Please contact me at Guardbrosky #7614 or contact in DMs for auditions. Pay rate is going to be at minimum 10 us dollars plus any donations directed towards you via paypal. When I say 'light male', I mean on the lighter side with less deep timbre.

Will being a victim of extortion stop me from being an actor? by Straight_Ear2996 • last post Aug 5th
This happened to me sadly, I am a male that exposed himself sadly and I was wondering if this'll stop me from achieving goals of being an actor. It was a foolish mistake and It's not like I hurt anyone, I know a lot of celebs have done things as well just would like some opinions, thank you!
Headshot-Age Range-Character Type Feedback by AutoModerator • last post Aug 5th
Use this thread to post your headshots for feedback, get info on your age range/type, find good headshot photographers, ask any questions you may have about headshots. If you are posting a DIY headshot for feedback, and not just a snapshot in order to get feedback on your age range/type/etc, it is advised that you do at least some basic research on what actor headshots look like--composition, framing, lighting. You will find a Google Image search for "actor headshots" to be very helpful for this. Non-professional shots are fine for age/typecasting; please keep in mind that one picture is a difficult way to go about this. Video of you moving and speaking would be ideal, but understandably more difficult to post. For what it's worth, the branding workshop at SAG-AFTRA recommends a five-year age range. That's inclusive, so for example 19-23, 25-29, 34-38, etc.
Are good looks essential in Hollywood for having an acting career? by Professional-Deal406 • last post Aug 5th
Some people say they are and some say they aren’t. Actresses like Charlie Theron and Margot Robbie or actors like Henry Cavill or Chris Hemsworth. Actors like Steve Buscemi or Judy Davis or even Tilda Swinton have never been particularly good looking and now in their 60s are still working in Hollywood film and television.

What is a good turnaround time? by FurmidableCat • last post Aug 5th
I see that many clients expect a 24 hours turnaround time, but I have other voice acting contracts that I need to work on and sometimes work as an on-camera actor/extra so I’m not able to do voice acting that day. I will usually be able to do it in 24 hours, I just can’t always guarantee it. This client wants us to work together for a year for the same rate (which is already lower than what I usually ask for) and I am afraid my life will change in a year so I will end up having more contracts as an actor/voice artist, so I’ll be less available and probably be worth a better rate per recorded minute. I am not sure I want to give priority to a client that already lowers my rate and wants me to agree to work for the same rate for a year, mostly since I don’t know what it is like to work with them. It’s for elearning. What would be a decent turnaround time? Is a 24h turnaround common and I should get used to it? Or what kind of turnaround should I offer?

Can the folks asking ‘Am I too old to start?’ ‘I don’t know where to begin, hallp!’ ‘I feel I’m too old/ugly/untalented/etc’ ‘How do I become FAMOUS w/o classes like *famous/talented actor*?’ ‘Do I have a chance, I’m *this certain race/financial status/we by Food_Pre-Chewer • last post Aug 5th
It’s getting super repetitive. First of all, there’s no right age, time to begin. Just do it. The fact that your sounding so unsure, makes it sound not desperate, but sounds like you’re not goin to give it your all. If age alone is going to deter you, oh boy, then this industry ain’t for you. There’s a lot of disappointment and rejections here. There are roles for everyone of different age, race, height, weight, look, there’s a place for everyone. Not every project is looking for the dashing leading man, Don Draper type. Not every project’s looking for a sexy ScarJo type. Just do it. Why did you go to preschool, middle school, high school when you were young? To learn. Don’t you think acting classes are the same deal? Take classes. No shortcuts. Do you think those ‘x actors’ you’re conparing journeys with didn’t have extensive training/experience prior? Those people have paid their dues and worked to get where they are, it wasn’t overnight. You think ‘newcomer’ (then) John Boyega just got scouted on the streets of London to becoming the face of the modern Star Wars movies? No, he’s been on loads of projects that you just hadn’t heard of. Stop saying ‘oh, so and so so, got their break with little to no traiining/experience, I can do it too’ The chances of that happening would be winning the Powerball TWICE. Do you have a chance? Sure. But you’re here asking, instead of dipping your toes in. How should I know if you can thrive in the industry? Maybe try it out first? Get out the do the work.
Agency Meeting by BMCA2001 • last post Aug 5th
I requested a meeting with a theatrical agent and got offered one with a commercial agent, which I also do not have? Should a beginning actor start off with a commercial before theatrical? Should I take the meeting to see what is up?
Help FInding Website by Snow-Owls-Howls • last post Aug 5th
Hi all! I'm drawing a blank on the name right now but I know it's still around. Several years ago I used a website that was FULL of videos for actors. It offered a couple of hours every month for free then a subscription to access the other videos (I think). It had hundreds of hours of videos from beginning acting to advanced improv but for the life of me, I can't recall the name. Does any of this sound familiar?
What's the best place to connect with Hollywood directors, talent agents and managers? by vasvisharma • last post Aug 4th

What does “loving” acting mean? by -dreamingflower- • last post Aug 4th
Hello! What do people mean when they say an actor “loves” acting? Is it the whole process of crafting? The performing? I often struggle with enjoying the crafting component, but I do enjoy the performance aspect of it. Does that mean I do not love acting?
How can I interview a voice actor? by BobsBurgerLover1998 • last post Aug 3rd
Hi so I was thinking about interviewing Jordan Fry or Daniel Hansen about their roles as Lewis or other stuff they did. Or maybe even others too but how can I interview them? R they open to interviews? I have to do this online? And maybe I want to interview the voice actor of Wilbur too? I got inspired by this YouTube who interviewed Annick Obonsawin too. Anybody have something to say?
hey fellow actors. i made a zoom feel free to join if you would like. https://us04web.zoom.us/j/78153863034?pwd=YjE0U2VrSSt5L1BZSi9zRlNmQmlPQT09 by Ill-Measurement-4966 • last post Aug 3rd
UK/London actors, what are you currently doing for a survival job? by Ambitious_Ticket • last post Aug 3rd
What sort of work are you currently doing to pay the bills? I'm just looking for ideas, I feel stuck between a rock and a hard place. Honestly the hardest part of this career is just maintaining the lifestyle required to have even a chance of succeeding. Pre pandemic I was in hospitality for events which had amazing flexibility but the pay was unsustainable with the cost of London and my rent is low considering. Before that I was in retail part-time, covered all my expenses which was great but had zero flexibility/shift swapping for auditions and I only had so many sick days. I've been freelance video editing as of recent which is great but most of my time is spent looking for the work and I'd rather use that time to make my own material, progressing my acting career. I've heard a lot about RSVP, the call centre for actors. Seems a bit like marmite. For some it works, others it doesn't. Would love to know more if any of you are currently there. Just started applying to pubs/bars/restaurants. Sounds ridiculous but I've always hesitated with these due to Christmas opening hours and that being one of the only times I get to see my family as they live some hours outside of London and work like crazy. They're getting older and time with them is extremely important to me. Anyone found anything that works great for them? Would love to know.
How hard is it to book commercials? by newCoder250 • last post Aug 3rd
I'm completely new to acting and I honestly would love to do a commercial. I don't have any dreams of being a Hollywood movie star actor, but doing commercials/plays on the weekend sounds very fun to me. Is booking commercials super difficult for an actor?
