could google the answer, so I don’t look stupid, but I wouldn’t last in a trivia game show. People ask me who my favorite directors, producers, writers, or casting directors are, and I draw a blank. I’m not even a movie buff. I enjoy acting and...
