Voice actors for 2D animation short film from Gobelins School (Paris) by No-Breadfruit-511 • last post Jan 6th
Hello all ! ☺️ We are a team of 5 final year students* from the school "Gobelins, l'école de l'image", one of top school for animation filmaking. Gobelins graduation movies are published on Youtube (https://youtube.com/@gobelins) every year. We are currently directing our graduation movie, a 5min action/drama movie. It takes place in a fantasy world inspired by Uganda and features a group of rowdy kids. We are looking for several volunteering voice actors for kids voice as well as one adult male voice. Due to our movie taking place in Uganda, we are looking in priority for voice actors with Ugandan or East Africa background. The dialogues will be english. We have a studio for sound recording at Gobelins school if you reside in Paris, otherwise if you have the appropriate setup for clean voice recording, you could do it from home :) Due to NDA we can't post too much on the movie but can send an animatic and more info/concept art to applicant. The school does not give us any budget for voice acting so unfortunatly we are looking for volunteers. But you will be free to use the movie for your voice demoreel afterward. Contact us at : clemence.drion@edu.gobelins.fr Feel free to send a voice demo if you already have one otherwise we will provide you with some test lines ;) Thank you very very much! Have a nice day and thanks for reading *our team consist of three african students and two europeans :) sorry english is not my native language!!
What is Los Angeles really like for job-searching actors? by mountainrover • last post Jan 6th
What is LA really like? I may want to try out casting down there is it ok or is it ruthless? I am sixty and I was thinking of going down there to live and try out for older-man and character roles and I am 6'7" tall and British (accent) so I have some distinguishing factors meaning the pool of people going up for parts I would be up for would be way smaller. I have a modest monthly income and my daytimes are completely free and flexible (for auditions) Or am I talking donkey-doo? lol :) PS an I do LA auditions by video now?

Headshot-Age Range-Character Type Feedback by AutoModerator • last post Jan 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.
Crooked face by snailcosworld • last post Jan 5th
I have a noticeably crooked face. And it’s not just me saying that, like my upper and bottom lip don’t line up straight with each other. Can I still become an actor? This might be a dumb question but I want to know.
Being cancelled by fkflf0 • last post Jan 5th
My career hasn’t even started yet and after introspection, it seems I’ve behaved liked an toxic unhinged harasser (purely platonic, nothing sexual) towards an actress friend. I can’t apologize to her since she’s blocked me. So, I know I’m being a navel-gazing selfish and self-centered person by saying this but ; should I give up on acting ? Cuz now I fear getting cancelled if I ever make it.
Following Agencies on Instagram by actress_writer101 • last post Jan 5th
There are certain agencies (on my wish list) that I follow on Instagram to see what their clients are up to. They post a lot of "booked it" stories and posts on behalf of their clients. I like them because it makes me happy to see fellow actors booking. But I wanted to ask: will it affect my chances of signing with any of these agencies if I like their posts? I always thought that they'd want people to like their posts, and it's useful for me because if I want to get back to the post and research the show or the actor, it's easy to find.
What is the best school or place to become a film actor? by CloseCry6 • last post Jan 5th
Not huge on stage performances. I know a lot of these MFAs are for more stage acting. I'm planning to take an intro acting class at my local community college. I already have an undergraduate degree in an unrelated field.
Did a little digging; should I reach out directly? by Bellatrix_855 • last post Jan 5th
So I found a role on Actors Access on a local film that is perfect for me! I submitted the day it was posted (today). I’m just starting out so I have no substantial reel so I did not submit any video, just a photo and description under “notes”. I did some research and found both the Casting Director and Casting Associate’s email. They’re names were listed on the posting. I know that hundreds of people are submitting for the same role, so would it be beneficial to email them today just reiterating my interest in the role? Is that generally favorable or looked down upon?

How to be a part of projects in the US as an acting student, and how to stay after the end of my training/education? by Clock-Ticking • last post Jan 5th
Hello everyone!! New to the sub and looking for help. I'm from South America, work in the tech industry, and for 2 years now, everytime i've had time to reflect on my life my thoughts gravitate towards acting. In that time, i revisited this sub a thousand times, and i understand that i'm a beginner and if i want to enter the us market as a foreigner i must excel at the craft, get training, enough experience, apply for an 01 visa... That being said, i can work remotely, so moving out of my home country to pursue this urge aligns with other aspects of my life too, and since i have to get training anyway, might as well go to a place where i have more options/oportunities. So, i've been looking for places where i can get good training and experience, and the US is the first o the list (feel free to give me other suggestions). Now for the questions: Can i "work" on projects as a student/actor and get credits? Is there a way of staying in the US to further pursue acting after my training ends? And does that apply for non degree training programs (Stella Adler, NYCDA...)?
Portraying vs. Feeling by StudySafe1982 • last post Jan 5th
Let's take sadness. Most acting coaches tell you that the audience can see through fake tears and will know if you're not truly sad but merely faking sadness. But I think you can totally get away with just portraying an emotion. I've seen it happen. Actors just simply going through the motions of a certain emotion instead of actually feeling it. So basically all their work is external and focused on making certain movements, tonal inflections, facial expressions... But they're never actually in the state of mind of their character. I mean, there's this one famous actress who even openly admitted she doesn't produce her tears naturally. She just jawns without opening her mouth. So maybe you don't actually have to be connected to your character and can just fake it?
