Getting Called in a lot, but never getting called back.

Hi! I get called in by the same big LA casting director pretty frequently. Probably once every other month. In the last 12 months, I've auditioned around 6 times for him. I always feel like my auditions are really solid, but I never even get a callback. I've...

How To Get Into Character - GUIDE

First off, we have to dispel the illusion of character. When people say *“I’m trying to get into character”* usually it’s them trying to reach for some magical thing so far outside of themselves. As if somehow they are going to lose all consciousness and wake...

Thoughts on the website, "Casting Networks"

I currently use Backstage and Actor's Access to apply for roles. However, I saw an article online saying that after Backstage, Casting Network is the second best site to be a part of. Am I missing out on a lot by not being on Casting Networks? Or do people...

Hey guys! I’ve been practicing a career in voice acting since I was younger, and I’ve been improving and improving as the years go on, but I really think I can stand to be better. For instance, some of my voices sound wayyy too much like myself/how I usually...

Aspiring screenwriter here! Thank you all so much for the input. Now, hear me out!

Hello to everyone that responded to my last post about crafting characters and writing actor bait. All of you were wonderfully honest and some of you were awesomely pedantic (I loved it. Really, don't change). So, r/screenwriting has this thing that we do...

How to convey emotion when singing? What are your tips on sounding hopeless and miserable?

TLDR: during very emotional singing scenes I sound like a happy 6yo running through sunflower fields, due to my voice type (and I can't change that). What can I do as an actor to bring hopelessness across, only using my voice? I'm going to need it while I...

Some my voice acting buddies and I have been practicing our talents by making our own videos with some of the only tools we have at our disposal "Video Games." We've learned so much about what goes into the entire production, making us better Writers, Act

We are still amateurs and are always looking to hone our talent as voice actors. But by stepping out of our voice acting comfort zones and doing other jobs inside the entertainment industry like writing, filming, editing, and so on. We feel even more prepared...

Acting isn't going to happen in a serious way for me any time soon, but it will be something I work on over time. For now I'm focusing on becoming a better filmmaker. I'm looking for some advice on finding actors to work with on a short film I'm writing.

I live in Colorado Springs for the time being and I'm working on writing my own screenplay for a short film. I'm in talks about moving to L.A. to work on a Hollywood movie along side the directors but nothing is set in stone right now. I want to make my own...
