I’m a beginner actor in NYC. I have 20k saved and I want to train super hard, network, and jump in ASAP because I’m only getting older. What do you guys suggest I do? Classes and a coach simultaneously? If so any recommendations? I feel like I’m being...

I’m in a feature film, have my own scene with an A list actor, but no lines. The focus of the whole scene was on me. Can I add this to my resume? I’m credited on IMDb.

For context: I was directed by the director and it took roughly 1 hr to film my scene (different angles, specific activity in scene that took time to reset). I didn’t sign a principal contract but was 100% recognizable in the final shot and credited in...

Has anyone been verified on Twitter with IMDb credits?

The reason I ask is that Twitter says they will verify you if you have 50+ credits. But on IMDb it will say for example… “Actor (10 credits)” …if you have done 10 shows, no matter how many episodes you’ve done. Does anyone know if Twitter is referencing this...

I want to get into acting… I think?

To preface this, I have little to no acting experience. Once I got a callback when I was 16, but that’s it. Now, I am 23, and the question in my head occasionally arises “should I try and act?”. This question pops in my head whenever I see a performance that...

Agent can’t see my profile on Actors Access

I recently created a profile and filled out every field. But my agent sees it all as blank. She says there should be a check box that says “viewable to agent” but I don’t see that anywhere. Does anyone know where it is?

What does "Difficult to Work With" *Really* mean?

Somewhat calling out a facet of our industry which is only modeled in our industry, not anywhere else (from what I've seen). We've heard the term "hard to work with" and we equate that to being a diva, being difficult or uncooperative, egotistical, and all...

Regarding Head Shots
