I'm an Cartoon Artist Looking to work with a Sports/Entertainment Genre Voice Over Actor by travisbklein • last post May 4th
Hey what's up all I have been googling around and decided why not post here. So I'm an cartoon artist and I want to start a youtube channel doing documentaries about sports/entertainment celebrities. I have already completed the drawings/cartoons for several documentaries, one about Lebron, one about Elon Musk, but I have so many more ideas that are on queue. I mean in the end I'd like to partner with a trustworthy person and share in the profits from the youtube videos we make but to start off I would understand the voice over actor wanting to be paid so that is totally cool with me. If you are interested in celebrities and sports I'd love to chat and maybe we can work together.

Where to find diverse voice actors? by Mission_Dog_2748 • last post May 4th
I know this question might sound weird, especially because voice acting is an art form that doesn’t require the actor to show their face, but I think it’s important to have a voice actor that matches the character and can understand them better. Luckily I have a lot of time to figure this out (I’m no where near the casting stage of this project) but it’s still frustrating. The problem I’m running into though is that it’s very hard to find voice actors that fit certain demographics. If I search up Nigerian voice actors, I just find a bunch of people doing Nigerian accents with no background. And then maybe three people who actually fit the description. And if I try to search something up less well known, like earlier today I was trying to find Yup’ik voice actors, basically nothing comes up at all. I know that logically when looking for specific people with specific backgrounds, the pickings are going to be smaller. But it seems ridiculous that I can only find like, three people voice acting for a population that is in the thousands, all with internet access. Is there somewhere else I could find people? Or somewhere else to be looking? A better way to search? ANY advice is appreciate.

Is it legit if a casting director reaches out to you? by AYamPapaya22 • last post May 4th
Title says the basic question: So, I self-taped for an open casting call, and submitted a first audition, alongside a headshot and CV. For the record, this was on Backstage, and I know some people have very controversial opinions about that website. But moving on, now I’m in the second round of auditions, and the casting director reached out to me directly letting me know I’d made the cut, and sending me the script slides for the next round. I looked online for his name and production company, and everything else checks out. If I double-triple-quadruple checked him out, is this normal? I’ll quote his email below: Good afternoon [REDACTED], I just want to introduce myself quickly, as I am usually busy casting with other projects outside of [REDACTED] Productions. I usually have someone reach out on my behalf. My name is [REDACTED] and I am the head of [REDACTED]’s casting, and have been in the film and TV industry since the age of 5. You may be asking yourself why I would be reaching out to you directly. After having had your information sent to me, I was very impressed by not only your profile, but also your drive, as I don’t see that passion from a lot of actors. I would like to ask you myself if you would be interested in continuing your audition process for [REDACTED]. If you still are, please reply to this email as soon as possible, and I will send you the slides as soon as I can.

The beginning of my career by ThinkDifferentMan • last post May 3rd
Hello everyone! I am a new (like very new) actor who lives in LA and I am starting my acting career this summer. I have been studying acting for about 5 years (not in school) through scripts, movie breakdowns, character analysis and general youtube videos. I am a newbie to on-set work but not a newbie on what to expect from this industry. My one and only question is **what should I do to get a good jumpstart this summer so I can have a good foundation for the future?** Anything is helpful!

