Where do they go?

When an actor plays a character that dies fairly early on in the movie, and that’s their only role in the movie, to die. What does the actor do during the rest of filming? Do they just chill around in the studio watching their fellow actors act? Or do they...

Any actors move from NYC or LA /travel the world & still audition?

I'm an actor and love to travel. I have a few decent credits I'm proud of and guest stars and this whole Covid thing makes me see so many leaving NYC/LA (too $$) and they don't have jobs and they are just putting their tapes on from back home from TX to FL to...

Advice on acting over the top/hammy/campy/however else you say it.

Alright, a bit of context. I'm a beginner beginner voice actor. In the sense that this is more or less my first time doing something like this, and I kinda need some advice since I can't screw this up, or at least, I don't want to. For context, I'm playing...

For NYC theatre/music actors - do you feel that Hollywood stars are taking your jobs or that there is still opportunity to be leads in Broadway?

So I love NYC and told everyone when I was 5 I would move there. At 18 I was living in the East Village and going to a major NYC college for writing & acting. But in my junior year, a teacher announced Neal Simon was going to off-Broadway. I felt really...

What classes do you recommend (I’m in NYC but I assume there’s are classes online for COVID, right?)

There are a lot of scams out there - or just actors out of work who want to make a buck. I’m a trained actor, I’ve worked professionally, but moving into voice acting is where I want to take my career full-time, eventually. I know there are no shortcuts. Are...

Looking for tips on how to sound more emotionless/boring.

I posted on a general subreddit but then realized I'd probably yield better results here, since most of you guys are voice actors. I want to have some fun narrating over some of my animations. But I want to do so without emotion, completely deadpan. I want my...

Your Hollywood dreams are over. So are mine. (Working LA-based actor - or at least I was)

Long post alert. I had to write this out and didn't have anywhere else to put it, so here goes. If you haven't already, look through these articles/interviews on the future of Hollywood production...

Can we talking about self-producing, and whether or not it's worth while to make a short film SAG, say if you are directing it, producing it, or acting in it, and want to submit to festivals?

Can you submit non union films to festivals? if you are a SAG actor but you are not acting in the short but only directing it, and all the actors are non union, can the film be non union? would it benefit you to make it SAG? does it literally not matter? I...

Asking for comparisons to the Neat King Bee

I am not so much a voice actor as I am a hobbyist audio engineer. Most of my friends and all of the people I work for are amateur voice actors who work from home. I've researched the Neat King Bee and have become really impressed with it. Wanted to know if...

I am a puppeteer and voice actor. I just finished an episode of my family friendly puppet show and wanted to share it with others interested in voice over. Puppeteering is a great way to exercise the craft.

Should you be a voice actor?

Picture this: never has your voice been called nice or soothing, if has no unique qualities and all you have is a sheer desire to act because you like it. The tone of your voice isn't low enough to be calming and good for narrations but not high enough to...
