Non union and equity PRINCIPAL auditions

What's the etiquette here? As a non union actor can I go to an equity principal audition and possibly be seen? Or are they specifically for emc and equity actors? Confusion on the dos and donts of epas, and I'm perfect for the production.

Anyones face ever twitch while on stage?

I am an actress, I have been acting around 8 years now, and only recently have I noticed when I get into character, my lips, and sometimes my eyebrows start twitching. Does anyone else ever get this? is there any way to stop it happening?

Looking for either people's experience, or biographies to read...

The other day I was talking to an artist (mixed media, mostly watercolor painting) about what I desire in a career in acting and I told her that I want to be able to walk onto a set or a stage and be able to see in the other actor's faces their sense of trust...

Working with a difficult actor

So I'm pretty new to film acting and my fellow actor (who was slightly more experienced) was actually nice enough, however there were some things that started to really bother me about him throughout the process. The first thing is, he was a backseat...

How much do you weigh/what is your size?

How do talented Actors like Oscar Isaac and Adam Driver work on multiple roles in a year?

It's insane how a person especially like Oscar Isaac shifts between multiple roles in a given year (I.E. Star Wars Force Awaken; X-men Apocalypse; Show me a Hero). Adam Driver also does the same thing. His body went through drastic changes , going from thick...

Introverted actors out there -- how do you expose yourself in acting when it's hard to expose yourself in personal life?

((lmao is "expose" bad wording)) I ghost this subreddit because I'm really into film, but to be frank I'm also very interested in the art of acting itself. For years I've thought about what it would be like to act but it's always been just that way-- a...

Just finished recording a monologue from a Christopher Nolan movie. Question is, is it cool to mimic the source actor's mannerisms and inflection? I definitely got into character and delivered from feeling. It wasn't exactly like the source actor, but it was...

Can I self-submit if I sign with an agency?

I'm wondering if it is better to wait to get more indie short film credits before signing with an agency. Can I keep self-submitting once I sign with an agency or should 100% rely on them? What if they only submit frequent booking actors?