High school junior who's looking into acting, what should I do once I graduate? by jjozens • last post May 3rd
Hey everyone, so I'll just cut to the chase here. I'm looking into acting after high school and I don't really know exactly where to start. I'm currently taking drama and I'm learning methods on how to deliver on camera, loosing myself up, etc., but I wanna know what I should do once I graduate. I've looked into acting schools but I've seen from multiple sources that casting directors won't even acknowledge you unless you went to a top-of-the-line school, and I haven't even been able to find any schools that would be considered one of those. Basically, I just wanna know from any experienced actors what options are ideal for me to look into. Should I take acting classes on the side while going to college? Or should I focus all my time into acting if I wanna take it seriously? If anyone can help me out, that would be absolutely wonderful. Thanks! P.S. I hope everyone here is able to accomplish their dreams and find a gig soon! :)
Newbie Actor—looking for advice on demo reel and acting(mostly focusing on honing my skills before worrying about anything else) by Carpe_fckn_diem • last post May 3rd
Strange? by Fit-Factor988 • last post May 3rd
I think it’s so crazy how when I was self submitting on actors access I wouldn’t really get callbacks or book and now that I have an agent and go out for bigger things I do get callbacks and book work, anyone else have that?
I am a director and want to learn how to better direct actors by MasterGuig • last post May 3rd
Good day actors, I am a filmmaker from Montreal, and even though I have a few short films under my belt, I feel that working with actors is by far my greatest weakness. I would like to know from your point of view what you think are the best ways for a director to work with actors. What are the dos and donts that you've seen directors do. What is helpful to you and what do you feel is a waste of time? Basically, what do you wish directors did more, and what do you wish they did less? And not just on set, but everything from the casting call to the premiere. Thank you for your help!

Who are the very best acting managers in NY? by hossadog • last post May 3rd
Hi guys! I’m an established actor (re-occurring on a huge streaming series), and still having trouble securing good representation if you can believe that baloney. People keep telling me that its because I’m not a 19 year old hot chick. I would have thought more doors would open after my third year on this series, but very few reps in LA seem motivated to talk with me and the ones that have… well they couldn’t get me an audition at an open casting call if they tried. So I’ve decided to pivot to NY… I love NY and figure my schtick may fly a little higher. I think I have a look that’s less CW and more a dude trying to hustle you in a back alley card game anyway. So, I’m looking for a new manager and wanted to know if anyone had a list of NY managers that are truly great, have a good reputation and are worth their salt? I ask because the last NY manager I had ran off with my cash, in retrospect that was my bad… the track marks on his arm should have been a red flag. Thank you so much! Appreciate whatever insights you all share!
How's the British Acting Scene? by Cumquatinator • last post May 3rd
So I'm thinking about doing a bit of a career switch and moving from film production into acting. A lot of my work that I do is in Bristol, UK and was wondering how the acting gigs are over there? I know some people say that London is the place to be for it but I don't think I could live in London - I've grown too attached to Bristol. Any pointers for a newbie actor making a transition from one career to another?
Acting as non-native English speaker by cats_schroedinger • last post May 3rd
I was wondering if it would be realistic to become an actor for English productions without being a native speaker. Does anyone have experience with this or has examples of actors?
PAID VA work for male actors for adult brand, up to $400/per hour of audio recorded for the right talent! by hereyesonly • last post May 3rd
Best Kept Secret is an erotica brand that focuses on audios for women (mostly so far but planning to expand this in the future) to enjoy, read by men. We do scripts ranging from Victorian romances to more BDSM style stuff. We are looking for someone great at acting, pacing, getting in the mood, dirty talk and creating sexual tension and of course with a sexy voice + a decent mic. You MUST be comfortable with NSFW material and over 18 of course! At the present we can pay up to $400 per hour of raw audio for the right talent. Typically we start at $125/hr to establish a working relationship and then increase it from there. But like I say it is really dependent on how our audience reacts to the content that determines this initial rate. Past erotica/NSFW voice acting experience is great but not a necessity at all. We add the SFX and editing, it's just the raw audio you would be required to perform (no post or extra production essentially) To audition, please submit a 2-3 minute sample (including both SFW and NSFW segments) through this form [**HERE**](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1yf1OWelXKCmswf_Y5G_ERUjrpxtUI5wn9sR8mJhZLJQ/edit). You need to provide a MP3 or WAV sample of the attached script in that form. Any other questions about the process please DM or email me at [rob@yourbestkeptsecret.co.uk](mailto:rob@yourbestkeptsecret.co.uk)
